Speaks Spanish

  • "I felt so nurtured and well that I truly believe I healed a lot of trauma and fear. I couldn't have made it without Erica. Every time someone asks for my pregnancy and delivery history, it all starts with, "Erica is an amazing doula, and by her side, all went smoothly and warmly." Time flies; Owen is 7 months old, and I feel ready to start planning my third baby. As soon as the pregnancy news is confirmed, I'll let her know, and I hope and wish she'll be by my side again. I want Erica, I need Erica, and I don't want to do it again if she is not in the picture."

  • "Erica is incredibly knowledgeable and a true blessing during my postpartum journey. As a first-time mom with my first full-term pregnancy, I was new to breast pumping and she guided me through it with patience and quick, responsive support. Although I didn't work with her for long, the short time we had together was valuable, and I am so grateful for her help."

  • "Erica was amazing, and I’m so grateful to have had her for both my delivery and postpartum care. She is incredibly professional, knowledgeable about natural birth and newborn care, and always responded quickly with helpful guidance whenever I had questions. She also has a natural gift with babies, our son adored her, and she taught us so many practical ways to understand and care for him. Even outside our scheduled hours during those overwhelming first weeks, Erica was there whenever we needed her. We truly couldn’t have gotten through the early postpartum period without her, and I wholeheartedly recommend her."

  • "Erica has such a warm, caring presence and has been an incredible source of support during my postpartum journey. She made me feel comfortable from day one and always answered my questions with kindness, compassion, and no judgment. She cared for my newborn with so much love, giving me the peace of mind to truly rest and heal. Her knowledge of postpartum recovery, nourishing meals, belly binding, and newborn care made all the difference. Thanks to Erica, my second postpartum experience was smooth, healing, and rejuvenating. I couldn’t recommend her more highly."

  • "From her very first night with us, Erica brought expertise and warmth that put our entire household at ease. She cared for our newborn with confidence and skill while encouraging us to rest and patiently answering every question. She was punctual, professional, and a joy to have in our home. We always woke up to a feeding log, a clear handoff of the night, and peace of mind knowing our baby was in wonderful hands. Erica gave us the priceless gift of rest and confidence during those early weeks. We highly recommend her."
