Trusted Collaborators for Your Complete Support
Thoughtful Referrals for Additional Care
At Holistic Family Doulas, we know that families often need support that reaches beyond what we personally offer. That’s why we’ve built relationships with a small network of trusted, thoughtful providers — from midwives and pelvic-health physical therapists to holistic nutritionists and lactation consultants.
These practitioners are independent professionals who run their own practices and work directly with families outside of Holistic Family Doulas. While we don’t manage their care or coordinate services, we’re intentional about who we refer to and we’re always happy to share the names of providers whose work we respect and whose approach aligns with ours.
Each of these providers brings their own depth, skill and perspective and many share a similar commitment to holistic, trauma-informed, whole-family care. Whether you’re preparing for birth, healing in the fourth trimester or navigating fertility, these referrals are here to help you find the additional support you may be looking for in a way that feels aligned, thoughtful and supportive.

Testimonials
Dr. Sam O'Brian '
The Hive Wellness Center in Geneva
We are beyond grateful to partner with Holistic Family Doulas and truly consider them an essential part of the care network we trust for our patients. Their team is made up of some of the most compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated doulas we have had the privilege of working alongside.
What makes their work so special is the way they truly listen. Every family feels seen, supported, and empowered to make informed decisions that align with their values and vision for birth. Time and time again, our patients come back sharing how supported, confident, and cared for they felt. Often telling us they were completely blown away by the depth of education, emotional presence, and thoughtfulness provided by their doula.
We trust Holistic Family Doulas wholeheartedly and are incredibly thankful to have them serving our community. Their commitment to personalized doula care, evidence-based education, and family-centered birth support makes a lasting impact on the families they serve and we are honored to continue referring our patients to such an exceptional team.

I can’t say enough good things about Libby, Errin and the Holistic family doulas team. They are kind and understanding as well as very knowledgeable prenatal as well as postnatally. My patients have really appreciated their knowledge and care during their pregnancy.
Holistic Family Doulas is my preferred agency when referring clients for doula support in home birth. As a provider, I value their holistic, family-centered approach and the grounded professionalism their doulas bring into the birth space. Their team is knowledgeable, emotionally intelligent, and deeply respectful of physiologic birth and the midwifery model of care. I trust Holistic Family Doulas to support families with presence, clarity, and heart, and I genuinely appreciate our collaborative relationship in caring for birthing families.

After 20 years of advocating, supporting, and caring for women in our community, I'm quite the 'mama bear' when it comes to who I trust with my referrals. That's why I wholeheartedly and confidently recommend Errin, Libby and the entire Holistic Family Doulas team.
These women are phenomenal. They are deeply educated, incredibly experienced, and bring a wholly present and genuinely loving energy to every client. They truly empower women to choose their own path, whether that's in a hospital or at home, providing clear education and unwavering support without ever pushing their own ideas. Their approach respects and uplifts every family's unique journey.
What is very special and extraordinarily vital, too often missing, is the postpartum support that Holistic Family Doulas provide. This is a crucial service that is so important for helping Mom to heal much faster, and the family feels supported and nourished. From start to finish, their work is wholesome, heartfelt, and transformative.
I refer to Libby, Errin, and their team all day long, without a moment's hesitation. For truly empowering, loving, and profoundly nourishing support during such a sacred time, they are simply wonderful.
