"Highly recommend LaDena for Doula services. She was very accommodating and helpful after I had my daughter.
Morgana James, IL
My experience with Doula D and Me has been nothing less the exceptional. I was so worried about being a first time mom and didn't know how I would manage once home. The support and assistance I have received from my doula is beyond more than expected. You are looking for a Doula? This is the right place as I highly recommend her.
