Reviews from moms that I have been honored to help in birth and/or education. Thank you for allowing me into your lives; I am humbled and grateful.
“This class will give you a thorough overview of birth prep, the different stages of labor, and the early postpartum period. Whatever kind of birth you are hoping for, this class is for you – Molly offers awareness and encouragement without judgement, which is so refreshing! She is a great cheerleader, and you will feel even more confident that you were made to do this!” – Allie S.
“As a first time mom, I couldn’t be happier with Molly’s services. With my busy schedule, it was incredibly helpful to combine her doula support and prenatal visits with the birthing classes she teaches. Her guidance is grounded in both extensive knowledge and the real life experience of having four children of her own, which I deeply appreciate. Molly brought a calming, presence-driven energy to every interaction – exactly what I needed throughout this journey. I’m so grateful to have found her.” – Tara D.
“She was so kind, knowledgeable, helpful, and is such a great advocate. Even though birth went much faster than expected, she was such a great presence to have that day! She is quick to respond, knowledgeable, and even comes to your house for a postpartum appointment with a meal, scrubs your shower, does your laundry, and snuggles your baby. If you need an AMAZING doula, I can’t recommend Molly Mills enough! Truly the best of the best!! – Shae C.
“My husband, Josh, said it best – having Molly as our doula was an absolute game changer. In her prenatal classes, she taught Josh and I how to swaddle, what to expect at every stage of delivery, how to prep a birth plan, the different choices we were going to have to make and the research behind those choices, and other info on how to prep for postpartum expectations. I was a scheduled induction and on actual delivery day (and many days leading up to it) she texted me scripture and words of encouragement and just showed me she was there ready to support Josh and I however possible. She did not disappoint. Through every contraction she was there fanning me, using her essential oils to rid me of feelings of nausea, helping me focus on my breathing and low groaning, and finally she helped coached me through the pushing. She was also able to keep our families updated via text while Josh and I were savoring the precious moments with each other throughout the entire process. She also snapped a few candid photos of Josh and I holding our son for the first time. It’s definitely a moment we want to hold on to and cherish forever and she got a picture of that moment. But wait, there’s more! Not only did she prep us and support us during delivery, she also offers postpartum visits! She came to my house with all the intentional healthy snack goodies to support a healing mama (pancakes made with oat flour, a probiotic drink, nut muffins, hard boiled eggs, and these delicious homemade sourdough oatmeal cream pies). She took care of our son and did some laundry for a few hours while Josh and I caught up on some much needed rest. I will definitely be using her for any future pregnancies! She was hands down amazing and I definitely recommend her to anyone nearing that third trimester!” – Jackie S.
