Reviews & Evaluations

Dana, Manny & Baby Justin, NY

We truly cannot thank you enough for all the guidance and support you’ve given us throughout our end of pregnancy, labor, and postpartum journey. You’ve been such an incredible source of knowledge, comfort, and reassurance — always there to answer every question (big or small!) with such patience, warmth, and expertise. Your calm, gentle presence made all the difference during such a transformative time for us. From preparing us for labor (i wouldn’t have made it through those contractions without you!!!!) to helping us navigate the first few weeks as new parents, you have provided endless insight and encouragement that made us feel capable, informed, and cared for every step of the way. It’s been an absolute pleasure working with you. We feel so blessed to have had you by our side and are endlessly grateful for the impact you’ve made on our family. We have no doubt that you’ll be Dr. Clarke before we know it 🥳 — your compassion, dedication, and brilliance make it clear that you were born for this path. Wishing you all the success in your studies and career — and we truly hope to stay in touch! 🩵

Thank you so much for helping us prepare! We really appreciate it!

Rae, Dwayne & Baby Lavender, OH

As a first time mom, Nique was very supportive and informative. My biggest concern was nutrition and she made sure to give tons of resources and reminded me that something was better than nothing when I was feeling down. Her war approach and personality put me and my fiancé at ease during our time with her. She stays up to date on developing standards and practices as well. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a doula.

Thank you so much Nique! We have no idea how we would have done this without you!

Rose, NY

Shanika was amazing! I have PCOS with very irregular periods. I have been told I don't consistently ovulate each cycle and may have difficulty getting pregnant. Shanika took a holistic approach to reviewing all the various aspects of my life including diet, exercise, and stress where lifestyle changes and herbal treatments may be able to promote fertility and helped me make adjustments that fit into my life. Three months after incorporating her recommendations, I found out I was pregnant.

Natassja & Baby Skye, CA

"Shanika was extremely supportive and knowledgeable during the entire process. She made sure I was well-informed of what was to come during pregnancy, birth, and after. She helped me weigh out different options and reminded me when the right times came. I’m glad that Shanika was a part of my birthing journey!"

Sarah, Konrad & Baby Leo, NY

"Shanika made us feel completely at ease and cared for. She never missed a beat throughout our journey in giving us advice or a gentle suggestion. During the actual birth, both at our apartment and throughout the time at the hospital, she was kind, caring and strong for both me and my husband. We felt very lucky to have her along this special journey with us and I would greatly recommend her services!"

Ashleigh, Justin & Baby Hudson, NY

“Shanika made the entire process of having a Doula seamless and was a huge positive presence during my labor and delivery. We are so happy with our experience and wish her nothing but the best with future birthing clients.”

Shante, Mark & Baby Morrison, NY

“Shanika, thanks for everything. I feel good about my choice to have had you as my doula. You are smart and I trusted you at every turn. I feel confident that we could have indeed had a smooth and successful birth. I felt prepared for labor and delivery. And I trusted that you would have advocated for me at the hospital. Which you did. We were a good team! ”
