“Working with Stephanie Wyborski & Sydney Rebellino was a dream. They provided evidence-based information and resources to guide my partner and I's journey to learning about birth, curating our birth plan, and preparing for labor and the first few weeks post-partum. My partner and I are neurodivergent (partner is autistic, I have ADHD) and we knew the birth experience would be overwhelming without guidance. Thanks to Stephanie and Sydney, even when late stage pregnancy & laboring threw us immense curveballs (we had to scrap our entire birth plan for an unexpected c-section), we were able to be calm & mindfully engaged in the birth process as opposed to panicking & stressing.

Stephanie and Sydney answered questions and provided guidance, reassurance, and confidence-building encouragement in a timely manner. They authentically presented information and anecdotal experiences in an approachable & collaborative fashion. Never once did we feel talked "at" nor felt like we were "simply along for the ride". We were heard & treated as equals. Stephanie and Sydney were upfront & honest when debunking myths or alleviating anxieties. Their direct communication style was hugely appreciated by my partner especially.

Birthing a child is no joke. Stephanie & Sydney helped me see how rewarding it can be, even when well laid plans are interrupted. Thank you for everything, my partner and I were able to feel joy bringing our firstborn into the world because of you.”

“Stephanie and Sydney were such a blessing to our pregnancy and postpartum journey. They provided support in any area you can think of and even those you don't think of. And not only to me, but my husband as well! They were able to guide him through just as much during the whole process and our birth experience was everything I wanted thanks to their support and evidence-based knowledge and information. I am so thankful to have had them by our side through our first pregnancy and I will never not have them for any pregnancies in the future!”

-Jaclyn

“They are so informed and knowledgeable that they could help me make informed decisions and help my husband be an amazing birth partner. They took the time to get to know our family and our desires and I felt so cared for in this pregnancy with their check ins and advice. Also the postpartum support has been wonderful! They have not stopped supporting me and are always willing to answer my questions. So thankful for this service!”

“Stephanie is amazing. We are so thankful for her!

My husband and I were preparing to have our first baby during our first pandemic. We really had no idea what to expect, what to do or what would happen! Stephanie was our coach, both mine and my husband's, from day one. She is SO helpful and because of her knowledge and help, I was less afraid, felt more confident and less anxious about everything I didn't know about (or know how to do during) labor and delivery.

She met with us several times to set expectations and teach us things we might need to know. She answered our questions, over and over again with thorough, helpful and applicable answers. She truly held our hand (and my hips) every step of the way. From labor to delivery, breastfeeding to postpartum. She was at my bedside during my entire labor reminding me of what I needed to hear and know to have an experience in line with my birth plan and hopes of it all.

Stephanie has the steady hands of a seasoned veteran. And quick enough reflexes to catch our daughter from sliding off the delivery table (yes, that happened). I recommend her to every pregnant lady I meet and talk about her every time we share our daughter's birth story.

Stephanie is flexible, kind, helpful, confident, brilliant and funny. I promise you will get more than a doula, you'll get a partner. I cannot say enough great things about her and all the help she gave us. Stephanie is truly remarkable and we are so thankful!”

Working with Sydney Rebellino was an absolutely fabulous experience. My husband Jonathan and I connected with her instantly. Her warm, professional, and passionate personality made us feel so comfortable and supported all along the way. Sydney was always available to give advice and provide research-based information as we had questions. Sydney's voice, words, and touch during our prenatal meetings were more comforting that I can express. Our labor ended with a healthy baby and a healthy mom, for which we are so grateful. Our delivery was unexpected and very quick, and would have been much more traumatic if Sydney had not prepared us so well. Because of this preparation and in spite of not getting the "dream labor" we had in mind, we were able to own all of the decisions we made with confidence and knowledge. Even after we were discharged from the hospital and home with Fischer, Sydney continued to be a source of endless comfort and support for both my husband and me. She was available to help with breastfeeding and ensured that we were adjusting to parenthood. We highly, highly recommend her and absolutely plan to use her again in the future.

“Stephanie was an incredible support to my wife and I during the entire pregnancy and delivery. She was able to take all of the confusing (and sometimes scary) medical jargon and explain it in plain English. As a husband, one of my highest priorities is to make sure that my wife feels safe and protected. I can honestly say that having Stephanie as our Doula was the best thing I could have done to make sure she felt safe and protected during the entire process. When it was time for my wife to push, Stephanie really stepped up. I remember she gave my wife one end of her Rebozo (a labor scarf), while holding on to the other end, and had her pull each time she pushed. This really helped my wife get into a better pushing position and make more progress with each push. I remember the hospital staff in the room being very impressed and thanking Stephanie for her heads up thinking after our son was born. ”

“I don't think there was a single part of my labor/delivery that went how I had planned or envisioned it. However, having Sydney by my side every step of the way (she literally slept on the floor during my 42 hour labor!) made it just as perfect. It was the hardest 3 days I've ever experienced but I know without her encouraging support, I wouldn't have made it! I can't thank her enough for helping me bring my beautiful baby boy into this world!

I'd recommend her to any one who is having a baby, even if a natural birth isn't your plan. She was the best doula!

Thank you so much Sydney, River and I appreciate you more than you know!”

“Stephanie did a great job for my wife and I. She was full of suggestions at the right time and recommendations during labor that were in line with what we planned out prior to being in the hospital! My wife really wanted to go natural and it was very refreshing for me to have a doula who could give suggestions, tips and even motivational pep talks. She helped with new laboring positions, massages, talking us over different options and more. At one point when contractions and pain were at an all time high and doctors and nurses reminded us that we could get an epidural, Stephanie was quick to respond saying we can do this and push thru with new distractions and positions to manage pain. That to me was huge because I was emotional as my wife was in pain as well. I was honestly hesitant when my wife and I talked about a doula because I felt it would end with either me or her in the way or I would miss some experiences with someone else in the room. That however that was not the case at all. If my wife and I are lucky enough to have more kids we will be calling Stephanie again. ”
