Second time client of Tias! I first used Tia's services 2 years ago where I was successful with my first medicated VBAC birth. As soon as I received my positive pregnancy test with my third baby, I KNEW Tia was going to be hired again! Even my husband, who was first against hiring a doula, was quick to ask if I already contacted Tia when I announced to him our 3rd pregnancy :) Tia did it again! She was the support I knew I needed for this 3rd birth and with her encouragement and belief in me, I was able to have an unmedicated 2VBAC! According to my husband, this is our last baby haha so I wanted to take advantage of Tia's placenta print she offers. I am so happy I decided on that because Tia made us the most beautiful placenta print which incorporated all three of our children. If another baby were to magically happen for me in the future, Tia will OF COURSE be hired again, without a question! And anyone I know in need of support for their births in the future, I will without a doubt recommend Tia. Thank you TIA!!!

I am absolutely in love with the services Tia provided for me prenatally, during labor, and in the postpartum period! During pregnancy, Tia was an amazing resource for questions and second opinions (having someone to send those raw pictures to is such a relief, she’s seen it all) and had amazing knowledge to share during the prenatal and comfort measure classes, which helped both my husband and I prepare for our first birth experience! During labor, Tia was likewise INCREDIBLE. We had a 36 hour labor and Tia was with us every step of the way, the first 31 hours supporting us as I labored at home and then the last 5 hours during a hospital transfer. Tia knows ways to comfort, encourage, and empower you whether you’re giving birth in the comfort of your own home or in a hospital. She’s even a great person to consult if you’re trying to figure out how your birth should look - from the birth plan itself to which hospital. She has years of experience supporting moms in vaginal and cesarean births, so she knows what options are available even when you would never think to ask - for example, while I was pushing I was starting to lose motivation and kept asking if the head was coming out yet. Tia picked up on this and asked me if I would like a mirror to see the birth of my child, to which I quickly accepted and soon after had a mirror to see the miraculous crowning of my beautiful daughter before her full birth! She held my hand, prayed with me, and gave me so much support in every way despite the hours that dragged on. She is the strongest advocate that every momma should have to support themselves, and in postpartum was not only great with having my placenta products (salve, capsules, print, and heart keepsake) quickly available, but helped me unpack the emotions and process the birth experience itself, something too many mothers are never given the opportunity to do. Rather than being there for just the baby, Tia truly shows up in the space for the mother, and the difference this provides in how you feel afterwards is profound! I will absolutely without a doubt be using Tia for all my subsequent pregnancies and couldn’t recommend her more strongly. Be sure to ask about her birth & beyond package, too! We did this for a better rate to also include an IBCLC in our birth team and it helped us to get our daughter’s lip and posterior tongue tie quickly diagnosed and managed so that breastfeeding wasn’t painful. ♥️

We are so glad we chose to work with Tia for the birth of our first baby! The level of education she provided was incredibly helpful with mentally/physically preparing for birth. In the hospital, her care and support was invaluable to my husband and I since neither of us had been through this process before. We would absolutely recommend Tia to anyone looking for a doula!

I had the privilege of working with Tia from Birth Your Way Maternity Services and I cannot recommend her enough. From the very beginning, it was clear that Tia has a true passion for birth work. Her empathy and compassion immediately put me at ease, and her genuine care for my well-being made all the difference during such an important time in my life. Tia’s deep knowledge of pregnancy and childbirth was evident in every interaction we had. She answered all my questions thoughtfully and provided evidence-based information that empowered me to make informed decisions about my birth plan. Her calm and reassuring presence created a sense of safety and confidence for me, even during the most intense moments. What truly stood out was Tia’s adaptability and flexibility. She adjusted seamlessly to changes in my birth plan and always made me feel supported, no matter what. She empowered me to express my needs and preferences to my medical team, ensuring that my voice was heard throughout the process. In addition to her exceptional support during pregnancy and birth, Tia also provides placenta encapsulation services. I took advantage of this service, and it was such a smooth and thoughtful process. Knowing I had this option as part of my postpartum recovery plan made me feel even more cared for and supported. Thanks to Tia, I felt prepared, supported, and confident throughout my journey. She was an incredible advocate and partner in the birth experience I had envisioned. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated doula, Tia is absolutely the best choice. She will undoubtedly make your birth experience as positive and empowering as she made mine.

