For my second baby, the number one thing is was anxious about was the lack of sleep that comes with the first few months. When seeking out a postpartum doula, I was looking for a trustworthy, professional organization that would be able to customize to my needs – literally helping me prioritize my sleep! Gold Coast Doulas totally fit the bill. I had a great initial consultation, there was clarity on cost/billing, and then my doula was exactly what I needed, which shows that Gold Coast Doulas is truly there to support women throughout pregnancy and during the challenging period after baby arrives. If you are someone who is thinking about outsourcing some of your support after baby comes, I can wholeheartedly say that this is worth every penny! Wish I had known about it for baby #1!
Thank you again! Your services have made a big difference to the stability and happiness of this new family!
Our postpartum doula helped us survive the first few days home with our new baby. She was exactly what we needed; she was professional and helped ease our anxiety of caring for a new baby and two toddlers!
Since we don’t really have doulas service in our home country, we found ourselves not knowing what to expect.
Thanks again for sending your doulas here, their knowledge and expertise changed our lives dramatically and made parenting so much easier! More than anything, their warm support and kind words brought both me and my wife to tears.
With a postpartum doula’s support, my house was in order and the baby was bathed before I even noticed she had started working! Hiring a postpartum doula during those first crazy weeks at home with a newborn is a great way to get some much needed rest or just take a little breather for yourself. Your babe will be in great hands!
Our overnight postpartum doula made extra sleep possible for both my husband and myself! She also was an empathetic listening ear and great at offering solutions in a non-judgmental way.
The entire team of Postpartum Doulas that supported my family following my son’s birth were phenomenal. They helped me and my husband get longer stretches of sleep at night, did the dishes and never-ending piles of laundry, they helped my two year old daughter get ready in the mornings, and got breakfast ready for her while I nursed my baby. They were constantly asking me if I needed anything, and sometimes stayed up all night with my son so I didn’t have to. Every single one of them is exceptionally professional and went above and beyond the call of duty! Their help allowed me to focus on myself and my newborn, heal faster, and bond with him during the day. It was a pleasure to get to know each of them, and appreciate their genuine care and compassion for the whole family. I can’t recommend Gold Coast Doulas highly enough!
Our postpartum doula became a part of the family immediately. She helped with the rhythm of our day and showed support, empathy, and compassion. She was always a step ahead with my kids and cooking, cleaning, soothing, and caring. Thank you Gold Coast!
We loved having a postpartum doula help our family out. Our triplets took to her right away! She had no problem adjusting to two or even three babies crying! She was always so helpful in any way she could be. I never had to ask her to do anything she just DID. Which is huge after having multiples and recovering from a C-section. You try to be super mom and do everything yourself, but she was for sure my “out”. I loved having the doula come to our home, and most importantly I was able to trust her right away with our little blessings. She was like family to us and I am forever grateful for her help and advice!
Our postpartum doula from Gold Coast gave me support while my husband was away during a hard time adjusting to two under two. She took care of my baby overnight so I could pump, sleep, and give myself some grace and a break. She helped with my 2 year old in the morning by getting him ready, cooking breakfast, and playing with him so I could take care of myself and bond with my baby!
I wanted to thank you and all the Doulas for their support. Everyone was great and so caring. I could give a special thanks to every single person as everyone has impacted our family with their kindness. I miss everyone already!
Sometimes more help can mean more mental load for moms and that is exactly the opposite of what happened with my doula from Gold Coast. I am so grateful. There was very little thinking/mental load to take on (I’m someone who is very particular about things which makes it hard for me to accept help). My doula asked me a few questions the first night, then just took care of everything! I was able to sleep easier knowing this, which was the goal all along!
We have been more than pleased with the services from Gold Coast Doulas. While family can be helpful in these situations, it was nice to have someone we could trust that would care for the baby without much direction. Our doula really jumped right in to work while still being friendly and conversational. It was just a huge relief for us and we are so thankful.
My postpartum doulas were professional and knowledgeable. They did a wonderful job caring for my baby overnight. It was so helpful to get a good night's rest. I would definitely use Gold Coast Doulas again!

If you’re thinking about working with Gold Coast, do yourself a favor and call right now! You will have zero regrets, except not calling sooner 🙂
I was so grateful to find Gold Coast Doulas! They were professional, gracious, and kind as they helped us adjust to being a family of five. They’re the perfect solution to not having family nearby to help after baby’s arrival!

Having a postpartum doula was so helpful following a really difficult birth and colicky baby. Their service was professional and educational. Everything was really seamless and I felt very supported during those first few months when it was needed most 🙂
Katie Rushlow
Gold Coast has supported us through both of my children's births and postpartum seasons. I couldn't recommend anyone better. They have been supportive and encouraging throughout pregnancy, birth and postpartum. In particular for this birth process Annette Reed was an excellent doula to us, she added so much more value to our birth experience.

I truly cannot say enough good things about our experience working with Julie at Gold Coast Doulas! My husband and I had been on the fence about hiring a doula because of the added financial investment, but it wound up being a decision that completely changed the course of our birthing experience. Julie was so present with us every step of the way, providing support in the weeks leading up to labor, staying up with us all night at the hospital and well into the morning, and providing us with help breastfeeding following the arrival of our daughter, too.

I honestly do not know where we would be without Kay, our Doula. She came 2 nights per week starting at two weeks post-partum. I thought we would just do a couple weeks but we continued with Kay through 4 months. She helped us be better parents to our baby girl. As new parents, we had so much to learn and Kay provided loving guidance, advice, and reassurance when we needed it most.
To have just a few hours a week where you did not have to constantly make decisions and think about your little’s wellbeing because someone you trusted was there taking care of her, made a huge difference in all of our wellbeing.
