"Having Bridgette as our doula was so awesome! She was so helpful during my labor and birth. She always calls or texts to know how you are doing and if you have any questions or concerns. She was available any time of that day even in the early hours! She showed my husband and I ways to cope with labor. She is very supportive when it comes to what the mothers want and has great advice to offer too! I highly recommend having Bridgette as your doula! She truly knows how to make you feel at ease and relaxed when you are going through labor."  
-  Bianca Martin, mama to Zander



"Dear Bridgette,
Thank you for being there on one of (the) most trying experiences of my life. We are so happy that you were our doula. I am wondering if the outcome would have been different if you had not been there.  When the midwife left, you were the one who helped keep control - especially during the pushing phase. Your massage helped alleviate the excruciating pain, and your support got me through a difficult labor. I'll never forget you! We'll always be grateful for your help in this special time!"
- Love,
R & A, parents to A. O



"This woman is amazing! She encapsulated my placenta for me, and made a perfect little heart out of baby M's umbilical cord! She had all kinds of options for me. I decided to have her add fenugreek to up my milk supply so I can pump and donate. She also steamed my placenta with ginger and lemon. And delivered the capsules to me in this nice dark blue jar. It was labeled and had instructions on it. And she even added a bunch of little dark chocolates in my bag! I just can't say enough positive things about working with her on a professional level. We will definitely be having her encapsulate for any future children we have. I would totally recommend her if you are thinking about encapsulation. 
Now that I have taken 1, and this is only day one, I can attest to the fact that it gave me more energy than I could have ever imagined. Up until a couple weeks ago I was drinking a healthy caffeine drink in the mornings but had to quit because it was affecting baby. One capsule gave me 5 times the amount of energy and it lasted all day (I took it about 11:30am). I am so so so very happy with the effect the capsules are having on me and can't wait to see what happens over the months.  I love Bridgette Becker!!!!!!!!!!"

"If anyone, pregnant now or in the future, has or has had issues with PPD (postpartum depression), milk supply, or general birth recovery, PLEASE look into placenta encapsulation!! I had the lovely Bridgette Becker do mine, and I swear to god it saved my life. I've completely bypassed the bad PPD I had last time, have tons of milk, and have felt hormonally stable for the whole pp (postpartum) phase so far. My OB had never heard of it, but at my 6 week pp checkup, she was so amazed at the drastic difference in me this time compared to my first, she said she is a total believer. She told me to get on the Internet and shout it from the rooftops to help other women, so here you go.  She even said she'd be telling her patients about it too."

"My husband and I had been seeing Bridgette for massage when we found out we were pregnant.  We decided we wanted a natural birth and knew right away that we wanted to hire Bridgette as our doula.  She followed up with us throughout the entire pregnancy and provided us with great support.  She was always there when I had a question and has a great network of additional resources.  She was there every step of the way during the birth and kept me calm throughout.  Her presence and encouragement were essential for our natural birth.  I couldn't imagine doing it without her being there.  She went above and beyond my expectations and I would highly recommend her to anyone for massage, doula services and placenta encapsulation.  We are looking forward to seeing her soon with our daughter for the new infant massage classes."

"I hired Bridgette to encapsulate my placenta after my baby was born. My experience with her services was excellent. She picked up the placenta from my home, and delivered 180 capsules to me a few days later. I was very satisfied with her turnaround time and dedication to delivering a quality product. I will definitely hire her again in the future."
-Errin, Placenta Client

"Bridgette prepared my placenta after my daughter was born 2 weeks ago with the utmost love and care, including a late night delivery so I could begin taking the capsules right away. My husband and I were thrilled with the communication and updates on how the preparation was proceeding, the photo of our keepsake cord, and the beautiful care that was put into packaging the capsules, including the chocolate, which this postpartum mom enjoyed! Will happily use her services for each child we hope to have in the future ♥"

​"After bouncing from therapist to therapist for a multitude of reasons I was thrilled to find Bridgette a few years ago.  Not only because she is talented (which she is very), but her accommodating schedule was a big bonus.   When my wife and I found out we were having our first child I approached Bridgette for help.  Her Doula services proved to be invaluable throughout the entire process.  She has been, and will continue to be, a staple in my families health and wellness."

"Words cannot express how happy I am with deciding to choose a doula. I have to honestly say that I was somewhat skeptical throughout my entire pregnancy. After speaking with a number of people I decided that it was worth a shot to interview Bridgette, being that I wanted to have a natural VBAC. I can honestly say that she exceeded our expectations and more! Having her present during my labor and my birth was meant to be! Bridgette is absolutely amazing as a doula. She is very serene and calming and kept me focused during my 38 hours of labor. I honestly believe that I would have ended up asking for an epidural had she not been present. She is an amazing person and also truly has such a passion for helping women achieve their goals when it comes to their birth plan. I feel very blessed and thankful for having her there! I would highly recommend her to anybody who is pregnant!" 
- Erin & Rob,  Parents of Carter



"Bridgette is amazing. She was able to calm me down and help me to trust that my body could do what it was meant to. I'll always hold a special place in my heart for her. Her love, unconditional support, massage, and just her presence in the room made my whole birthing experience exactly what we wanted. If I ever have another babe, it would be a huge honor for her to be our doula again ♡"
- Elissa, Mother to Lennon



"Bridgette is the best doula you could ever ask for. She's an amazing strong inspirational women. I don't know what I would have done without her. She has changed my way of life. She's wonderful!"
- Morgan, Mother to Norah June


"Bridgette is an amazing, caring woman
She is am exceptional doula - she brought some calm and strength to our birth when we needed it most. The excellent care didn't end once baby was born. We were having trouble with high bilirubin in the first week, and she processed my placenta asap and delivered it to me in the hospital when my baby had to be admitted foe photo therapy. AND THEN came to my house about a week or two later for a post partum visit. She brought an awesome little gift and did a little massage for baby, since we were still having tummy troubles. She just simply went above and beyond my expectations and I recommend her to every expecting mom I know. If we have another child, I will definitely be hiring her again."
-Jessica, Mother to Charlie Andrew
