Testimonials: Hear from our clients!

Choosing Tomecas to be our Doula was one of the best decisions we made for our journey to parenthood. We received Tomecas's card in the welcome package from our Midwifery practice. When we met with Tomecas for the first time, my husband and I knew right away that Tomecas was the perfect Doula for us. I knew that I wanted to have a a natural labor and delivery, but I was unsure of myself and most of the women I talked to were unsure about natural labor and delivery too. Tomecas made natural labor seem like the norm. She was so confident in me, that I also became confident in myself. She encouraged me to stay healthy and active during pregnancy, which was refreshing after hearing so many others tell me to sit down, stairs, etc. She made sure that my husband stayed informed and included every step of the way. I was new to Atlanta when we started working with Tomecas, so she invited me to events with other like minded moms. Even with all of the support we received from Tomecas before labor, I am most grateful to have had her with me during labor and delivery. I was completely comfortable knowing that Tomecas wanted what I wanted for my delivery. Now, if I'm ever talking to an expecting mom, I make sure to tell them how important it is to have a good Doula.

My husband and I planned to start trying to start a family in 2018. We got pregnant quickly but my pregnancy was considered ultra high risk due to chronic but controlled high blood pressure, 2 DVTs in my legs, and advanced maternal age (I was 39 at the delivery). With all the CDC stats on maternal-fetal mortality I made it my mission to surround myself with a medical team that truly cared about me. I knew my team included a doula. I needed to ensure my voice was heard when I was too tired and weak to talk. That's exactly what I got with Tomecas. When my husband and I met her...we just clicked. Prior to the birth we spoke on the phone after each OB appointment, and met a few times to discuss labor/delivery and to create a birth plan that I reviewed with my OB. The birth plan changed when my blood pressure became elevated and unstable. Tomecas came to the hospital after the induction started and never left until our daughter was born via emergency c-section. Having her meditate between me and the doctor on duty was essential because my OB was not on call and that doctor knew little about me as a person. Tomecas was also there to sit with my husband when my c-section turned critical and I lost 2 liters of blood. After a transfusion, Tomecas was one of the first people I saw while in recovery. She continued to check on me during my entire hospital stay. After being discharged, Tomecas came to my home twice to see how I was doing and to visit with the baby. Her attentiveness and care was a blessing to our family. I highly recommend all women get a doula, especially first time mothers, and I highly recommend Tomecas.

From my first conversation with Tomecas , I knew that she was the doula I had been in search for . I was adamant about having a doula who would advocate for my hospital birth and educate me on the holistic approach to childbirth . Our first visit was an experience I would never forget as she would not only provide her support as a doula but also as a counselor amongst everyone in my household . She regularly checked on me and focused on my wellness and mental health . Upon entering the hospital and going into labor ,Tomecas provided amazing support. Even when I was told that I would have to have a c section her support and care reassured me that I would have nothing to fear and would deliver my son safely . Overall I absolutely love Tomecas and in the future definitely plan to have her as my doula for any future births . You develop such a personal relationship with her that will last a lifetime .

Tomecas has a special place in my heart. She isn't just someone that is there to do a "job" she is someone that is fulfilling her purpose in assisting many wombmen to welcome their precious seeds into this physical realm, as safe as possible. Tomecas has a very personable, luminiscence presence about her, & I was always comfortable around her, and talking to her. She was a great support to me and my family and I am forever grateful to her for the tremendous reinforcement I received from her during my pregnancy and when birthing my sun.
I had an unexplainable surge of calmness as I were bringing my sun into this world. She allowed me to tug and pull on her, her patience, and words of encouragement were just what I needed to get me through, before I caught our baby boy into my hands.
It is an honor to have been able to share space with you and allow you to work your magic at such a sacred time with me and my family.
We love you and are so very grateful for you again! Sending you much vibes of prosperity, love and light to you and yours beautiful!
Thank you so much again for the love and light you shed on our family Tomecas!!

Wow... Where do I begin? My experience with Tomecas was one to remember! She was truly heaven sent! Her vibrant energy, harmonious spirit, and her calling for bringlong babies to earth side safely is truly a gift from God!
I was refered to Tomecas by my Midwife Christine Taylor (former midwife at See Baby Midwifery) now Founder & CEO of Birth by Grace Midwifery after speaking with her about the type of atmosphere I wanted during my natural waterbirth experience as a first time mom. Once I was done telling Christine all about it she told me to give Tomecas a call. So I did. What a great referral! I will never forget my initial interview with Tomecas. She was pleasant, her smile lit up my living room, she was very professional and her passion for what she does was heartfelt. Tomecas was also very knowledgable, experienced, and understood my desire to have a natural non medicated waterbirth. Her belief in holistic interventions and advocacy for moms during labor/delivery was the selling point. My husband loved her and so she was hired!
Hiring Tomecas was an awesome choice. She provided me and my husband with outstanding prenatal, delivery, and postnatal support. (Educational classes, home visiits, home sessions with husband, etc.) Tomecas encouraged me, inspired me, and helped me achieve the birth that I wanted. She helped create the perfect atmosphere for me and my husband and enabled me to be the voice of what I wanted during my birthing experience. She truly help my son come to earthside peacefully and safely and I could never thank her enough. Having a doula was the best decision ever and I wouldn't have change it for the world. Thanks Tomecas for everything you have done for me and my family. We are truly thankful to have you in our lives as our Doula and friend. You are simply amazing and we love you! May God continues to bless you and Omorose Blessing!

I searched and searched for the right Doula... I was having no luck. Until I found Tomecas due to a referral from SeeBaby. We first met at Starbucks, and immediately I knew Tomecas was the right woman to guide me through the natural birth of my twins.
She is compassionate, strong, and her soul is beautiful. She always had me as the the number one priority. She never doubted me, she looked in my eyes and told me,i was going to bring my daughter and son into this world as I willed it.
My pregnancy lasted for 38.5 weeks with twins, and I had several nights of active labor, but then the contractions would stop. No matter what the hour of day or night, Tomecas was available to help me though it all. She came to two of my OB appts when I needed reassurance and guidance.
The evening I went into true labor, I was in transition on the way to the hospital. She was on the phone with me, and as soon as we pulled up after a one hour drive, she was waiting outside for me. She helped me check in and get to triage. At that point it was 915pm, and she held me up as I had contractions after contractions. I was checked in triage and was 8cm dilated, 100% effaced. We had to move quickly to get to the room, but Tomecas remained firm, calm, and was loving.
Once we got to the room, she got the music on I requested, and worked smoothly with my Midwife and MD to get me on the bed ion hands and knees. Once on the bed I was able to start pushing, I looked into her eyes and pushed my daughter out, then 7 minutes later my son.
We named our son Phoenix, because Tomecas thought it would be a good name for our girl. We thought it more fitting for our son.
I'll never forget Tomecas, she was the energy, fire, and wind I needed to meet my son and daughter.
I obviously highly recommend her, she is amazing!
Thank you Tomecas for being there for our family.
