What our clients have to say

"Rebecca was amazing when I had my daughter! She was very attentive to mine and my husbands needs during the whole process of labor and supported our wishes for the birth experience. We felt very comfortable and reassured having her there during the birth of our daughter!"

Sarah W. Doula Client

"Rebecca provided crucial postpartum support to me after the birth of my daughter. I ended up having a hard time with breastfeeding and had a difficult postpartum recovery, and Rebecca was a constant source of affirmation, guidance, and practical, hands-on support. She is a big part of why I achieved my goal of sticking with breastfeeding for one year and she is the reason why I finally learned how to breastfeed in multiple positions, including laying down (lifesaver!). Her passion for women's health shines through in every session and I was extremely grateful every time this caring professional visited my home. I highly recommend Rebecca!!"

Anonymous Lactation Client

"Rebecca is an excellent doula! She was attentive and active during my entire 24 hour labor. She completely respected and upheld all my wishes and requests. I felt safe having her there as a support and advocate. I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a doula."

Maxine J. L. Doula Client

"Rebecca was very thorough, asking questions prior to putting together the wellness coaching document. The suggestions are well thought out and organized, and can easily form the platform of a new wellness routine. : ) Would gladly work with again in the future. Highly recommended!"

Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you serve?

Rebecca is happy to support in-person clients within Harrisonburg, Rockingham county, Staunton, and northern Augusta county. She also is able to support doula clients who live in these cities/counties but plan to deliver at a birth center or hospital in Charlottesville. Rebecca is happy to support all other clients virtually.

Do you accept insurance?

Fo in-person doula clients we are currently working on being able to accept all forms of Virginia Medicaid. Feel free to ask us about the status of our ability to accept your MCO. We are not able to accept other insurances at this time, but hopefully in the near future! If you need us to create a superbill or some other documentation for you to submit to your insurance or health sharing group, feel free to ask!

Do you offer a sliding scale, payment plan, or trades?

Yes! We are committed to making our services affordable and available. Please contact us to see what we can work out!

Do support only certain types of births, certain types of families, or certain types of feeding journeys?

We will provide doula services at births at birth centers, home, or hospital; medicated or unmedicated; high or low risk, etc! And we believe that #fedisbest, so a well as support families who are fully breastfeeding or exclusively pumping we are glad to support families who are combo feeding/supplementing for whatever reason! We're glad also to support many different kinds of families with many different backgrounds and beliefs.

Are you faith-based?

Rebecca is a follower of Jesus, and is glad to draw from her faith in her services if clients desire this. However we are glad to serve clients of different faiths or no faith as well, and will always be respectful of clients wishes.

Is your name Rebecca Amstutz, or Rebecca Whitestone?

Legally, Rebecca's name is still Rebecca Amstutz, so her certifications are under that name. Whitestone is the family name that she and her husband unofficially adopted (see Revelation 2:17).

¿Habla español?

Un pocito, pero no lo suficiente como para ofrecer servicios en español en este momento. Lo siento. Esperamos que en el futuro.
