“Ariel was the most valuable investment we made in our birth experience! My husband and I both agree that hiring Ariel was absolutely the right choice for us, and helped us come out of our birth at peace and happy with how everything turned out!”
- Megan, RIL Doula Client 2023
“We loved Ariel's support during our birth and this was especially impactful because we ended up needing a scheduled c-section. She put so many special touches on the birth that made it very positive and this was so important since we had really wanted a natural, unmedicated vaginal delivery. We loved the physical touch she provided, her advocacy, the snack basket, the customized affirmation cards, and so much more.”
- Johanna, RIL Doula Client 2023
“Ariel’s relaxed demeanor was a huge emotional support, she lightened the atmosphere/vibe in the hospital while also being a knowledgeable resource.”
- Irina, RIL Doula Client 2023
“If you are searching for a doula in the Stafford/surrounding areas, I cannot recommend Ariel enough.”
— Betsy, RIL Doula Client, 2022
“This was my first experience with a birth doula as I did not have a doula for my first two births. I was so impressed with Ariel’s helpfulness that I plan to have a doula for all future births. She is confident, flexible, reassuring and great at anticipating your needs.”
— Kim, RIL Doula Client, 2022
“Ariel is extremely compassionate, knowledgeable, nurturing and patient. She exudes a calming presence and is thoughtful in her communication and supportive approach. She is extremely thorough and caring!”
