"If you're contemplating hiring a doula, do it. If you are contemplating which doula, hire Carly. I am a first time mom who had no idea about anything labor or baby. Carly went above and beyond in educating me before, during, and after my delivery. I genuinely don't know how I would've managed labor pains or doctor questions without her knowledge in the room. She truly is the caring, passionate and helpful doula that everyone needs in that labor and delivery room with them. My labor story took a turn in a way that I didn't expect or want but having my doula there made everything okay. I would hire her every time no doubt. Thank you for your amazing service."

"Carly is awesome! I hired her as a postpartum overnight doula for my son, and was so kind and gentle with him. She also brought treats and did light chores while I slept! I highly recommend her if you're on the fence about getting a night, day or birth doula."

Simone C
"Carly is the absolute best! I hired her as a postpartum doula after having my daughter and its been the best decision ever. She helps with whatever I need in the moment, doing laundry, dishes, hanging with my daughter so I can shower or nap, whatever gets me to a good place during her shift! She also brings me meals so I have less cooking to do for the week and everything she has made has been delicious! I'm so thankful to have Carly around for my 'fourth trimester'!"

"If you are looking for a doula my husband and I highly recommend hiring Carly!! Carly has an amazing and encouraging energy. She helped me stick with my birth plans and helped me to feel supported with all of my decisions. She made me feel confident about being able to have the natural birth I really wanted. From the moment I met her, I could tell she was knowledgeable, confident and kind. She supported me through every aspect of my pregnancy and birth. She provided me with education, additional resources and endless support. When birthing time came, she eased my fears with her presence and helped me labor at home for some time before transitioning to the hospital. At the hospital, she created a very calm and serene environment despite the sterile nature of the hospital. She worked so seamlessly with the medical staff, you would have thought they were old friends! She was an absolute dream to have by our side. She was my cheerleader and my advocate. She supported my husband and I both through labor and delivery and celebrated with us during the birth of our son. She took memorable pictures of us and even shared tears of happiness when my husband and I were about to welcome our son into the world. I admire Carly for her patience, optimism, and knowledge. She was just what we needed! She checked in on us several times post birth and came out to our house for a lovely postpartum visit where she provided a lot of advice and support to a first time mom. Carly even made us a home cooked meal that was so delicious! I couldn’t imagine giving birth without her by our side and I wouldn’t change a thing about my birth."

-Hannah A
"Carly went above and beyond! She really exceeded our expectations during our birth. It was very helpful that she knew everyone and that made us feel more comfortable. She understood our birthing plan and helped us understand what we needed to do. Definitely will use her again for our next birth!

-Angela J
"I couldn’t imagine going through birth and postpartum without Carly’s help. She has been absolutely amazing from helping with my birth plan and making sure I had all the tools to have my baby to helping me after in postpartum to get rest and good food. There no way I could have done any of this without her! Her knowledge and kindness is overwhelming helpful in so many aspects! She has been a rock and still continues to check on me even after our time was up! 10/10 recommend for any birth or postpartum needs!"

-Justice D
"We hired Carly for birth and postpartum doula services and she was fantastic! Very supportive and insightful with our birth, and very helpful with post partum. She took sweet care of our baby girl, and was always going above and beyond. Also will add that her organization, services, communication, and invoicing was A+. Made it all very seamless and easy for a new family!"

-Allison M
"Carly helped me get through a pretty tough postpartum period, and I couldn't be more grateful! She was always kind and understanding, and I was able to take a much needed break (or work through any challenges) when we had our appointments. I could not recommend her enough as a postpartum doula!"

- Alyse O.
"My wife and I hired Carley as an overnight doula. Entrusting someone with your newborn isn't easy, but we quickly learned Carley is incredible. She's knowledgeable, engaging, and attentive to our daughter's needs. She made life so much easier, gave us confidence as new parents, and we walked away with a new friend. She's 110% trustworthy and deserves 10 stars! Plus--we actually slept, which was a godsend."

