The Womb Room

My husband and I took the holistic birth class with Odile and it was very helpful for us in preparing for our first child. We are really looking forward to the other classes we have scheduled!

Really enjoyed the holistic birthing class - great evidence based information. Felt much more confident and prepared after attending

My daughter and I recently starting attending Baby and Me Yoga and it has been such a wonderful experience. Allison is so kind, warm, and welcoming. We look forward to her class every week.

We found our doula Shannon Duir through the womb room and are so grateful we did. Shannon is an old soul. We cant thank her enough for the support she provided during our pregnancy and birth. We interviewed several doulas each with a strong background, but our gut told us Shannon was the right fit. We made the right choice. She came prepared, asked the right questions, and made sure we were comfortable with the process. She set a positive vibe in the labor room from the start and was with us during the most challenging part of the labor, helping us deliver a healthy baby. Her soft voice, warm smile, and confidence was a guiding light during the final hours of labor. For anyone questioning hiring a doula Shannon reinforced our belief it is an investment well worth making.

First time parents working with Zainab Chopra as a postpartum doula. I cannot say enough good things about Zainab.

Neither my husband nor myself have family in the area so we knew we wanted a doula to help us the first few weeks while I recovered and we learned how to raise a baby.

Zainab was perfect! She was reliable, communicative and knowledgeable. She showed my husband and I how to do things such as swaddling, baby wearing, nail trimming and bathing.

In addition to showing us all things baby related she was an open book of baby knowledge including everything from skin care to milestones.

As a human she was wonderful to work with and her cooking is amazing.

Finally, she was so meticulous and took such good care of our baby, we knew we could count on her for helping with chores such as washing bottles or folding laundry and for watching the baby while we slept in, took showers, or just relaxed.

Would absolutely work with Zainab again — she is amazing, we love her and so does our baby

Our Doula Shanté was absolutely incredible! I truly do not think I would have been able to deliver my sweet baby boy fully unmedicated if it weren’t for her knowledge, support, and positive attitude throughout the entire process. My husband was skeptical of hiring a doula prior to our birth experience and now it’s the #1 thing he has been recommending to our friends/family who are expecting soon. We could not be happier with our experience!

I am so grateful that I found lactation consultant Jonelle through the Womb Room. She came right to our home and provided an incredible amount of guidance throughout our lactation journey. I struggled with milk production and my baby’s weight gain, but with her support I’ve been able to successfully breastfeed and help my baby grow nice and chubby. I truly don't think I would have been successful without her. Beyond her expertise, she is exceptionally kind, passionate, and practical—an absolute joy to be around and to get to know.

Shannon was amazing! The birth of my son didn’t go as planned but she was supportive and helpful every step of the way and made the experience as positive and memorable as possible. She asked the nurses things on my behalf that I forgot I had even expressed an interest in. She wasn’t just there to support me, but she routinely checked in with my partner too. Definitely highly recommend!

So grateful for the womb room! I was able to find my postpartum doula (Jenny) through them. They had many available doulas and helped facilitate me securing the right person For my family. I can’t say enough about Jenny! She was the calm in the storm for me. She took care of me and my baby, as her own and provided us so much compassion, kindness, and encouragement! She’s experienced and also a lifelong learner so there was no issue that came up that she wasn’t willing to dig a little deeper for me to find a solution! I would definitely recommend her for your postpartum care you won’t be disappointed!

Additionally, I participated in the baby gear exchange and the people there are just so welcoming and nurturing. I look forward to continuing to participate in activities that they have throughout my motherhood journey.

The Womb Room has been an invaluable resource for my partner and I as we have navigated preparing for our first child. Not only have the childbirth education classes been incredibly informative, its focus on building community has helped normalize my partner and I's fears and questions about pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. Kristie is supportive, honest, and helped us to feel empowered in identifying our own birth and postpartum care preferences and modeled how we can advocate for ourself when working with our medical providers. I cannot recommend The Womb Room enough for first time parents!

I booked a postnatal massage with Erik from The Womb Room yesterday and it was magical. I highly recommend the in home massage… which in my case the weather was lovely so he set up in my backyard with birds chirping and warm sunlight and calming music. Almost 2 weeks postpartum and it was the best!

The Womb Room was fantastic in preparing me for birth and postpartum. My doula and lactation consult were absolutely fantastic and set me up for success both in my prenatal and postnatal experience. Highly recommend for anyone pregnant in the area.

My husband and I found the Womb Room when we were searching for local doula services and we had a great experience! The staff were great at communicating thoroughly and promptly when we were looking into their services, and it was so easy to connect with Shannon (our doula!). We started the search a little on the later side, so we really appreciated how quick Shannon was to jump into action. We had an initial meeting via Zoom to get to know each other and then had two in-person meetings at our home before birth of our daughter. The in-person meetings were really helpful in understanding our needs/wants for the birth experience and Shannon gave us some great physical/mental exercises to consider! She was also so attentive when we got close to the birth. Her bedside manner was amazing and added to the calm - and her ability to create a relaxing ambience in the delivery room was great! She was hands on with me and so considerate of my husband when things got going. After we made it home, Shannon came for a postpartum visit to assist with breastfeeding and provided more resources for assistance. We would absolutely recommend working with the Womb Room and Shannon in particular!

