Cancellation Details

Fees are final and deposits are non-refundable. Refunds are only given if I fail to provide services due to my own error. If I cannot attend your birth due to unforeseen circumstances, a backup doula will be provided.

Inspiring Testimonials

What My Clients Say

Lynn

“Having Ursula as part of our birth support team was the best decision for our family. As our pregnancy for our 2nd baby ended up being high risk, it became quite the mental hurdle leading up to the big day. Not to mention, having a traumatic experience with our 1st birth, I was very intentional on who I needed on our team this time around, as this was our last baby.”

Lynn

Tanja

“Expect to feel genuinely loved and cared for by Ursula! With her individually tailored Pilates exercises, I am regaining my pelvic floor health, core strength, and stability. After having my second child, I struggled with lower back pain and weakness. Working with Ursula has been life changing. She is patient, knowledgeable, and truly invested in my recovery. I feel stronger now than I did before pregnancy.”

Tanja

Annisha

“Her postpartum massages were particularly rejuvenating. Beyond her wealth of knowledge and experience, it is her genuine compassion for the families she supports that sets her apart. I will always be deeply grateful to her. As a first time mom, I was nervous and unsure about so many things. Ursula guided me with patience and warmth, helping me feel confident in my new role. My only wish is that I had found her sooner.”
