Freya was a great doula! She explained up front how everything would go with her services and helped me pick one to match my needs. She was always available to answer any questions we had and gave me advice when it came to type of foods I should eat and avoid, best types of prenatals, water consumption, ect. She helped me find a great midwife that took my insurance. She was at the hospital for my daughters birth Sept 2020. She was so helpful during the labor process and Im so glad she was there. She also came to my home for a prenatal visit and gave me a lot of vauble information on breastfeeding, newborn care, and postnatal care of myself. I would definitely recommend her services to any mom to be. Thank you Freya!
Had my baby girl in August of 2018. Was under Freya’s care from January 2018 til postpartum care. My husband and I loved her, and can’t express how much of a gem she was to us during this new experience. She was very much like a big sister guiding us thru our journey. Thanks Freya, we have GOT to come see you soon to catch up!!! 💚
I am so grateful to have found Root Mama Wellness. Freya and her team are professional and full of knowledge and resources. They are dedicated to give women the care we deserve at this special time. She helped me curate the best birth plan that helped me with a clearer vision of how I wanted my ideal pregnancy/birth/postpartum to look like. She offered classes that allowed us to connect with other families and gain more resources. I would not have had the same birth experience without Root Mama. Freya was soooo helpful to me and my family in so many ways, I will always recommend Root Mama Wellness!!
Freyas birth workshop was comprehensive. My partner and I learned so much. She was very peaceful to be around and generous in answering everyones questions yet still kept a good pace and had us finish on time. A little early even. We were 1 of 3 couples attending. I feel more confident in my labor and delivery after her class and would recommend all pregnant couples take it. The tools and resources we walked away with will make a great difference in our birth! Thank you for everything you shared and taught us Freya! Were so excited to bring this baby girl into the world and feel empowered to do so now.
I met Sister Freya last year during my last month of pregnancy with my baby boy. She was literally my angel during this time as I had just moved to the Dallas area and had no idea where I would deliver. She gave me useful resources and much sound advice. She listened to me. I left her studio with a sense of peace knowing that all would be well. Fast forward a year and I’m so excited that she’s my doula this time as I’m preparing to give my birth to my baby girl! She has been awesome! She’s the sister friend that I would recommend any woman to have along their journey. She’s gifted and takes pride in what she does. I appreciate her expertise and her compassionate heart. I recently attended her Rock your natural childbirth workshop and I learned a lot! I’m looking forward to my birthing experience with her, trying some of her products, and getting my placenta capsules. She does it all! Forever grateful for her!!💖
I attended the birth prep workshop and it was amazing. I definitely recommend taking this class with Sister Freya. She gives so much information from the natural and holistic perspective that typically goes unmentioned by commercial birth workers. And who doesn’t love learning? Especially when it comes to our babies!
Still reaping the benefits from my time with Freya. Sipping my immunity tea to help with this crazy Texas weather. Revitalizing with my placenta tablets and reflecting over my experience with the help of the awesome video you made. Thank you sis. 😘
RootMama provided amazing prenatal education classes. She goes into depth and makes you feel you can do anything while pregnant. I learned how to take care of my body during and after pregnancy! I appreciated these classes and the time my doula spent with me before I had my baby because she made me feel confident. I wasnt expecting to learn so much but she went above and beyond to help me get ready to be a first time mom. Overall, I recommend any new mom hire RootMama because Freya is knowledgeable and truly passionate about what she does. Im so thankful that I was referred to her. I cannot say enough good things about Freya!
I am so glad I had Freya help me throughout my pregnancy and labor! I began working with Freya a few months prior to my May 2018 due date and she was such a blessing to us. She helped me with everything from pre-natal health to drafting my birth plan to installing the car seat. Her natural childbirth class helped us identify positions and massage techniques to relieve pain during the birthing process. The class and her calming presence throughout my labor helped me have the natural childbirth experience I wanted. I really appreciated that she very deliberately involved my partner and showed him how he could support me during labor.After our son was born, Freya’s post-natal visits were everything! She came over and tidied up, helped me with some latching issues we were having and even showed me how to baby wear! Freya is so knowledgeable and supportive and I highly recommend her.
RootMama is dedicated to providing education and resources to families to help them make educated decisions about their birth experience. Definitely any asset for any family looking for support during their pregnancy and beyond.
Very informational. The class really showed ways to empower the mother to take control of her birthing experience even in a hospital setting. I also learned techniques that my partner and I can do to help lessen the pain of contractions. Theres so much knowledge gained during this class that I cant began to share it all in this post! ☺️
RootMama Maternal Care is by far one of the most desirable experiences that Ive had with postpartum products. If you know any expectant Mothers, new Mothers or are a Mother - do yourself a favor and link up with this powerful, positive womban and the wonderful information and products that she has to offer!
Even though it was not on the website, RootMama offered to make belly butter to add to the package of pregnancy tea I was sending to a pregnant friend. My friend was delighted to receive the beautiful healthy products she received!
We decided to work with a doula because we wanted to have a natural birth. A doula embodies the knowledge of our ancestors when it comes to natural child birth, which has been missed or replaced with modern ways. We wanted someone who understood our needs, knowledgeable about the birthing process, caring, and hands on. Freya was everything we wanted and more in a doula. She was very encouraging throughout the entire pregnancy. Freya provided information on health and fitness during and post pregnancy. She helped me tremendously during labor on pain management and breastfeeding when our son was born. In addition, Freya did postnatal visits which were great and much needed. Being a new mom the advice, information, and encouragement she provided went a long way and help me with this new chapter in our life. I recommend Freya’s services to everyone who is expecting or planning to have a child.
