“A journey where your destination travels alongside you. A detached piece of yourself that makes you feel whole. A colour before the bloom. A type of magic handmade just for us. Maybe that’s why no words could ever do it just.”
— Jessica Ulrichs

what people are saying

  • "Emily’s presence throughout my pregnancy, the labor and delivery, and postpartum were truly a gift from Jesus. She is full of the Holy Spirit, and it is evident by the peace and wisdom that she carries. If you feel a lack of peace and a need for that feeling of assurance, safety, and security from a doula, then definitely hire Emily!"

  • Emily was the calming presence that tempered the sting of anxiety and allowed for my birth experience to be a powerful moment of immediate bonding with my baby. Emily is nurturing, kind, and full of the purest intentions of taking care of us mommas. I am over the moon she was a part of bringing my son into this world!

    Caroline Church

  • If you are looking for a doula who will support you during your birth experience and give you peace of mind, then Emily Thompson is the one for you.

    Lindsey

  • “It was so intimidating to transition care at 30 weeks from VA to KY and Emily made that transition so much more seamless. We appreciated the time and thorough preparation for all circumstances, not just our birth plan. The prenatal referrals truly made a difference in easing through the third trimester sciatic pain with the introduction of acupuncture and chiropractic connections. I remember feeling a sense of relief when Emily arrived just knowing there was another positive support person in the room. She jumped right in during transition to help with compressions and breathing work. Emily was a fantastic and bright light in our pregnancy journey. She provided several resources and contacts that helped us make decisions about our birth plan and welcome our baby into the world. We cannot recommend her enough!”

    Hailey Faye

  • “Emily has been my guide as I entered into motherhood and began preparing my heart for what was ahead. She helped me understand what I needed for birth and postpartum but even more so how to emotionally prepare. She has empowered me to view birth as a beautiful thing and motherhood without fear.”

    Erica Hammond

  • “Emily with EmThompsonBirthCo. has strong gifts of encouragement, empathy, honesty, and reliability - all of which help to make her an incredibly supportive doula who will always prioritize and advocate for your birth needs/wishes. I would recommend her as a doula to any mom, whether it’s your first birth or not. She will be an incredible resource not only during your labor and birth, but in pregnancy, postpartum, and as you are navigating breastfeeding.”

    Katherine Embry

  • “If there is anyone you’d want to have on your side through pregnancy and beyond, it’s Emily. She supported me through pregnancy, answered all my questions, and was there for me postpartum after a surprising and traumatic birth. She also helped me with breastfeeding and pumping and referred me to all the right people when needed. Emily is kind, loving and an all-around incredible person to serve as your doula!”

    Kenzie Hawkins

  • “Labor was something that always scared me-Emily helped me switch my feet into excitement and motivation. She showed up and used her gift of intuition, knowing what I needed when I didn't even know myself. She was there in the hospital room with support and continued that support postpartum.”

    Hannah Quick

  • “A turning point for my second pregnancy was meeting Emily. My first pregnancy (in my country of origin) ended with an emergency c-section, leaving me with doubts that my body was able to give birth naturally. I was holding on to my desire to give birth naturally. I knew I needed extra support this time around. From our first meeting, I really connected with Emily. Through her positive encouragement, I came to believe and embrace that my body could give birth naturally and that this birth experience could be different."

    Atele

  • “Emily was incredible during our whole pregnancy and birth. She truly makes you feel like you are making the decisions and she is providing support and knowledge. My husband and I were so grateful to have her on our birth team for the birth of our first child. She was such a blessing!”

    Kelci Webb

  • Emily was a much needed source of support & comfort in our birthing space. After feeling very under prepared for my first son’s birth, I knew I wanted someone to be there devoted to our desires for the second child. She went above and beyond to make sure both my and my husband were comfortable during and afterwards. We loved working with Em.

    Lily Dale

  • I’m so thankful to have hired Emily for my second pregnancy/delivery! She provided me with resources and support to ensure that I had the best experience possible and that we came as close as we could to my ideal birth. She gave me confidence in my decisions and supported me the entire labor and delivery process.

    Darby

  • Emily was/is so knowledgable, relatable, and down to earth which made talking to her and asking her questions so easy! She is very responsive and has so many good resources to help you get the birth you want. She was always so encouraging and would not change a thing about our experience with her, it was amazing!

I remember weeping with him in my arms, just thinking about how redemptive this birth felt for me - how the Lord so intricately protected my son and me. And how it was such a dream delivery with amazing staff support. The best part having my husband right by my side. I thank God every day that this was my son’s journey into the world and that He chose me to be his mama.
