"Matti was the absolute best decision I made for my pregnancy and postpartum journey. My husband even tells everyone how helpful she was for him too! She’s very knowledgeable and responsive for any and all baby questions which I appreciated since it’s hard to get ahold of your primary care provider usually and you wouldn’t normally for random questions like “what kind of cloth diapers should I buy”! During my labor she was in close contact with us helping and then at the hospital she was so helpful in bringing me comfort and peace of mind. She helped me communicate my wishes to the midwives and nurses and helped me understand the hospital protocol and how to be as least interventional as possible in that setting. I would 100% hire Matti again! Oh and her lactation bread is to die for!"

"Whether you have given birth before or this is your first time, Matti is such a wonderful doula to have on your labor and delivery team! Here is my story. My vision was having an unmedicated and vaginal birth at a birthing center. Our meetings were educational and reassuring for both my husband and I. She would be the voice for my husband and I in the delivery room. She helped us type up our birth plan with every possible outcome. We ended up having to get induced at the hospital and I went into labor for 30 hours which ended in a C-section. Matti put in so much work during those hours with giving me tools for pain distraction, giving me an infinite amount of pressure points, giving my husband breaks, and giving me the emotional support I didn’t know I would really need. She was such an asset to my team. I will 100% hire her again for my next birth. We are beyond thankful for her! "

"Matti is a kind, responsive, and dedicated doula. We were happy to work with her on specific topics pre-labor and have her be an added support during and after labor. She is eager to learn, grow, and understand with her patients/clients"
