What Our Clients Are Saying

“One Moon Doula was hands-down the best pregnancy ‘purchase’ I made. It was truly an investment that has made us better parents – and we have a happier infant because of it. Quite honestly, the only time I slept peacefully in those first few weeks was when our postpartum doula was at our home. She offered a peace of mind that was invaluable during those first few weeks. And she helped me enjoy the experience, rather than just live through it. I truly believe that the doula’s help made me a much more confident parent and I would highly recommend her services.”

Erika, San Diego

To say that investing in a doula was a good idea would be the understatement of a lifetime. My wife and I heard about this magical concept as if it were a fairytale idea out of our reach, a luxury item in no way meant for us. That was until we met Kathryn and One Moon Doula. They showed us how we could achieve the dream goals we had for those first precious weeks while also honoring our modest budget.

Not knowing what to expect, as this was our first child, we did understand that having someone with us would change everything. We were quickly linked with a few doula interviews and fell in love with one of them. Our schedules aligned and boy did it ever change our lives. I can’t imagine not having our doula there for those critical nights of transitioning into parenthood, while making space for healing and recovery. We both slept more than we ever thought possible, while our son was cared for better than we could have imagined, AND we learned so much to build a foundation of comfort and confidence moving forward. No family member or friend would have been able to step in the same way.

If you have nothing else on your registry other than a fund for this…do just that. It will change your whole early parenting experience for the better. Thank you to One Moon Doula and their network of Angels.

“I really appreciated how non-judgmental Kathryn was – whether it was breast/bottle feeding or sleep training ideas, she… never made me feel like my ideas were wrong and was always open to finding the solution that would work best for me and my daughter.”

Carly, Encinitas CA

“Just weeks before my scheduled C-section in December 2016, my original postpartum care plan (family) had changed and I was left scrambling to find help the last minute. Kathryn was wonderful in organizing interviews, asked what type of help I need, solicit feedback and adjust her service accordingly. She has a group of wonderful doulas that were all qualified and easy to work with. Kathryn and her doulas helped ease my nerve as a first time mom! She is very accommodating and understanding- which is always appreciated when things kept changing during the first few weeks. Thank you!”

Joy, San Diego

“Thank you to Kathryn for creating this agency. Having the doulas help after baby’s arrival made all the difference. This was my third baby and 6 years in between. I wanted and needed to make sure I could still function as a mom to my 2 older ones. I had day doulas for a week or so, and I then realized that the nights were tough. So we switched to overnight support. I was able to nurse my baby, hand her back to doula and sleep. I felt extremely safe with the doulas in my home at night. I highly recommend One Moon Doula Services. Lovely ladies. So experienced, helpful, kind and loving.”
