“Jenna was amazing support to have during pregnancy and birth! I'm military so I didn't have a support system close by however I was lucky enough to be paired with Jenna as my birth doula. She took the time to carefully plan out my labor with me and help me make informed decisions on what I did and did not want for my labor. Within 30 minutes of calling her saying I was in labor she was there and immediately started helping get my baby into position for labor because he was facing the wrong way and I had limited mobility due to my epidural. she captured so many magical moments on camera. As well as made sure my husband knew the best way to support me and that he fully felt involved in the labor experience. I would definitely hire her again for future babies!"

“BEST DOULA EVER! Jenna is so knowledgable about everything in the birthing process and helped my husband and I feel so empowered. I had a 57 hour labor in which nothing went as planned and I absolutely would not be able to look at it in a positive light if it weren't for Jenna. She was calming and supportive the entire time and guided us through position changes and also encouraged us to advocate for ourselves when times got tough. It would be a blessing to get to work with her again and I'm so grateful to have had her there!"

“My doula was very helpful to myself in the whole process, even to include after delivery of my Baby Girl. She gave my mom and friends a piece of mind through the most challenging days and nights. I had fear and doubt on my personal birthing plan [and] she reassured me with guidance and lots of emotional support. I am very happy and at peace when I'm with her."

“Jenna was amazing and very knowledgeable in her role as a doula. All positive reactions all around with the nursing staff at NMCSD and especially for Ms. Ruiz. I highly recommend her for all of our deliveries here :)"

"I truly believe I would not have had the birth experience I did had it not been for Jenna. She meant so much to me during my pregnancy and birth. She was not only an educator but a friend and therapist to me while I had little support being away from family and while my husband was deployed. She went above and beyond for me and I am forever grateful. She made me feel empowered and assured me that what I wanted was right and could be done. Thank you so much Jenna!"

"Jenna is such an incredible person. She was a genuine teacher, friend, and confidant during the time she spent with my wife and I. She was calming and empowering through my wife's pregnancy and delivery. She dispelled a lot of misinformation about the entire process of birth that really put my wife and I at ease. As a husband (and now proud father!) I was included in every possible step. I am so happy we got to know Jenna and that she was our doula."

"Finding Jenna felt like a divine moment. All the stars had aligned. When I was feeling lost, afraid, uneducated, vulnerable, and very much pregnant, there she was. All I can say is I wish I had searched for her sooner because of how much peace she brought me and my partner. If I had to sum up my experience into one word it would be empowering. There was a lot of information that I was trying to consume, a lot of choices I was trying to make and didn't know where I should begin. So many times I wanted her to just tell me what to do but she never did. She gave me the best available information she had to make my own informed decision and once I did, then we talked it over. She guided me every step of the way and helped me build confidence that I knew exactly what was best for me and my family. I not only see Jenna as an amazing doula but she is truly an amazing person with the best energy. We feel so blessed to have had her by our side, especially when things did not go as planned and we had to make those tough decisions. She is the best comfort and best advocate you need under those circumstances. Jenna not only helped me but made it a priority to be inclusive with my partner. She was encouraging to him, informative and comforting when things got scary. Before labor we both went into it feeling confident and secure in ourselves and that is everything we could have asked for. We highly recommend Jenna as a doula. I'm so glad we didn't do it without her!

"We are so blessed to have found Jenna. My goal was an unmedicated VBAC and I was successful because of her! The whole experience was incredibly empowering. Jenna has a wealth of knowledge on physiological birth and helped me craft an amazing birth plan. She spent so much time helping me prepare for birth mentally and physically during my pregnancy. She included my husband in our prenatal visits and taught him ways to support me during labor. I was so much more prepared to advocate for the birth I wanted because of all the education received from Jenna. In the postpartum period, she continued to exceed my expectations by going above and beyond to ensure I have everything I needed to rest and recover. Jenna is intensely passionate about her work as a doula and we will forever be grateful!"

“I had an amazing experience with our doula, Jenna. I knew she would be a good match from the start because she was always very enthusiastic about explaining things to me, especially as a first time mom. Most of the time, I didn't even know what to ask, and she would be able to anticipate questions that I may have and just offer information that I didn't even know that I needed to know. She helped me with my birth plan by guiding me through preferences that would be offered to me and what I should pick. She never forced me to do anything. It was always initiated and driven by me, but any decision I made, she supported wholeheartedly. And then when it came time for the birth, she was there the entire time. She was there to advocate for me even when I unfortunately did have a more pushy doctor the first night, and she handled the situation gracefully by protecting me and also protecting herself while being respectful and firm to the doctor. My birth was very long, and she never took breaks. She stayed with me the entire time and even allowed my husband to nap when she noticed he was getting tired. In the end, I ended up having an epidural, but I still wouldn't have changed anything and still appreciated Jenna by my side. She changed so many positions for me. I'm just grateful that she was there. And postpartum, she was amazing as well, there to answer any questions, emotional support, physical help with nursing. I recommend Jenna as a doula to every mama, whether your plan is to be unmedicated or medicated!”

"I truly don’t know how I would have made it through my birth and postpartum experience without Jenna. From my second trimester through two months postpartum, she was a consistent, compassionate, and deeply knowledgeable presence in my life. Jenna was instrumental in helping me avoid a c-section. She stayed with me through over 30 hours at the hospital and supported me through 9 hours of pushing—when I was at my limit and ready to give up, she didn’t let me. Her unwavering belief in me and her skilled guidance helped me bring my baby into the world naturally, and for that, I’ll be forever grateful. Jenna took the time to really get to know me—my preferences, values, fears, and hopes—and tailored her care to exactly what I needed. Her attention to detail, kindness, and thoughtfulness made all the difference. After birth, when my body felt broken from the experience, she cared for me as if I were her own. She gave me daily massages, did belly binding, cooked nourishing meals, and created space for healing—both physically and emotionally. She brought such calm, strength, and warmth into our home. Her expertise in the Body Ready Method, Spinning Babies, breathing techniques, and optimal pushing positions was incredible. She never pushed her own agenda, but always offered her honest and well-informed opinions, which we deeply appreciated. Jenna was not only a lifeline for me, but also a huge support system for my husband and family. Her presence lifted us all, especially on the harder days. She gave more than I ever could have asked for—and we’re endlessly grateful. We love Doula Jenna. If you're lucky enough to have her on your birth team, you will be in the best of hands."
