We decided to work with a doula because we wanted to have a natural birth. A doula embodies the knowledge of our Ancestors when it comes to natural childbirth, which has been missed or replaced with modern ways. We wanted someone who understood our needs, knowledgeable about the birthing process, caring, and hands on.
Freya was everything we wanted and more in a doula. She was very encouraging throughout the entire pregnancy. Freya provided information on health and fitness during and post pregnancy.
She helped me tremendously during labor with natural pain management.
She assisted me with breastfeeding after our son was born. In addition, Freya did postnatal visits which were great and much needed. Being a new mom the advice, information, and encouragement she provided went a long way and help me with this new chapter in our life. I recommend Freya’s services to everyone who is expecting or planning to have a child.

I, probably like most men, had no idea what a doula did. After meeting with Freya, I learned quite a bit and felt comfortable in having her be a part of our birth experience.
When we had our daughter, upon arriving at the hospital, I was extremely anxious.As soon as Freya got there, I immediately felt calm and at ease. She was awesome throughout the entire process!
She supported my wife in a way that I couldn't have. I have no idea how we could have done it without her. She was the true MVP that day. I can't thank her enough.

I am so glad I had Freya help me throughout my pregnancy and labor! I began working with Freya a few months prior to my May 2018 due date and she was such a blessing to us.
She helped me with everything from prenatal health to drafting my birth plan to installing the car seat. Her natural childbirth class helped us identify positions and massage techniques to relieve pain during the birthing process.
The class and her calming presence throughout my labor helped me have the natural childbirth experience I wanted. I really appreciated that she very deliberately involved my partner and showed him how he could support me during labor.
After our son was born, Freya’s postnatal visits were everything! She came over and tidied up, helped me with some latching issues we were having and even showed me how to baby wear!
Freya is so knowledgeable and supportive and I highly recommend her.

Freya is the best advocate to have in your birthing room. She made sure I was completely aware and had a say in everything that happened. She was a major support throughout the pregnancy and delivery. I'm so glad to have had her be a part of my pregnancy and birthing experience.

I am so grateful to have found RootMama. Freya and her team are professional and full of knowledge and resources. They are dedicated to giving women the care we deserve at this special time.
She helped me curate the best birth plan that helped me with a clearer vision of how I wanted my ideal pregnancy/birth/postpartum to look like. She offered classes that allowed us to connect with other families and gain more resources.
I would not have had the same birth experience without RootMama. Freya was soooo helpful to me and my family in so many ways. I will always recommend RootMama!!

When I found out I was 6 weeks pregnant, I started looking for a doula because this was my first child and I wanted everything to be done naturally and didn't know where to start. I chose Root Mama after an extensive search because The company resonated with me. Freya was very knowledgeable about natural birth and breastfeeding. This was especially important to me because everyone around me would only speak about how hard it was going to be. I needed someone in my corner "rooting" for me.
My doula helped me prepare for a natural birth by helping me come up with a birth plan, assisting in finding a midwife, holding classes about the process and exercises to help with contractions, walking me through everything step by step, offering ideas about a topic when I had none, helping come up with alternatives to medication, customizing herbal tea blends, doing prenatal yoga and meditation with me, etc. the list goes on. The assistance she provided during my pregnancy was invaluable. She really made the process for me as seamless as possible.
At my labor, my doula was instrumental in helping me relax, breathe, and keep my eye on the main goal. She did the exercises with me to help with contractions when my spouse needed a break. She kept a cool towel for me. She provided essential oils, a jazz playlist and a soothing tone. She always reminded me that the pain was bringing me closer to my beautiful baby boy. She also kept stressors and negativity out of my birthing room. She also made sure I had snacks and juice to stay nourished and hydrated. My doula worked with my midwives to ensure that I did not have to stray away from my birth plan. My midwife and doula were the perfect team working to make sure I had everything I needed.
After I had my baby, my doula came to my home and washed dishes, cooked, folded clothes, made me an herbal bath, did meditation with me and we recited positive affirmations/visualizations of my child's bright future. She also assisted in healing my womb. She was there whenever I had questions and rushed to my side when I went into labor. It was especially nice to take a nice herbal bath and relax while someone cooked and did household chores. I really know that she loves her work and cares deeply for her mothers. I don't want to know what my birth experience would have been like without RootMama. It was the complete experience. She provided assistance not only physically but mentally and spiritually as well.

I was initially skeptical of hiring a doula because of my lack of knowledge. I’d never even heard of a doula. However, Freya and her team at RootMama proved integral to my wife’s smooth (and natural) delivery.
Our doula hosted educational sessions during all three trimesters, helped us with techniques for delivery, and prevented me from losing my mind during delivery. Not to mention how much they helped my wife and son during delivery, with recovery, and home visits.
I cannot recommend RootMama enough! They were better than advertised and worth every single penny. Freya is now an extended member of our family and if we expand our family in the future we will have her team at RootMama right by our side.

