Catherine Thuruthumaly   Words cannot explain how helpful Martha was in my journey of pregnancy. I not only gained a doula but a great friend. She is always available and puts you at ease through a very stressful time.

H.S. You helped me deliver my son naturally! Best thing I've ever done. I could not have had a better guide, support, energy beside me. Thank you, you are forever part of our lives. 

Kelsey It was such a pleasure working with Martha as my doula. I had deeply embedded fears about pregnancy and childbirth that she helped me work through during my pregnancy, and she was always available for support when I needed it. Our sessions were educational and so helpful. My hospital birth was beautiful (despite my fear of hospitals), and I truly believe that Martha's support is a huge reason.. She helped guide me into different positions, kept me and my husband calm, and was just a beautiful resource to have there with me. I could not reccommend her enough. I learned so much from her that I didn't get from my OB and it made all the difference. Thank you Martha!!

Martha is truly a star at what she does ! Her holistic approach to healing and empowerment was simply amazing. From the first antenatal visit to postpartum visits, Martha's professional, caring attitude was so endearing. .
I would highly recommend Martha's services to anyone in need !!

My husband and I hired Martha as our doula for our first birth. We met her and immediatley were drawn to her welcoming and calming demeanor. She is a keen listener and very respectful. After making the official decision to have a doula for this birth, I was immediatley put at ease that we would have someone quite experienced to go along with us for the remainder of my pregnancy. When I went into labor, Martha was the first person I called. I trusted her and felt like she was a long time friend.

When I first learned what a doula was, I knew I wanted to work with one if I got pregnant.  I met with many doulas in the Milwaukee area who seemed wonderful, but I felt a connection with Martha. Not only was she aware of size discrimination in healthcare (I'm a person of size), but she's had experience...

"I had a WONDERFUL experience having Martha as my doula for my first child. She brings positivity and an open heart to every meeting - exactly what you would wish for in a pregnancy/birthing coach. Martha was great at answering all my questions throughout my pregnancy and during postpartum. She was always quick to respond and provided me with great resources. She is very non-judgemental and I always felt comfortable around her. Best of all, she made me feel EMPOWERED. My birth was a long one - 24 + hours - and Martha was there supporting me and my birth wishes the entire time. She interacted well with the hospital staff and provided suggestions to help my labor progress. My husband and I are looking forward to having her as our doula again when we have our second child!"

Martha was initially my prenatal yoga instructor but, once I learned that she was a doula, I was eager to know more about her. ;;; She raised many questions that I had not thought of and I was grateful for her guidance! Additionally, she would guide me through some gentle yoga poses and stretches to help with my lower back pain and also process my emotions regarding my pregnancy and labor. When I went into labor, she remained a calm and supportive force.  It was reassuring to see multiple nurses and my doctor recognize her and have a positive experience with her in the room. Everyone acknowledged that they enjoyed working with her.  Martha also provided me with 12 hours of postpartum care which was an invaluable experience. It was great to have somebody to watch my baby while I did something to take care of myself like shower, nap, grocery shop or cook a small meal. Those moments helped me get back to feeling like myself after the birth!  If you are looking for a kind, understanding and supportive doula, Martha is your girl. Thank you so much Martha!!!
