“Attentive to not only me, but also my husband.”

Chelsea was amazing during the pregnancy all the way through delivery. During labor she was attentive to not only me, but also my husband. She kept me calm and knew what I needed before I did 😊
If you are wanting hire a doula, I highly recommend Chelsea 💜

“Responsive and dependable!”

Choosing Olive Branch Doula Services was the best decision I made for my birth. As a first time mom, there were a lot of unknowns-with Chelsea by my side, it made every step less daunting! She was responsive and dependable, not to mention a genuinely enjoyable person. Her knowledge, experience, and enjoyment of her work shines through at any given moment. She also prepared my husband on how to best support me, which was critical for my long labor! I would recommend her services to everyone and use her myself for any future pregnancies!

“Everything I wanted!”

A 5-star review wont do justice to how incredible it was and THANKFUL I am for having Chelsea as my doula!!! From the day I met her to my postpartum visit with her, she was there for me when I needed her and went above and beyond to ensure that even the moments I didn’t realize I needed someone, she was THERE. During my pregnancy: whether it was a birth knowledge question, an empathetic ear that would empower me when I was fearful or doubtful of a pregnancy symptom or a part of the process in birth, someone to just check in and make sure I was doing okay, Chelsea was my person. During BIRTH: this is coming from someone that had their birth plan absolutely flipped due to complications, Chelsea made my birth feel like it was everything I had wanted. Truly. She advocated for me, set the tone of the room and process, PREPARED ME, got my husband and my loved ones involved as I had originally wanted, coached me through every step of the way and helped me feel good about my decisions, and stayed by my side as whatever I needed until she saw I was at peace with my loved ones and my baby. I can say on the other end, with my precious baby girl in my arms, I am not even close to having to “grieve” my birth experience (when it could have been a very traumatic experience) because Chelsea ensured I was covered all the way through. Postpartum: everything is new for this mama and Chelsea has ensured that I am doing emotionally, physically, and mentally well. She gave the best tips, the best mama empowerment and knowledge as I step into this new chapter, and has continued to support me. The only thing I can hope is that my next pregnancy, she’ll be around because I cannot imagine birth without her. To think I almost did not know if I should invest in a doula…. But even my parents and my husband cannot imagine not having had HER around. DO YOURSELF THE BEST FAVOR AND INVESTMENT IN PREGNANCY AND BOOK CHELSEA AS YOUR DOULA!!!!

“Calm, every step of the way”

Chelsea was great and I definitely recommend her to anyone wanting a doula! From the first conversation I had with her, I knew I wanted to work with her. She answered every question and concern we had and I felt very comfortable with her. I was very scared when my baby ended up coming earlier than expected but she made sure to keep me calm every step of the way. She was very attentive and got me everything I needed and wanted. I couldn’t have done it without her!

“Valuable Resource”

We hired a doula to help with my wife’s delivery, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Initially, I wasn’t entirely sure about hiring a doula, but now I would strongly encourage anyone to hire one, especially Chelsea. She was incredible in soothing my wife, getting her into comfortable positions, and assisting in the delivery of our baby.
The entire birthing experience was phenomenal, largely thanks to her expertise and care. She was a valuable resource well before the birth, providing us with guidance and support, and even after the delivery, she continued to offer her help and advice. She answered all our questions, brought materials like essential oils to help soothe us, advocated for our wishes, and thoroughly explained the pros and cons of various decisions and procedures.
Her support made a world of difference, and we highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a dedicated and compassionate doula.

When things don’t go to “plan”…

Chelsea is absolutely amazing. I reached out to her when I was about 4 months pregnant. We met out at an IHOP to discuss my requests and address my questions. She came prepared and discussed the process. She is extremely knowledgeable and had plenty of advice alone with instructions. From that day on I knew we would need her by our side. I wanted a natural labor, but when it hit 40 weeks things became complicated. She spent all night with me until my contractions got to be 2 minutes apart. We rushed to the hospital. She stayed with me the whole time. This was my first child and when they sent me home. She was so comforting and consoling. I had a very tough long induction over a week later. She kept my husband informed in the room and helped me do everything I wanted to do. And when it came to it, I did have to have a cesarean. She kept me feeling strong in my choice and informed to all my decisions. I could not thank her enough for all she did by my side. I will have her at the birth of all my children in the future and would highly reccomend her to anyone. First time or fifth time going through any labor.

