Love Notes from Our Home Birth Families

“Your peaceful presence & knowledge was so special to us & every time I think of my birth, I think of you & how grateful we are that you were there with us. You truly made it a phenomenal experience & are the reason we decided to birth at home. You made sure everything was organized for us & the follow up was incredible. We are huge fans of Raya in our home!”

— Hannah F.

“I loved being able to labor on my own. I loved that when it was time to fill the pool, the midwives made it happen, despite not having a stove. I really loved that when I opened my eyes in between contractions, as I got closer to meeting my baby, Raya was right there. Ready for anything. In those moments, I felt so safe. I felt so supported. It was everything.”

— Ashley S.

“My favorite part was our connection. It was and is like a sisterhood. I felt so open and able to really heal through my experience. Raya was calm and loving. We laughed a lot. She brought me home cooked food and gave me wonderful massages postpartum and of course during labor. She helped me feel heard and truly was a guiding light in my time of need. Raya is a special person with a big heart. She is a part of our family now.”

— Shariah S.

“Raya was pure magic and made me feel fully supported throughout my entire birth. When I was at my most vulnerable, she remained calm allowed me to speak out my exhaustion and kept encouraging me to breathe through the waves.”
