Support for Pregnancy, Birth, and Beyond in Sewickley, PA
We’re Marlee & Megan Malone-Franklin, a wife-and-wife doula team since 2014.
Our support for Pittsburgh-area families includes birth doula services, postpartum support, lactation consults, birthing classes, and gentle sleep consulting for infants and toddlers.
We attend births at home, The Midwife Center, and local area hospitals. We especially love helping families navigate the hospital environment during birth. (Over 90% of our doula clients plan hospital births.)
We serve clients birthing at:
“Megan and Marlee’s birth services were absolutely invaluable. Before the birth I often wondered if doulas were even necessary - what if I ended up having a cesarean? Well, I did end up with a c-section, and I still wouldn’t have had it any other way! They made me feel stronger and happier while giving birth.”
— Vanessa