My twins are strong, handsome toddlers because of the care I received at Root Mama. Im incredibly grateful!
They never text back or call back service is HORRIBLE!!!!!!
I had a sister inlaw who had a bad experience at Baylor they left at least 4 feet of guaze after her birth Freya sent a care package which made her return home very comforting and soothing...the herbs help heal her heart and womb... I would reccomend Freya the love she exudes throughout this process is needed...
I am thankful for Root Mama’s products, personalized care, and the wonderful advice I’ve received. I can’t recommend this business enough.
I’ll admit, I was initially skeptical just because of my lack of knowledge. I’d never even heard of a doula... HOWEVER Freya and her team at Root Mama proved intrical to my wife’s smooth (and natural) delivery. Our doula hosted educational sessions during all three trimesters, helped us with techniques for delivery, and prevented me from losing my mind during delivery. Not to mention how much they helped my wife and son during delivery, with recovery, and home visits... I can not recommend Root Mama enough! They were better than advertised and worth every single penny. Freya is now an extended member of our family and if we expand our family in the future we will have her team at Root Mama right by our bedside.
My name is Candace Odom. When I found out I was pregnant, I felt excited. I started looking for a doula because I wanted to experience a water birth for my last child, my previous 2 were hospital births with epidurals so I knew I needed extra support to get through the natural birthing process. I chose RootMama because one of my midwives recommended Sis. Freya Morani. My doula helped me prepare for a natural birth by providing me with all of the knowledge there is to know about having a natural birth. The assistance she provided during my pregnancy was outstanding! Even though I hired her when I was already 37 weeks, it felt as if she was there since the beginning of my pregnancy because of how attentive and caring she was. At my labor, my doula was instrumental in helping me get through the pain. When I wanted to tap out she gave me encouraging words to keep going. My doula assisted me by massaging the right spots, helping me breath through the contractions, feeding me and making sure I stayed hydrated. My doula worked well with my midwives. Their teamwork was unmatched! My doula was the missing piece to my natural birth puzzle. I will be forever grateful for her services! Money well spent! Would highly recommend using Root Mama for all of your doula needs!
When I found out I was 6 weeks pregnant, I started lookingfor a doula because this was my first child and I wanted everything to be done naturally and didnt know where to start. I chose Root Mama after an extensive search because The company resonated with me. Freya was very knowledgeable about natural birth and breastfeeding. This was especially important to me because everyone around me would only speak about how hard it was going to be. I needed someone in my corner rooting for me.My doula helped me prepare for a natural birth by helping me come up with a birth plan, assisting in finding a midwife, holding classes about the process and exercises to help with contractions, walking me through everything step by step, offering ideas about a topic when I had none, helping come up with alternatives to medication, customizing herbal tea blends, doing prenatal yoga and meditation with me, etc. the list goes on. The assistance she provided during my pregnancy was invaluable. She really made the process for me as seamless as possible. At mylabor, my doula was instrumental in helping me relax, breathe, and keep my eye on the main goal. She did the exercises with me to help with contractions when my spouse needed a break. She kept a cool towel for me. She provided essential oils, a jazz playlist and a soothing tone. She always reminded me that the pain was bringing me closer to my beautiful baby boy. She also kept stressors and negativity out of my birthing room. She also made sure I had snacks and juice to stay nourished and hydrated. My doula worked with my midwives to ensure that I did not have to stray away from my birth plan. My midwife and doula were the perfect team working to make sure I had everything I needed.After I had my baby, my doula came to my home and washed dishes, cooked, folded clothes, made me an herbal bath, did meditation with me and we recited positive affirmations/visualization of my childs bright future. She also assisted in healing my womb. She was there whenever I had questions and rushed to my side when I went into labor. It was especially nice to take a nice herbal bath and relax while someone cooked and did household chores. I really know that she loves her work and cares deeply for her mothers. I dont want to know what my birth experience would have been like with out Root Mama. It was the complete experience. She provided assistance not only physically but mentally and spiritually as well.Quanesha
Thank you RootMama for my personalized tea and herbal baths.
Amazing service!! I would recommend this to people!
Rootmama Maternal Care and my doula Freya were great! Freya is very knowledgeable in her field as a doula and also displays a genuine love for her role as a doula. Not only is she an expert in her role she is socially knowledgeable with the medical professionals in our area, which helped me with exploring options that met my criteria. My expectations consisted of having the most natural friendly birth hospital, doctor, and doula to help me have a successful, safe, unmedicated VBAC after 2 c-sections. I was determined not to have a c-section again, and Freya helped me emotionally to keep that mindset and physically to prepare for a smooth labor and delivery. She also provided my husband with some very informative educational material on childbirth and other related subjects so that he could help me emotionally and physically as well. I am very thankful and grateful to have had Freya as my doula, without her warm calming presence and expertise my VBAC could have gone the exact opposite of my expectations. I am very grateful that this birthing experience this time around resulted in me feeling more rewarded, positive, and accomplished in knowing that the next time around I can do it again the way that God intended, naturally! Thank you Freya for your genuine love, support, and expertise!