When I had my son, I was experiencing a very challenging birth. I felt nothing was going as I had planned it. That's why I am so grateful to Nkoyo for being there to assist me through my son’s birth.
She was the only person actually listening to my concerns and voicing my concerns to the doctor who was trying to pressure me into procedures and medication I didn’t want. She acted as an advocate for my son’s birth to be as natural as it could have been in a deadly situation. She understood that I wanted to treasure the memories of my son’s birth as well as nursing him for the first time. Under the medication and/or procedures the doctor was recommending I wouldn’t have had those opportunities. With the pressure building Nkoyo ushered people out of the room. She performed relaxing massages and breathing exercises so I could focus and bring my blood pressure down.
Her techniques allowed me to receive less invasive procedures or medications. I am thankful I was clear minded and could remember what was important to me, EJ’s birth and me nursing him for the first time! If you are able to receive her care you are in great hands!

After I found out I was pregnant, I felt excited. I started looking for a doula because I wanted to experience a water birth for my last child. My previous two children were hospital births with epidurals. I knew I needed extra support this time around to get through the natural birthing process.
I chose RootMama because one of my midwives recommended Sis. Freya Morani. My doula helped me prepare for a natural birth by providing me with all of the knowledge there is to know about having a natural birth. The assistance she provided during my pregnancy was outstanding! Even though I hired her when I was already 37 weeks, it felt as if she was there since the beginning of my pregnancy because of how attentive and caring she was.
At my labor, my doula was instrumental in helping me get through the pain. When I wanted to "tap out" she gave me encouraging words to keep going. My doula assisted me by massaging the right spots, helping me breath through the contractions, feeding me and making sure I stayed hydrated. My doula worked well with my midwives. Their teamwork was unmatched! My doula was the missing piece to my natural birth puzzle.
I will be forever grateful for her services! Money well spent! Would highly recommend using RootMama for all of your doula needs!

Nkoyo was da bomb a** doula! Honestly, she was more than a doula for me and my baby. She was my Super Wombman. Throughout my entire labor, she was comforting, attentive, supportive and an exceptionally excellent doula. During my labor contractions were intense.
Without Nkoyo's experience and passion for being a caregiver, I strongly believe I would of bailed and jumped ship, left the birthing center and went to the nearest hospital (a place where I absolutely didn't want to go). I'm truly thankful and proud of the decision to have by my side my forever Super Wombman doula, Nkoyo. Words really can't describe how fortunate I was to be blessed and graced with Nkoyo the doula. My son Ezekiel and I sincerely give thanks to Nkoyo and the RootMama team for being our rock!

RootMama and my doula Freya were great! Freya is very knowledgeable in her field as a doula and also displays a genuine love for her role as a doula. Not only is she an expert in her role, she is socially knowledgeable with the medical professionals in our area, which helped me with exploring options that met my criteria. ''
My expectations consisted of finding the most natural friendly birth hospital, doctor, and doula to help me have a successful, safe, unmedicated VBAC after 2 c-sections (VBA2C). I was determined not to have a c-section again, and Freya helped me emotionally to keep that mindset and physically to prepare for a smooth labor and delivery. She also provided my husband with some very informative educational material on childbirth and other related subjects so that he could help me emotionally and physically as well.
I am very thankful and grateful to have had Freya as my doula, without her warm calming presence and expertise my VBAC could have gone the exact opposite of my expectations. I am very grateful that this birthing experience this time around resulted in me feeling more rewarded, positive, and accomplished in knowing that the next time around I can do it again the way that God intended, naturally! Thank you Freya for your genuine love, support, and expertise!

When I found out I was pregnant, I felt really excited to be a mom but along with that I also had a lot questions and fears. I started looking for a doula because I wanted a natural birth. As first time parents we needed someone, but not just anyone that could be there with us and help us prepare to welcome our baby the best way possible. Prior to meeting Freya I thought that finding the right doula was going to be a difficult task, especially because we needed someone that spoke Spanish, but that wasn't the case. The day we meet Freya she was very nice and sweet. She told us all about her and her experience as a doula and we knew right away that we did not need to meet anyone else. Not only does she have the experience needed to assist a birth, but she also speaks Spanish.
During my pregnancy she helped me prepare for a natural birth by showing us different exercises, and breathing techniques, answering all of our questions, but the main thing that she did for me was help me with all the fears that I had about giving birth.
At my labor Freya was instrumental in helping me stay calm, and focused at all times, making sure that I had everything I needed and that I was as comfortable as possible. My doula worked great with my midwives. After I had my baby, my doula came to my home and spent some time with me and my baby which made me feel really good. She helped me take care of a couple things around the house, and made me an amazing meal! She was very sweet and she is an amazing person, definitely the best!

