“As first-time parents, we knew we wanted a birth experience rooted in evidence, but we also wanted to feel emotionally supported and truly heard. From our first meeting, Dereka created a space that felt inclusive, calm, and empowering. She never imposed opinions — instead, she presented research, options, and helped us make informed decisions with confidence.
During labor, she was steady, intuitive, and incredibly supportive — not just for me, but for my partner too. We felt protected, respected, and fully informed every step of the way. I cannot imagine navigating our birth without her.”
“Our lifestyle requires discretion, flexibility, and a level of professionalism that isn’t easy to find — especially here in Dallas. Carter Comprehensive Birth exceeded every expectation. Dereka and her team provided seamless overnight newborn care while we traveled frequently between Dallas and other cities, adapting to changing schedules without disruption.
Most importantly, we trusted her completely — with our home, our privacy, and our baby. The level of confidentiality, organization, and calm expertise she brought into our Dallas home allowed us to rest and focus on work when needed. This is truly concierge newborn care in Dallas.”
“I’ll be honest — I thought taking a childbirth class in Dallas was going to be awkward and overwhelming. Instead, it was one of the most empowering experiences of my life. Dereka didn’t just teach information — she prepared me. I left understanding what my partner’s body was doing, how to support her physically and emotionally, and how to advocate when needed.
When labor started, I wasn’t panicked — I was ready. That confidence came directly from her Dallas childbirth education class. As a dad, I felt included, respected, and equipped. I would recommend her to any partner in the DFW area who wants to show up strong.”
