Pregnancy, Birth, and Postpartum Support

We are here
to ease and guide you.
Let’s weave dignity, nourishment, and joy into the next generation of parenting.

We are dual trained Birth and Postpartum Doulas and Certified Lactation Support Counselors. Let our wealth of experience bring you comfort and confidence.

 

Every new parent deserves time to pause, breathe, and feel human. Extra hands are essential.

We are truly thankful to the 4th dimension doulas for helping us get ready for (and come up for air after) childbirth. We both found Rose and Kat to be very knowledgeable, calming and empathetic, allowing us to define the contours of a huge and hugely mysterious event.

My wife and I are so grateful for Rose and Kat’s role in welcoming our baby boy into the world. They were kind, patient and gracious from start to finish. Highly recommend to anyone seeking extra support in the process. Our beautiful experience was largely due to their guidance and knowledge. Thank you Rose and Kat!

My experience with Fourth Dimension Doulas was amazing. Rose is very knowledgeable, empathic, caring, intuitive, attentive, honest, warm and able to adapt to any situation as it arises. She is good at keeping her calm and staying centered in stressful situations which was much needed for my ‘anxious self’. The level of support she provides is unlike anything I’d ever imagined- from handling hospital admissions to talking to care providers on my behalf, from hydration to honey sticks to keep me going, to counter pressure and words of encouragement when I thought I couldn’t go on much longer- she was able to tune into me and anticipate exactly what I needed in every moment! Not to mention all the care and resources she provided before and after birth. I am forever grateful!

Sometimes you you don't know exactly what you need as you enter into a new phase of your life, in this case pregnancy.

Most of the times the special ways we could take care of ourselves we dismiss because we think we can handle it. But this time, we stepped outside of our comfort zone and allowed space for a doula to help us. And because we connected to Kat, who is loving, present, patient, knowledgeable and so very thoughtful, we can not imagine doing this pregnancy without her.

If you're looking for a doula who loves her job, who understands the myriad of emotions and challenges that present themselves during pregnancy and who has stepped into her calling and therefore is passionate about what she does, then Kat is for you. She is intuitive, kind and smart. And she will provide you with a support you didn't even know you needed.

I am truly grateful for Rose Marcus [being] my Doula during my pregnancy and her being present at my birth. She was an amazing support system, trustworthy, and a great advocate on my behalf. She also made me feel so secure and comfortable during my labor and delivery and even during postpartum. I highly recommend her as a doula for any expecting mom. Such an amazing radiant soul that I am grateful to have experienced.

~ Desiree

Kat is one of the warmest people I know-she is loving, supportive, strong, and empowers others. She is bright and as a doula not living in my neighborhood did a ton of research to support me in caring for myself and finding the best resources near me for the questions I had. She is a mom and really understands the fear and also general discomfort one has during different points in pregnancy and postpartum. Anything I needed and still need now-she is here for me and supports me. I really feel like I hit the jackpot having her with me throughout this process.

Kat was phenomenal with my husband, the doctors, the nurses and the hospital staff. She stood by my side caring for me and was my advocate but didn’t overstep. She knew exactly how to be her role in the room. She even brought the staff a gift! I look forward to watching Kat continue on this journey and hope to have her next to me at all of my future births. She really made me feel seen, loved, and supported-she still checks in. I appreciate her and her knowledge and general understanding and ability to really meet you where you are-any time I was freaking out or crying or anxious she just got me and she was there. I really feel like any woman would benefit having her by their side.

Rose helped me get through one of the most challenging times of my life. She is a wealth of knowledge. Rose found many resources I needed and helped me find answers to all of my postpartum questions. Even though we lived far away, I felt deeply supported by Rose. My family and I will forever be grateful to her! 

~ Annie

I just want to say THANK YOU… for sending these two angels (Rose and Kat) my way being a new mom single at that they were just so sweet patient kind hearted and VERYYYY HELPFUL if I could I would recommend 100x again. Rose sweet calming voice during labor and Kat gentle and helpful hands was the perfect duo to start me and my baby's journey off. I couldn't have done it with out you ladies.

~Queen

[Kat] was absolutely incredible. She made my first labor and delivery experience so beautiful and peaceful. I don’t know how I would have done it without her. I was truly blessed to have her by my side on this journey.

~Shannel

Dear Rose, Almost seven (long) days after the birth of [our baby], both mother and baby are peacefully sleeping in the same room, lulled by the mating calls of the cheepers in the nearby marsh; quite a journey. Sending you my profound gratitude for the work you did with [Mom] before and during the birthing process. We are inspired by your focus, your patience, and your ability to hold space and channel energies. We certainly couldn't have welcomed [baby] elegantly without you and it was an honor to share this intimate moment with you.

~Roger

Kat and Rose understood that my husband and I have very different personalities and different preferences on how we receive and digest information. They were able to respond accordingly for both the prenatal and postnatal journey. I enjoyed the deep breaths that Rose begins her sessions with. We all needed to relax! I felt more secure knowing that Rose with be with me to defend for my preferences during labor & delivery. Even though I ended up having an unscheduled cesarean section, Rose made it to the hospital right before I entered into the operation room. She’s been a rock in this fast paced hospital experience.

I highly valued my postpartum recovery during pregnancy. However, at that time, I didn’t even fathom what recovery would entail. With the rawness and all-encompassing responsibilities of being a new mother, postnatal has been rough for me both physically and mentally. I requested separate counseling on how to deal with matrescence for me and my husband. Kat and Rose has been empathetic and dealt every curve ball with us, guiding us with resources and an open heart.