Freya was very professional and personable from the start. We knew she was the doula for us after our first meeting. She is informative and has a genuine passion for helping mommas have the birthing experience that they desire.
Her herbal bath is phenomenal! And that is an understatement! She has been great even after the birth of my son. I still talk to her regularly almost 2 years later! She is responsive and always helps however she can. She just has such a warm and caring spirit. She also helped us with eating healthier.

I started looking for a doula because I felt like I needed extra emotional support, and I wanted some tips to help my pregnancy and birth process run smoothly. I wanted a doula who was gentle, open-minded and honest; someone who I could talk to and learn vast knowledge from.
During my pregnancy, Freya and the RootMama team discussed my nutritional intake and talked about my food consumption throughout the week. She also recommended prenatal exercises to strengthen my pelvic floor and prepare for a home birth. She made sure I was I felt supported throughout my pregnancy.
My doula was also a wonderful point of reference. If I had any questions, I knew I could call my doula and she’d be there to answer anything, no matter how “small” the issues were. During labor, my doula was extremely helpful and a soothing presence. From guiding me through breathing techniques and providing massages, to talking to me during my contractions, my doula was a large part in my making my birthing experience all the better.
After 21 hours of labor with no meds, after going through laughs, cries, prayer, and pleading, I almost wanted to give up!! But my God my baby is here!! After everything she is here!! My baby's birth was the first day of the rest of my life . I'm so grateful and humble. I looked around, and she and I were surrounded with nothing less than pure love. I'm so grateful for the best midwives and doula in the world!! I'm so grateful for my FAMILY I grabbed my baby girl out of the water.
Hiring RootMama was a decision that I stand behind completely. I had a wonderful outcome, and I would highly recommend RootMama to all my friends or anyone looking for a doula in the DFW area!

Freya, what can I say? She's phenomenal! I love her calmness, soft, meditative voice, and her unmatched knowledge. When I call her with questions, she answers without hesitation. She is resourceful. If she didn't have the answer right then, wait a minute and she will! I loved the herbal baths and teas. She assisted me with three successful home births. I have three beautiful souls that are here, healthy and whole with the help of Freya.

My experience with Rootmama was very special. Freya was very hands on and resourceful. My spouse and I were able to create a birthing plan and mentally prepare ourselves for the birth of our second son with the help of our doula.
During labor and delivery, she was very patient with me and tended to all my needs. She assisted in helping me try new positions to keep me comfy during contractions as well as focused on breathing techniques. Freya was very informative and helped me talk with my nurses and other medical care professionals.
The after care services were amazing. Freya prepared a sitz bath that was very relaxing and tended to a few chores around the house! If you're really into going the natural route, RootMama also provides placenta encapsulation. I was very impressed with the presentation of my capsules and umbilical cord. I would definitely recommend RootMama for your doula services!

Freya was not only our doula, but she quickly became a member of our family! She was an advocate for my daughter's well-being before, during and after the birth of my first grandchild. With vast knowledge of birth, natural remedies and postpartum care, she is quite an asset. I strongly recommend her as a doula! Words can not express my gratitude for her being involved in this process.

One of the best decisions I made was hiring Freya as my doula. Not only did she help me remain calm throughout the overall pregnancy and labor process, she was never afraid to ask the hard questions, which we new moms sometimes shy away from.
Her techniques were amazing. Although there were 6 people present at my home during labor, when surges (contractions) came, I found myself calling Freya's name. She was there to guide and rock me through them. She encourages, uplifts, and supports throughout the entire process.
You cannot go wrong with her. She is the best! Not to mention the postpartum services came in handy more than I could have ever realized. Thank you Freya for being there for us!

Freya is absolutely the best doula in the world! We've had three natural home births, and RootMama has been there to coach us through each time! She is professional, yet personable, consistent, informative, loving, and one of the most comforting people I've ever met. We feel so safe and confident when you're guiding us! Asante Sana for all you do!

I wanted a natural birth at home for my grandson but I'm Bee-Bee (grandmother) not the parents. However, RootMama came to the rescue and provided caring, maternal care right in the hospital. RootMama was my eyes when I couldn't be there. I'm so grateful and definitely would recommend this company to my friends.

