• Having Alexis as my doula was an absolute God send. As a healthcare professional, following the evidence/data is very important to me. Alexis was very knowledgeable and made me feel empowered to make informed decisions for myself. She was supportive from my very first interaction with her and followed up with me after my OBGYN appointments throughout my pregnancy. I know that she cares about my well-being and helping me create the birthing experience I wanted. It was invaluable having someone to ask questions about ALL the random things: from using my breast pump, hanging canvas in the baby room, and explaining how to use my car seat to walking me through the birth process, alternative pain relief methods, and holding my hand during delivery. I was induced in the hospital with an epidural. A doula really is necessary for every type of birth and Alexis made me feel comfortable choosing the birthing plan that was right for me. My only regret was not hiring her sooner! Her pre and postpartum care kit were the absolute best and contained so many helpful items. I really can’t thank her enough ❤️

  • Once becoming a client of Doula in the City I was at ease. Not only was Alexis knowledgeable and supportive, she was also transparent which made be feel comfortable with asking questions. Not only was Alexis available when needed, she was also consistent with following up with me during the course of my pregnancy and postpartum. Alexis was by my side during the entire 22 hours of my labor. She was an advocate for me with medical staff to ensure that all of my needs were met. Once my sweet baby girl arrived, Alexis remained present and assisted with breastfeeding. Alexis didn’t disappear during postpartum! She continued to be a support and informative. Alexis completed home visits, referred us to a reliable pediatrician, assisted with breastfeeding, and ensured that I was mentally stable. My daughter is now going on 6months, and Alexis is still available if needed. “Doula in the City” was a Great 1st decision I made as a parent. ”

  • “Being a first time mom, I had no idea what to expect during labor and delivery. I was so nervous about finding a doula who would make me feel comfortable as labor is an extremely intimate process. After meeting Lex, I immediately knew I wanted her to be our doula! She was extremely knowledgeable and confident in her role as a doula. Lex made it the most calming setting for me to welcome my son into.I truly believe my body responded so well because my doula thoroughly helped me prepare for labor & delivery. We were so incredibly blessed to have her by our side! My delivery was the most beautiful & calming process I have ever experienced and there is no doubt that our doula had a major part to play in that! ”

  • “DITC helped me get my whole nursery together from washing baby clothes, organizing my sons closet, putting together furniture, and so much more. I didn’t know everything I needed but she did. She helped me stay organized for the first year of my son’s life. I can’t imagine another pregnancy without her presence.”

  • “Having Alexis as a Doula was nothing short of amazing! She is such a kind person and genuinely listens to your concerns/needs as a pregnant mama. She is extremely knowledgeable and provides you with so many helpful tips to get you and your partner through your pregnancy. I recommend her, a full 10/10. I most definitely look forward to utilizing her again in the future!”

  • Having Alexis as my Doula was an overall phenomenal experience. As a first time mom it was so easy for me to get overwhelmed and afraid of the process. However, she stood by my side every step of the way speaking life into not only me, but my partner and baby as well! She was so knowledgeable, transparent, and confident providing so many tips for me as a mommy before, during, and after birth. I can honestly say from the guides and long nights I stayed up researching we were mentally and physically OVER PREPARED for delivery. I was able to confidently advocate for myself, which was very important to us. My 3 days of labor with Alexis by my side had the entire hospital staff in awe at the level of compassion, confidence, and support she displayed. Nothing about birthing a child is easy and doesn’t always go as planned, but with Alexis, Doula in the City, as my doula I KILLED IT! She encouraged and motivated me to allow God and my body do their thing. From the initial consultation up until the last postpartum visit, she met and exceeded my expectations. I can’t thank her enough for making my birthing experience peaceful, sacred, warm, active, fun, beautiful, and memorable! Me and Alexis just celebrated the 1 month of Baby Autumn during our postpartum home visit with great conversation and many pictures! Looking forward to sharing and celebrating many more milestones with Doula in The City!!

  • My experience with Alexis was phenomenal! I knew I needed someone to guide and advocate for me with my second birth and Alexis did just that and more ! With Alexis being by my side and preparing me for birth, I felt so confident throughout the whole process. I was able to stick to my birth plan and have a natural birth that I desired. She is very knowledgeable, caring and nurturing. When I had any questions during my pregnancy I was able to reach out to her anytime of the day. She even prepared my husband by teaching him different techniques he could do that would help me manage pain during labor. I highly recommend Alexis service and will be using her again in the future for baby #3 :)

  • Having an amazing birth experience starts with picking the right team and I made no mistake choosing Alexis as our doula! From the very beginning she was very personable, understanding and professional. Anytime I voiced concerns, had doubts or simply didn’t know something she quickly settled things and walked me through whatever it was. I had an unfortunate situation of suddenly switching healthcare providers well into my pregnancy but Alexis was very hands on and helpful with recommendations and getting established elsewhere. I saw early on that Alexis had my best interest and I had no problem trusting her. Durning labor my love and respect for her went through the roof! She was literally the best! Very attentive, hands on, supportive and firm (but with love) when needed🤣 She was also very supportive when it came to my partner. He was very hesitant and unsure about the entire concept but she educated him, constantly reassured him and made sure he felt comfortable well before labor. During labor she never left him out, she included him every step of the way so they were able to work together. I could go on and on but let’s just say Alexis will be the first person I call my next pregnancy, I will not be doing a birth without her

  • Birth work has always been a passion for Alexis. I can remember years ago Meeting Alexis I knew that being a Doula was a part of her calling. When I got pregnant it was a no brainer that I wanted Alexis to be apart of my birthing team! Already having a relationship with Alexis made the Doula experience more personable. Alexis could relate my work + life balance to the birthing day of my baby girl! She helped me build a birth plan and made me aware of all the possibilities that could arise. Alexis also taught me the importance of moving and stretching to make labor a little bit more manageable! In the arise of difficulty Alexis was at my side to help me make the best decision for my baby’s health! I recommend Alexis to service anyone during their pregnancy because she cares about the outcome and overall experience of your pregnancy!

  • I never knew how much I needed Alexis! I had already had two babies prior to even seeking doula services. With the first two being unmediated vaginal births, one would think I wouldn’t even need a doula for my third. That was absolutely wrong. Alexis was the piece I had been missing. She made everything make sense and come together flawlessly. From the wealth of knowledge during our prenatal visits to the amazing support during postpartum, Alexis made me feel the most comfortable. She always had an answer to my questions or knew where to find it. She worked together with my Midwife to specifically discuss my birthing needs. She was there every step of the way, even if she couldn’t physically be there, she set me up with someone just as good! My experience with Alexis was by far phenomenal. She definitely set the bar. I would recommend 100% of my expecting mothers to experience her services!
