Testimonials

Read what Molly’s clients are saying about her work as a doula.

“I don't know what I would've done without Molly. Before birth, she listened to all of my concerns, wants, and needs and I could tell she really cared about me. She made me feel prepared and capable to give birth and I went into labor with a positive attitude because I knew Molly would take care of everything. When it came down to it, she was all that and more. I had a very long labor and she was by my side for 48+ hours doing counter pressure, massaging, providing appropriate snacks, positioning me, and creating an all-over positive environment. I felt comfortable and taken care of the whole time.
My husband was also a part of my birth team and he was so nervous. Molly helped him feel helpful and a part of the experience while taking over the parts where he didn't know how to help. In his words, ‘Molly saved my life.’
I truly owe her my sanity and the ability to look back at my birth with good feelings.”

“My husband and I cannot sing Molly's praises enough. Molly was exactly what we needed during our birth prep, labor process, and support postpartum. She not only supported me through my choices but also was 100% there for my husband. Throughout the process, she provided us with resources, and support that we needed and met us where we were at. I so appreciated her ability to empower me through the whole process. She was informative, calm, and made me feel like a super strong woman who could absolutely meet my goals. Because of Molly, I was able to have an all-natural childbirth for my 9 lb. baby boy. Molly was the perfect combination of kindness and pushing myself to meet my goals. I felt so comfortable with her and her support throughout my labor made all of the difference. I could not have met my natural birth goals without her. I cannot recommend her enough!”

“I had my baby in mid-March 2020, in the midst of a sea of change in the hospital policies (and upending of daily routines everywhere). Molly was a reliable, calm, competent presence through it all. She kept me focused on the task at hand and was in sync with me emotionally, bringing empathy and intensity and lightness as needed. I am grateful for her loving care during and after the birth and consider her a very important person in my son's history. If I had another baby I would most certainly request her presence.”

“Molly was referred to me by Kelly Cox to be my Doula for the birth of my daughter. My first born was a scheduled cesarean, so aspects of raising a child were familiar to me, but labor and delivery was a scary black box. Molly spent time with my husband and I listening to our concerns and expectations. On the day of my daughter's birth we could not have been more thrilled with how everything went. Molly helped me through labor, and even though I was cursing her internally during the worst parts, she helped me achieve the goals I had set for myself. She knew exactly what I needed to do to progress the delivery and made the whole experience better.”

I went into premature labor at 35 weeks. At the hospital, I felt unprepared and anxious—until Molly arrived. She dropped everything and met me at the hospital, despite my delivery being outside of her on-call window. My husband and I agree that the mood completely shifted once Molly was in the room. We both felt her presence and involvement was so helpful, supportive, and calming in an otherwise traumatic experience. My daughter ended up needing to stay in the NICU. During that time Molly checked on us frequently and offered advice. She also visited us once we came home from the hospital, providing emotional support and validating our complicated feelings. If and when we have more children, Molly will most definitely be part of our birth team. She provides absolutely vital input and support during pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum.