-Ian M.
"We feel so lucky to have found Carly. From the moment she walked into our home, she made myself, my husband, and our baby feel completely comfortable and at ease. She was always punctual, incredibly professional, and it was clear right away how much experience she has in caring for both newborns and new parents. Carly provided thoughtful guidance and advice during such a tender and vulnerable time in our family’s life, and I can’t imagine those early weeks without her support. Beyond her wealth of knowledge, Carly is simply a wonderful person to connect with. She brought warmth, kindness, and reassurance into our home every night she was with us. On top of all that, she’s an incredible cook—we truly felt spoiled. For a month, she stayed with us three nights a week, and she quickly became not just our doula, but a true friend. We know Carly will be in our lives for years to come, and we are endlessly grateful for the care she gave to our whole family."

-Anna C.
"Carly is the most amazing doula and just generally a wonderful person. I can't recommend her enough. Within 5 minutes of talking to her I knew she'd be a great fit, and her passion for the work was obvious. Whether you want an unmedicated labor or if you're planning a c section she is exactly who you want in your corner. She will do anything she can to help you have the birth experience you want. Babies don't always cooperate, but she will easily help you navigate any roadblocks you encounter. She is a phenomenal coach, exceptionally caring and nurturing, and so talented at knowing when to change things up to help you cope with labor. She has a big bag of tools to help manage your pain and so much knowledge on how to make your movements count. There's no such thing as a perfect labor, but with Carly's help there isn't a single thing I would change about my recent birth. I felt in control, so thoroughly supported and cared for. I'm not planning any more kids, but if I was I would have her on my team again in a heartbeat. Birth is messy, unpredictable and can be intimidating, but she will be a stabilizing force for you and anyone else there to support you. I know my husband also felt so much better with her there to guide us, it helped him be the best supportive partner he could be."

-Chloe S.
"Having Carly there to support me through labor and delivery of my second baby was such a great experience and I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting the same thing! After having a long and not ideal labor and delivery with my first baby I knew I wanted to find a doula that would be there to support me, my preferences for my birth and also be an advocate for me and my husband in the hospital where doctors can feel pushy at times with interventions. Carly is such a knowledgable and skilled doula and helped me labor in the comfort of my own home giving constant support using her doula bag of tricks to help me get through contractions and emotionally coaching me to keep me in the right mindset until she knew I was ready to head to the hospital. I only labored another 4 hours in the hospital before giving birth, but during that time Carly had a great rapport with the nurses and doctors and helped be an advocate to give my husband and I time and support when we needed to discuss choices we wanted to make during labor and delivery. My birth experience the second time around with Carly by my side was a total 180 to my first experience and I am so happy with the amazing support I received from her during the whole process. After delivery Carly stayed a couple hours to make sure I was doing well and she also took some very special photos during the labor and delivery that I will cherish forever. A couple weeks after birth Carly does an in person check in and brings a delicious homemade meal of choice that was one of the best meals I’ve had. If you are looking for a Doula to go above and beyond for your labor and delivery, Carly is the one you’re looking for!"

-Amanda G.
"TLDR: Hire Carly! She was an incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and dedicated doula who guided us through every step of our son's birth, advocating for our preferences, expertly managing labor challenges, and providing unwavering encouragement throughout the experience. We are extremely grateful for our decision to have Carly serve as our doula for the birth of our son. As first-time parents, we were understandably nervous about labor and delivery, but Carly’s expertise and presence made a significant difference throughout the process. Carly assisted us in developing our birth plan, offering objective and non-judgmental feedback about our choices. Her guidance helped us feel confident in our decisions, ensuring that our preferences were respected and understood by everyone involved. During labor at the hospital, Carly advocated for us and our wishes with the hospital staff. She played a crucial role in managing labor pain, especially during a challenging 15-hour labor without an epidural until the final stage. Her support was steadfast and comforting throughout the process for me and my husband. Carly was by our side from the onset of active labor at 1:00 AM, arriving at our home and remaining with us until our son was born at 7:30 PM the following day. Her knowledge reassured us about what was normal, when to go to the hospital, and guided us through important decisions, such as breaking the water and conducting cervical checks. Beyond her practical assistance, Carly was our biggest cheerleader, offering encouragement and positivity during every moment. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a supportive and knowledgeable doula!!!"