Every mom deserves to experience someone there to assist in any way to improve and help your birthing experience. It will give you a greater appreciation overall. It was enlightening and refreshing to have someone there to totally support me.
I really enjoyed the massages, and the motivational words were very encouraging, and being there, in general, like walking with me, running errands, etc. Having a doula is an experience all mothers should have.
My entire family liked my doula and was happy with the services and impressed with level of attention Freya was giving to me. I didn't expect for Freya to stay with me for the entire labor process - really the early labor. I appreciated that and thought that was very caring and genuine love and concern. I definitely want Freya there to experience my next labor and birth with me.
I really enjoyed the massages, and the motivational words were very encouraging, and being there, in general, like walking with me, running errands, etc. Having a doula is an experience all mothers should have.
My entire family liked my doula and was happy with the services and impressed with level of attention Freya was giving to me.

Having RootMama definitely made me feel more at ease about giving birth. Being a first-time mom, there were things I didn’t know and didn’t think to question. It was especially nice having someone else support my birthing and lifestyle choices. It was also great to have doula by my side, coaching me, and helping me through the delivery. I appreciated the following the most from RootMama Freya: 1) she helped me create my birth plan. I didn’t have one or think to have one. 2) she provided additional services like belly casting, meal prep, and massage. 3) she involved my family and made them feel more comfortable with my pregnancy and natural birth. 4. she provided informational support on pregnancy, birth, health choices, etc.
Hiring RootMama will definitely make pregnancy and delivery easier and smoother for any mom. You will learn so much from her. It also helps that she is an awesome person and a joy to be around. Since my family lives out of state, they felt good about me having a doula. They felt at ease knowing that someone would be there assisting and supporting me if they wouldn't have made it in town in time for the birth. My baby loves being a doula baby. There were things I learned that positively affected my lifestyle during pregnancy, which equals a healthy, happy baby! Everything was wonderful! I hope RootMama just keep doing what they're doing!
RootMama most definitely exceeded my expectations! I didn’t know what to expect being a first-time mom. RootMama's assistance during the birth was excellent! Freya definitely helped keep me calm. Freya was a huge help for me, and I think she would definitely help someone else. It was nice having just one person keep me calm and coach me in the midst of all the commotion going on.

Freya and her team have been a tremendous support to me. I reached out to RootMama for postpartum and lactation support. Freya was amazing and continues to be in our breastfeeding support group that I attend. I really enjoyed working with Sister Freya. Her support has truly helped my breastfeeding journey as well as helped me with postpartum self-care. I also enjoy the workshops available at RootMama to meet other moms going through their own journey. I recommend her services if you are pregnant, nursing, or considering pregnancy. She is a true advocate for her clients.

The after care services were amazing. Freya prepared a sitz bath that was very relaxing and tended to a few chores around the house! If you're really into going the natural route, RootMama also provides placenta encapsulation. I was very impressed with the presentation of my capsules and umbilical cord. I would definitely recommend RootMama for your doula services!

After I had my baby, RootMama provided me meal preparation, light housekeeping, breastfeeding support, emotional support, community resources, time for exercise, laundry, and referrals.
While absolutely exhilarating, having a new baby comes with a variety of challenges. Having Freya come by for postpartum support was delightful for my family. Being able to ask questions, share ideas, and even just talk with her was very reassuring. She had access to so much information. When I brought up problems and concerns, she had solutions, and good ones!
The best part of having a doula would have to be the encouragement aspect. One of my main goals is to be in the best health and lose the baby weight I had gained, not only for myself but so I can be around for many years for my new baby. Freya went on a walk with me and the baby, showed me a quick recipe on how to make healthy food in a fraction of time, and gave me resources to motherly groups that would keep me active and accountable after she departed.
I would have to say my perception of doula services absolutely changed after my visit with RootMama. I had no clue that they had so much knowledge when it comes to the postpartum woman's needs. Whether it was breastfeeding suggestions or nutritional guidance, Freya had a plethora of knowledge and guidance.
I will most definitely use a doula in the future. I regret not having one before delivery, but am happy I didn't miss out completely on the experience of getting to connect with RootMama and all they have to offer. The webinar they hosted literally saved my sanity and was refreshing to hear RootMama explain the hormonal and postpartum feelings I was under at the time was absolutely normal.
If Baby Bentley could talk, he would say thank you for encouraging my mother to stay on track with diet and exercise. This will keep us together and healthy for many years. P.S - you did a wonderful job putting my clothes away and getting me to sleep. :)
I think RootMama covered all bases on the postpartum visit. I would like to keep in contact to learn of events and webinars of interest.
I would tell any woman who was considering hiring RootMama to stop thinking about hiring, and just do it! A doula from RootMama will be your biggest advocate. She will tell you what your options are and provide emotional support after the baby arrives. You can not lose if you hire RootMama.
