I had an amazing experience with Emily. From the beginning, I felt like we were on the same page. She offered great books to help me prepare. I was able to text her at any time of the day with questions or thoughts and always got a fast response. Her advice was always grounding and helpful. When I was stressed or being spastic she was always a voice of calm and reason. During our birth she was great. I never questioned the care I was getting, and completely trust Emily's guidance. She has a sweet and loving way of talking and has amazing wisdom that was really comforting to look to for support. She is the perfect balance of hippie and science. I cannot wait to use Emily for our next baby!

We were so fortunate to find Emily Bruno as our doula. Emily helped to make a 48 hour natural birthing experience safe and positive for all three of us. I can sincerely say we couldn't have done it without her and we also wouldn't have wanted to. Emily is incredibly smart, competent, well-read, and well loved here in the Richmond area (Henrico's Hospital staff couldn't say enough positive things about her). If you are looking for a rock star doula this is your woman! I also can't recommend all of the classes we took through MyBirth enough. They were a BIG help before, during and after the birth of our daughter. Thank you Emily and MyBirth for all that you do!
I cannot say enough good things about MyBirth as a company and Laura Grace specifically. Laura Grace was a steady, calming presence through our entire pregnancy, and she went above and beyond to make sure that we were prepared and informed when the big day came. Thank you all so much.
Choosing MyBirth and having Amy at our daughter's birth was like having a supportive, reassuring, composed and wise big sister who knew the ropes of birth. We had a plan and ideas about how we wanted it to go for us but talking with her leading up to the day and having her there to act as a sounding board was incredibly helpful to us. You don't know what you don't know but Amy fills that gap with kindness, knowledge and experience. For us, we can't imagine our experience without someone just like her present and we are ever grateful she was there.
The MyBirth doulas are nothing short of AMAZING. Choosing Amy as our birth doula has to be one of the best decisions we could have made during our second pregnancy. We first met in a group interview with several other doulas, and both my husband and I felt that we could easily connect with her and that she’d be a wonderful part of our birth team. Dr. Bagley and Meghann Batten at West End Midwifery spoke very highly of her and others at MyBirth, which definitely helped solidify our choice. Amy was so supportive and encouraging throughout my pregnancy, offering great advice and positive feedback, especially when I was feeling anxious about the birth process. During labor, she was always one step ahead and knew what I needed before I did. I’m about 7 weeks postpartum now and still feel like I can out with updates or questions anytime. Amy is the reason I now understand why people say everyone should have a doula for their birth. And I would be remiss to not give major props to Emily, who I first met about 3 years ago at an ICAN meeting a few months after my first daughter was born. I’ve been going to her VBAC support group ever since. She has been such a major inspiration in my journey from healing from a traumatic birth through achieving an unmedicated VBAC. I can’t say enough good things about the MyBirth team and how grateful I am to have found and embraced everything they have to offer to new and expecting parents in Richmond.