- Sarah D.
"Carly was such a help for the birth of our baby! This was our firstborn so we didn’t know what to expect from a doula or giving birth. Her knowledge and professionalism were very reassuring before, during, and after. She provided a lot of helpful resources for us, and brought food for us on her postpartum visit! I would recommend Sweet Pea Doula to anyone looking for one."

-Laura M.
"Carly was incredible! After having a traumatic induction for my first birth, I was looking for support for a redemptive second birth experience. A friend highly recommended Carly and I felt so heard and seen on our initial call. Though I lived too far from Carly for her to be able to support me in person, she created a special package for virtual support where we met on video call pre and post birth. It was the perfect set up! I felt so much better educated and so supported before birth and during labor. When I called her multiple times during labor, she answered immediately to help me think through some critical pain management decisions. This birth was completely redemptive just as I hoped, and I owe it to Carly and the work she helped me do! Can’t recommend her enough!"

-Chelsea B.
"I cannot say enough great things about Carly. I am a mom of 3 and did not get around to hiring a doula until my 3rd pregnancy and let me tell you Carly made the biggest difference in my birth experience as well as my postpartum experience. Birth experience: As our birth doula, Carly went above and beyond. One thing that stood out to me was that she never imposed rigid rules about when I “should” need support during labor. Rather than focusing on whether contractions were a certain number of minutes apart, she focused on me. She wanted me to feel supported whenever I felt I needed support. Her wealth of knowledge helped me to feel comfortable with all of the decisions that came up along the way and helped me to feel empowered and grounded in my ideal birth choices. She was my voice of calm and reassurance when I needed it and helped to ensure my wishes were remembered/met when things got hectic and started moving fast. Carly made me feel empowered, supported, seen and cared for through my entire birthing experience. Postpartum experience: As a postpartum doula, Carly became an invaluable part of our family’s transition. She has supported my physical recovery, emotional well-being, and overall wellness. During a time when so many people are focused solely on baby. Carly took the time to make sure I was taken care of, from having water to making sure I eat or rest or shower she really just wanted me to be well (bonus she is an amazing cook!) In addition Carly became a sounding board for me and really supported my emotional journey through adapting to life as a now mom of 3 with 2 under 2. My children absolutely adore her. They light up when she arrives and have formed such a special bond with her. It has been beautiful to watch her become such a positive presence in our family’s life. Choosing Carly was one of the best decisions we made, and we will always be thankful for the love, care, and support she provided during one of the most important chapters of our lives. Carly is the kind of person who gives her all to the families she serves. Anyone would be lucky to have her for their doula. We are endlessly grateful for everything she has done for our family and cannot recommend her highly enough."

-Samantha T.
"If you are looking for an experienced, sweet, and hardworking doula, hire Carly. My husband and I were first time parents and were feeling pretty overwhelmed. We recently moved to the Reno/ Sparks area and had no support system locally so decided we needed to hire a postpartum doula. We interviewed a few different doulas, but connect with Carly right away. She’s extremely knowledgeable, great at communication, and is overall just so easy to talk to. She truly just felt like a friend coming over to help out. She taught us things like baby wearing, properly prepping bottles, bath time, breast feeding and pumping, how to get our baby burped and into nap time.. Honestly she helped with too many to even list. One of the best perks was her cooking. She is an incredible chef (her Italian dishes are her specialty!) she offers meal prepping for a low fee which kept us fed when we barely had time to think about food. She even handled light cleaning around the house. Hiring her allowed my husband and I to finally have a chance to catch up on sleep, get things done around the house, and gave us a perfect person to coach us through all the hands on stuff. She really is just a super chill person to be around and I cannot recommend her enough!"