Truly a blessing”

There’s not enough that I can say about Chelsea! She’s been so communicative and informative during our journey and you can tell she is extremely passionate about what she does. I enjoy our home visits and honestly, it’s like having conversations with a big sister! You would not be disappointed in her services, she truly wants you to succeed and be informed of what you need to know for both yourself and baby! She is truly a blessing 🙂

Amazing Resource”

Chelsea is an amazing resource and was a crucial part of my birthing team. My birth plans changed multiple times, and we are so grateful to have had her there beside us for support through the thick of it.

A literal tornado!”

I hired Chelsea to be my doula and to help me with additional post partum care. I initially wanted her help just for the hospital part to have person (not in my family) to be “on my team” in the hospital but I am so thankful I found her, because she knew exactly what I needed, when I didn’t – before, during, and after the birth. Chelsea was able to educate us beforehand, keep me calm and comforted through the labor process, and assist afterward with all things baby. I was able to have the most beautiful birth with Chelsea’s assistance and advocation for my choices, when I was in my head during my labor in the hospital and when extreme external forces were going on outside- including a literal tornado Chelsea was composed and peaceful and helped me breathe showing me exactly what to do and she just handled everything seamlessly, without me escalating or getting worked up or emotionally charged. I really needed her and I am so so happy I found her. It’s hard to find the right words to describe how much she truly helped me through this process of bringing new life into the world and after the birth into the first weeks of newborn life. Forever grateful. Thank you for being our doula. xxoo

“Exceptional Support”

My partner and I had the incredible privilege of working with Olivia Branch Doula Services as our doula during the birth of our first child, and we cannot express enough how grateful we are for her exceptional support and care throughout the entire journey.

From our very first meeting, she made us feel comfortable and at ease. She took the time to get to know us, understand our preferences and concerns, and provided us with comprehensive information about the birthing process. Her calm and nurturing demeanor immediately reassured us that we were in capable hands through our birthing experience.

“I gained my power back”

I’m a first time mama that knew absolutely nothing! I have read so many reviews and watched disappointing and sad videos on experiences of pregnancy and birth leaving so many women with PTSD ( Thanks to Olive Branch Doula Services, i did not experience that ). Every step of the way i was extremely anxious! I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and had severely low iron after conceiving. There’s a lot of misinformation out there which caused even more stress. UNTIL i came across Olive Branch Doula Services! Chelsea helped me EVERY step of the way! She helped me gain my power back and at the same time helped me ground myself with so much peace. She helped me understand that i make all the calls with everything from doctor visits down to my labor at the hospital! She never left my side and successfully executed every request i had in place for my birth plan including pain management! I could NOT have done this without her!! It warms my heart to know that i have a successful and encouraging birth story to tell other moms and i give all thanks to Olive Branch Doula Services!

A Redemption Birth!

With my first pregnancy I had a traumatic birth experience. I felt isolated, confused, and still suffer from PTSD related to it and a long NICU experience. This left me terrified when I found out I was pregnant again. Chelsea has helped me accept and process things about my first birth that nobody else has helped me with. She’s made me feel validated even 3 years later.

Throughout this second pregnancy she gave me tips and tricks to follow and asked me to trust her, and I’m so glad I did! This labor and birth experience was so much different and something I felt proud of. She made me feel confident! It helped heal trauma I had been holding onto for years. She supported me while I labored from home, helped me work through my pain. She advocated for me at the hospital regarding my birth plan. She has continued to follow up with me upon getting home, providing even more support. If you’re debating getting a doula, do it! And pick Chelsea because she’s amazing at what she does!