From beginning to end, it was a pleasant experience with the womb room. I found them by doing a Google search and I am so glad I did. The initial phone meeting gave me so much insite and positive affirmation into their services ,that I decided to speak with 2 of their doulas to make my final decision on who would go on this very important journey with me. I AM PLEASED beyond belief that Erica Green was my doula. She was patient caring and loving. It truly felt like I had a family member advocating for me. When i had questions or concerns before and during my birthing date. From her advice to the knowledge she gave me on every topic I had questions and concerns about, made it truly a great experience. My labor was 2 days long and she was with me and my boyfriend every step of the way. She even reaches out to this day to check up on me and ask how we are doing . She is truly a new addition to our growing family 💖 I would recommend her over and over again !!!!

In the 7th month of my pregnancy, I decided that I wanted to pursue a VBAC after a traumatic birthing experience with my first child. I reached out to The Womb Room about the possibility of hiring a birth doula to help me and my husband navigate the VBAC attempt and a more positive birthing experience this time around. They responded immediately and connected me with several doulas who reached out to introduce themselves to see if we were a good match. Each doula I spoke with provided me with a detailed overview of their background and services and allowed me the space and time to choose who I thought would be the best fit for our situation and personalities. I felt a connection with Morgan and requested to have her as our Birth Doula and am so happy with this decision! Morgan was supportive, informative, intuitive, responsive and warm from the moment we first spoke through our postpartum visit. She provided information and education that allowed me to make informed decisions regarding my birth plan but also helped to manage my expectations during my time in the hospital. Morgan provided the safe and loving support I needed after a previous traumatic birthing experience and this was vital in giving me a more positive experience the second time around. She also came to my home for a postpartum visit and allowed me the time and space to process the experience with her, and this alone was more helpful than I could ever put into words. The Womb Room provided me with postpartum doula resources in the event that I may need these services as well. I felt so supported and cared for throughout my entire experience with The Womb Room and highly recommend them to anyone in need of the vast array of services they offer!

My partner and I took the one-day Holistic Childbirth Essentials class yesterday and we had a great experience. Kristie is a phenomenal childbirth educator and her training as a teacher really shows! We both learned a lot in the class and were sent home with even more materials for additional reading. I felt the class was a good mix of direct instruction, videos, Q&As, and hands-on technique. Totally clear to me why The Womb Room is so highly recommended across Baltimore (and even the whole state of Maryland since we were the only couple at yesterday's class who live locally!) If you live further away, but you're considering a class or event at The Womb Room, it's definitely worth the drive.

my husband and i got the 4-class package from the womb room and absolutely loved each one we took!! jonelle’s infant feeding course was so reassuring and informative, and odile’s classes on postpartum & baby basics and holistic childbirth essentials were just incredible. she gave us both so much calm and confidence going into this journey and we are so grateful for her expertise and guidance!! the womb room is truly just a little haven here in baltimore 💛

I took prenatal yoga classes here during my pregnancy, and they were exactly what I needed at the time — low pressure, calming, and a good way to slow down and connect with my body. The instructor was supportive and the environment was relaxed and welcoming.

I stopped going toward the end of my pregnancy because life got hectic, but now that I’m starting to get into a routine as a new mom, I plan to come back for the postnatal and mommy & me classes. It feels like a good place to ease back in, both physically and mentally.

I signed up for the Holistic Package at the Womb Room towards the end of my second trimester of my first pregnancy. I have felt immense support and thankfulness for this place and all I have encountered throughout my time here thus far. I've been taking weekly prenatal yoga classes and workshops- all of the instructors have been great. My husband and I took the 6 week childbirth education course and I just recently participated in the zenful birth workshop- both with Odile who has been so fun, informative, and kind. My doula Erica Green is amazing and so helpful! I can't say enough about this place and the supportive community I have had throughout my pregnancy- currently 38 weeks. I am looking forward to postnatal yoga and pilates as well as baby and me yoga, and the post-partum support groups when it's my time.

Sunni was our postpartum doula at a very challenging time after birth and I can't tell enough about how valuable their support has been. Sunni has a kind, calm presence and is very good at anticipating a caregiver's needs even after being with you for a short time. In addition to helping with our infant's care and light housework, Sunni provided us with resources on things such as lactation and local events for families. I loved the outlines they shared from the day spent with us that laid out our son's feeding and wake time schedule. Sunni not only played with our son when he was awake but also spent time with our toddler and dog when he was asleep!! They all loved her. Just like her name suggests, Sunni brings a bright, positive presence to the lives of families they support. We are very happy to have gotten to know Sunni!

Morgan made all the difference for my birth experience with my second. We didn't have to chance to meet her prior to labor as she was filling in for our doula who was sick at the time. Despite this, her calming and nurturing presence combined with her skills and reassuring confidence put me at ease with her immediately. She could anticipate my needs and meet them before I was even aware of them myself. Whenever I felt panicky or started to lose focus, she was able to help me center myself again and channel that energy towards the baby. My husband also felt very comfortable with her and appreciated the ideas and techniques she suggested. We both are confident that we would have had a much different and worse experience without Morgan by my side. I couldn't have done it without her!

