Doula Testimonials

 

Dale Kaplan is the real deal. She gives you the tools you need to become empowered for the most important experience of your life—giving birth!  I highly recommend this amazing woman for all your doula needs.

— Ann Walters, 2019


Being high-risk, I needed that extra layer of support—and Dale provided it in every possible way. When I say she was there every step of the way, I truly mean it. Even though my birth plan didn’t go as expected, Dale was by my side for all 20+ hours. She stayed calm, supportive, and present. She advocated for me when I couldn’t speak up for myself, and she communicated with the doctors and nurses the entire time to make sure I felt heard and cared for.
I would recommend Dale a thousand times over to any woman who wants to experience something different—something empowering. With Dale, you will be supported, you will be heard, and you will not be alone.

When I decided to have a doula for my 3rd pregnancy my first thought was I want it to be different. I did not want to go through the same issue and complications that I had before . So when I communicated that to Dale she was very sure that this time would be different because I had her. She even suggested Dr. Pleeter and the hospital I should transfer too if I wanted to have a better experience.

Dale was so real , and understanding. She arrived earlier than expected to Sinai Hospital. She sat with me while I did registration and she sat with me the whole time during registration and even when it was time to go back to get my c-section she was right there by my side . I am forever grateful for having Dale during my pregnancy because my body healed extremely well. She listened to my concerns and when I referred her to my sister using her for her pregnancy as well it was the best experience ever . She was there for her even when I couldn’t be there for healing for my c-section . I would recommend Dale 10x to any woman that wants to be heard in the delivery room, wants to be treated fairly and wants to have an experience. She is that girl.

Having Dale as my doula was one of the best decisions I made for myself and my baby, KBMS. She didn’t just stand by me — she spoke for me in the hospital when I needed an advocate most, making sure my wishes were respected and my voice was heard. From labor through postpartum, Dale gave me strength, calm, and clarity. She helped me trust my body, supported me through the tough balance of breastfeeding and formula, and reminded me to honor rest and healing in these fragile first weeks. Her presence made me feel protected, respected, and empowered. Dale is not just a doula — she is a true guardian of mothers and babies, and I will forever be grateful that KBMS’s first chapter began with her by our side.

“My doula service with Dale surpassed what I could have expected. It was my first time ever using a doula and this was my third pregnancy. Having dale gave me slot of reassurance through out the pregnancy. I’m someone who can come up with a lot of scenarios and questions and she was always a text or call away to answer any questions I had. During my labor she was calm and ensured my needs were always met and that we stuck as close to my birth plan we created when we first met. She even gave dad tools to help ease my contractions so he was also involved in the labor. After labor when we were finally home dale even helped me ensure baby was latching well. If ever I decide to go for the fourth I’d definitely want dale again. ”


-Candise 2025

I really love how super easy and assessable, and available you were with me,during my pregnancy. Most importantly how much information I got from you both during and after pregnancy. The fact that you filled out an emotional gap where fear came from most times with tons of information that was very helpful.

There’s no other way I could’ve done it without much of your help.

Doula Dale is an incredible support for anyone who feels unsure or unstable during pregnancy. She comes with so many resources, but more than that she shows up with honesty, warmth and a real commitment to being there for you. For me , she was a strong advocate in the delivery room-making sure the team stayed accountable when I was pushing and explaining what I needed so I could have the best outcome. I honestly don’t think I would have felt this comfortable or confident without her experience by my side. Dale cares deeply, and her humble passion is exactly what makes her so right for this work