I recently connected with Tia regarding placenta encapsulation services. I had done my own research previously but was unable to find someone local with my first pregnancy. I had an awful experience my first time with post partum depression and anxiety and really wanted to try the capsules as a way to battle those symptoms this second time around. Tia with Birth your way came highly recommended and it’s obvious why. She’s responsive, knowledgeable and cares about her clients well being. She answered all my questions and made me feel confident in trying the service regardless of the outcome. Obviously there’s never a guarantee that something like this will work, but with her own personal experience and what I had read, I was willing to try anything. Tia came and picked up my placenta and delivered the final product the next morning. When she arrived she went over the process and instructions with me. I am currently on my 3rd week taking my capsules and feel incredible physically and mentally. I would have to say that there is a complete difference in my mood and energy than when I went without them. Having a toddler and a newborn is definitely challenging but feels less stressful than when I had just a newborn. I would recommend Tia and her service to anyone willing to try something new. You won’t regret it!

I would highly recommend doing the placenta encapsulation for all the future mamas. I didn't do it with my first pregnancy and now I have contrast with two very different post partum experiences. With my first, I slumped into a deep PPD that went on for months. I also struggled with energy and milk supply after my first baby was born. I have been using the capsules for over a week now since my little girl was born and have noticed a worlds difference. I haven't have huge dips in my mental moods, my milk supply has been coming in wonderfully, and my energy levels are way better compared to my first child experience. Would highly recommend doing this if you can, you are worth it mama!

From our very first meeting, Tia brought my husband and I a sense of calm and reassurance that made all the difference during our pregnancy journey. Her knowledge and expertise were evident, which made us feel much more comfortable and prepared for what to expect come delivery time. Throughout labor, Tia was an incredible support, providing both physical comfort and emotional encouragement. Her intuitive understanding of the birthing process and ability to advocate for my wishes made me feel empowered every step of the way. After the birth, we also used Tia’s encapsulation service, which she hand delivered. I highly recommend Tia for both her doula and encapsulation services!

Fantastic placenta encapsulation experience! Tia gave me some great insight on my placenta, educated me on every step of the process and followed up days and weeks later to see how my postpartum experience with the placenta capsules was going. I have the coolest art prints of my placenta, and the umbilical cord preserved as a heart forever and ever. Cant wait to use the placenta tincture and salve as well. So many benefits and uses down the road to balance my hormones with these placenta products and it made my postpartum experience so wonderful.

I gave birth a little over three weeks ago, and since then, I have not been able to get the support that Tia provided out of my mind. Prior to actually being present for the birth of our first born, Tia provided prenatal resources that were super helpful in better understanding what to expect during the delivery. Our prenatal visit helped get us in the right mindset for what was to come. I ended up going into labor about two weeks early, and Tia didn’t miss a beat. I texted her when my water broke in the middle of the night, and she responded, providing support right away. While I labored privately, she provided positions and tips via text for getting baby into an optimal position. When contractions got closer together, Tia made her way to the hospital. Upon arrival, She jumped right in and coached me through the hardest hours of my labor, providing expert support tailored specifically to me and my birth plan. She helped me advocate for myself in the hospital when staff members were rushing our birth experience and pushing interventions. She help me find my inner strength so I could have the natural unmedicated birth I wanted, despite being induced (which was outside of my birth plan). She helped empower both my husband and me so we could bring our little boy into the world safely and the way we hoped. I highly recommend Birth Your Way Maternity Services. Thank you, Tia!!!

I can’t even find the words to say thank you! My first labor and delivery was everything I didn’t want. I knew I wanted something different the second time around. My first thought was hire a doula, I was in contact with Tia and it didn’t take long for me to notice she was the one! We instantly clicked, she is just so easy to talk to. We had a prenatal visit where she taught my husband and I certain positions we would want to try to get baby in optimal position, counter pressure techniques, she kept reminding me she was here for me and to support me and I felt very reassured I could do this. My goal was a unmedicated homebirth! Once I went into labor tia was in constant communication with me, she is extremely educated in the pattern of labor, my contractions were very inconsistent and she could tell my baby was not engaged just yet, she had me do a certain positions and a few hours later everything was starting to progress. She arrived at my house at 2 AM (with a tornado warning and a flood warning). I wanted hands off help but not too hands off and she was just perfect. Guiding me in different positions and movements to do during contractions and allow the baby to start moving down my pelvis. Doing the best counter pressure and helping me with my breathing to stay in control of my surgery. She knew the right time to start filling up the pool. When everything was getting hard she reminded me to breathe and relax which is what I needed. She took the most amazing videos and pictures of the process. I am so grateful for her and idk what I would’ve done without her. She gave me such peace of heart and helped me achieve my goal and dream of my home birth! Thank you Tia!