We have been using Womb Room to get ready for the birth of our first baby. We found our doula through them and have been utilizing their yoga and educational classes too. The instructors are engaging, friendly and very knowledgeable. The space is warm and welcoming. They cultivate a sense of community with all their families, and have other community events outside of their classes. I also love that they are welcoming and inclusive of ALL families and birthing people. I would definitely recommend them, if you're looking for just a pre-natal yoga class or a holistic birth and postpartum support team!

My wife and I greatly enjoyed the all-day class. The resources
Kristie provided were extremely valuable including written material, clear presentation, and practical exercises.

There was a lot of information on different options and interventions while making it clear that the best choice is the one that you make. This positive attitude gave us a lot of confidence. The practical exercises also helped us identify gaps in our communication and birth plan - gaps which we can now fill.

We also really appreciated the single day format, we felt it was much easier to fit into our schedules.

We purchased the Complete Eduction package and Unlimited yoga to prepare for our sons arrival. Going to these classes really calmed my anxiety around birthing and the birth experience. I felt empowered to make the right decisions for myself and my family. My partner and I learned what to expect and how to advocate for me during labor and delivery rather than just doing whatever they said. All of the instructors here are so friendly and they answer all of your questions thoroughly. Additionally, each of the 4 classes sent us home with a workbook with more information in it that we have been able to continually refer back to. Prenatal Yoga really helped to clear my mind and made me more flexible and open for birth. I took the breathing exercises we did and applied them during my labor. The Womb Room made a huge impact for me and I really think it’s because of them that I was able to feel so confident and have such an amazing birth experience. I continue to do Postnatal Yoga as well as Baby and Me Yoga, both have been amazing. I can’t recommend this place enough!

The Womb Room has been such an amazing blessing to our family. My partner and I attended the Holistic Childbirth Series that was taught by Kristie Graybill. The course was fun, engaging, and comprehensive. It helped to facilitate so many positive and supportive conversations between my partner and I. Now we feel prepared and ready to rock our natural birth and will be forever grateful to the talented and knowledgeable instructors at The Womb Room. I highly recommend this course to any birthing person. You will be welcomed into the most supportive and loving community where your questions will be answered and you will become mentally prepared to embark upon the birthing journey with confidence and joy.

As a new parent I was very nervous. I cannot say enough great words about Kristie and the experience we had at the womb room. The class was informative and fun. It was great to not only learn how to care for a newborn but also feel a sense of community with other new parents and instructors as we got ready to make this huge step in life. We continue to keep up with post birth classes as it is helpful to feel as there are support options through this great company! If you haven't booked your class yet...get on it!!

We took a fantastic one-day Holistic Childbirth Essentials class here with Kristie Graybill. It helped both myself and my partner feel a lot more confident about birth and gave us a lot of helpful information to educate ourselves about all the possibilities that can happen during childbirth and to help me decide what we want and how to best advocate for myself and the baby during labor. The space is warm, cozy, and bright. Highly recommend!

I am in LOVE with this place! I signed up for the holistic package and am so pleased with my experience. My Saturday mornings are not the same unless I go to my prenatal yoga class. I feel so uplifted, empowered, supported, relieved, relaxed, and Rejuvenated when I attend this sanctuary. The Womb Room is such a beautiful place to allow women to come together and support each other in the miracle of birth. My Doula Antwanette has been a gem. I am so looking forward to having her at my birth. She has been my go to when I have been struggling or needing guidance and I’m so grateful to her and The Womb Room. Yesterday I took my childbirth class that came with the holistic package and I feel like all of my worries have been calmed. I feel empowered to have the delivery that I choose. I feel educated to make the decisions necessary for a beautiful birth. I’m obsessed with this place and want every pregnant woman to go through The Womb Room and experience all the love and support that the sanctuary of a place provides.

I just completed Womb Room's 6-week Childbirth Series and was so, so happy that this was the class we decided to take! There are so many options out there when it comes to childbirth education, but I'm confident that Womb Room provides a completely unique experience. The course focuses on building a community of others around you, everything you need to know about childbirth as well as encouraging birthing persons and partners to advocate for their preferences throughout the process. It was empowering to learn about all of the different options out there when it comes to the birthing process.

Kristie was our instructor and she was absolutely wonderful! She made the class time fly by and was a wealth of knowledge! I've also heard that the other instructors are great too, so you really can't go wrong with choosing to go with the Womb Room. This was one of the best decisions we made in our pregnancy/birthing experience!

My husband and I took the Holistic Hospital Series through the Womb Room with Kristie. Kristie is absolutely amazing - super friendly and very knowledgeable. She taught the material in an unbiased and factual way so that we could make informed decisions to meet our wants/needs. She also created a comfortable (virtual) atmosphere for open discussion, which helped our class form a sense of community.

Now that we’ve taken the class, we can’t imagine experiencing labor without this knowledge and confidence. We would highly recommend taking this class, especially for first time parents!
