“Emily was amazing. She was so calm and made me feel so much more relaxed. It was so great to have someone explain to me what was happening and really reduced my fear and anxiety. Such a great support. So glad she was able to be part of the birth of our baby girl. I would definitely recommend her!”

“I had the most amazing experience with Emily as my doula , I loved all of the help and support that I got! I wouldn't have wanted to bring my son into the world any other way. Emily did so much to make my time more comfortable and was super understanding every time I needed her help afterwards as well. If I end up becoming pregnant again in the future, I will be having Emily as a doula for sure! Such a blessing.

“Emily was my doula for my first pregnancy and birth. Words can not describe her service to me during this completely new time for my husband and I. We were scared and nervous every step of the way and she was a breath of fresh air being able to ask all our questions to. When it came time to deliver, Emily was there from beginning to end, she showed my husband how to assist through the entire process. I looked for her for guidance and support and she was always there knowing what I needed... She never left my side or turned any of our questions away. After birth she has been great with my baby questions and checking up on all of us! I can't recommend Emily enough to all you pregnant ladies out there! Amazing just amazing!

“Emily was an amazing support during pregnancy, labour, and postpartum. As a first time mom, I’ve had lots of questions and Emily was able to answer any questions I threw her way. She also helped to put me in contact with other supports in the community. So grateful for all her help during this experience”

“Emily was my doula for my second baby. She was such an asset to have by our side during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. She is knowledgeable and has a very comforting presence!

“Chatham is beyond lucky to have Emily. Birth is the wildest, craziest thing that I have ever done and without her, I doubt that I’d look back on my experience so fondly. Emily’s personality, knowledge and people skills shine through and I can’t wait for our paths to cross again”
— Bronwyn Robson
“Emily was my doula for my second birth, I was planning a home water birth and my husband felt very at ease having her support and wisdom there! She was exactly what we needed! All her tips and suggestions and counter pressure was a HUGE help during labour! Not to mention the photos she got of the birth, I will cherish forever!! She went above and beyond with her visits to help me out postpartum and I couldn’t be more thankful!”
— Helena Giesbrecht
““When my husband and I found out we are expecting we knew we wanted a Doula. It wasn't until during labour that we knew for sure we had made the right choice. The even better choice with choosing Emily Hime to go through this journey with us. She was knowledgeable, kind, compassionate, patient, understanding, supportive and there for us no matter what we needed. We are so glad that we found her and wouldn't have done it any other way. Thanks so much Emily. Shawn, Cora and I are so glad we found you and that you are part of our lives. You really helped what could've been a scary process not so scary. We thank you to the moon and back”