-Jackie H.
"I truly can’t say enough good things about Carly. As first-time parents, we had so many questions and uncertainties, and Carly was such an incredible source of knowledge, guidance, and reassurance throughout my pregnancy, labor, and delivery. She was incredibly caring, attentive, calming, and supportive every step of the way, while providing us with so much education that helped us feel informed and confident throughout the entire process. Carly is not only extremely knowledgeable and experienced, but also kind, personable, and genuinely invested in the families she supports. Her expertise and experience helped us feel confident in our decisions and allowed us to stay true to the birth plan we had hoped for. I’m so incredibly thankful Carly was there for one of the most vulnerable and meaningful experiences of my life. Having her support as first-time parents made such a difference, and I truly can’t imagine having gone through the experience without her. I would wholeheartedly recommend Carly to anyone looking for a doula. She is truly wonderful at what she does!"

Kristin S.
"Hire Carly!!!! She’s fantastic! My husband and I were both on the fence about having a doula, but we are so glad we did. We interviewed a bunch and knew in the first 5 minutes of talking to Carly that she was the one for us. She immediately puts you at ease and is obviously incredibly knowledgeable. After my experience I would say hiring a doula should be everyone’s top priority. (If you’re financially pinched, get the doula instead of the crib, seriously). She meets with you multiple times before birth and also meets with you after birth which is invaluable. (Not to mention the homemade pasta and sourdough waffles!) As a first time mom I had no idea what to expect, and having Carly by my side made me feel so much better. I’m planning on having multiple and will absolutely be hiring Carly the next time I’m pregnant."

-Belyn P
"Just hire Carly - your future self with thank you❤️ Carly was an absolute lifesaver during our postpartum journey, and I can’t recommend her highly enough! From the moment she stepped into our home, she instantly felt like part of the family — you find yourself laughing and crying with her within minutes. She supported us with lactation, feeding, and all the emotional ups and downs of new parenthood. But more than anything, she gave us the education and confidence we needed to actually trust ourselves as parents - knowledge we still rely on today. A massive help were the delicious, nourishing meals she made us each week - we still cook her recipes (Korean meatballs and roast sweet potatoes are a fam fav)! One of our favorite memories: our son was struggling to take a bottle from us, and Carly had him drinking a full bottle in about five minutes flat — we were so amazed we timed it and recorded it on video. Total “bottle whisperer” status. Once her time with us ended, we genuinely missed having her around, not just for the support, but because we loved hanging out with her! I can’t imagine any new parent not having the chance to work with Carly. If you want a doula who’s knowledgeable, warm, and feels like family, she’s the one!"

-Katy B
"TLDR: Hire Carly ASAP. She is an exceptional doula, and I (and my husband!) couldn't have had the birth experience we had without her. If I were to ever move, I would fly her to wherever I would be giving birth to be by my side. I have so much to say and don't know where to begin! I truly believe Carly has a calling to do this work and support women through these transformative experiences, so much so that I think she should train other women to be doula's. I had an unmedicated induction made possible by Carly's physical and emotional coaching, encouragement, and support. There is no way I would've been able to have had the birth experience I had without her. It would've been easy for Carly to sub out and not come to my birth. I had a short notice induction 3 weeks early, and called her no less than 36 hours before I needed to go into the hospital. I informed her as as she was walking out of another birth!! Not only did she show up at my house 5 hours after leaving her other birth, she attended my full 24 hour birth having just done a birth two days prior. The energy, kindness and focus she brought to my birth despite what I can only imagine be immense exhaustion is truly remarkable. My husband was by my side my entire birth hip squeezing and providing other physical and emotional support he wouldn't have otherwise been able to provide without Carly's coaching. And without me knowing, they were in constant flow of communication about what I could use/need. Carly is also utterly professional - I gave birth in a hospital and you never know how doctors and nurses will feel. Carly, however, made friends with the nursing staff!!! She also helped ensure I advocated for what I wanted with the doctors, which you really need... I didn't think I would, but it's true -- advocating for yourself (even in amazing hospitals) is really hard in L&D rooms (and I had an uncomplicated labor)... Also, while this may be obvious, Carly is on YOUR team. Though I wanted an unmedicated labor, as soon as I was in transition and requested an epidural (ultimately I couldn't get one because there was no time) she was ready to help me get me one asap! On top of all of this, I had terrible post partum insomnia and Carly extended her stay with me during her last visit to support me and gave me a ton of resources. You'll be in great hands with Carly :)"
