Testimonials:
We had no doula for our first baby; my husband was skeptical about having one for our second; as soon as I learned I was pregnant for a third time, time he wanted to make sure we had a doula again.
During my first birth, without a doula, I required surgical intervention and the baby had to be in I.C.U. I had a doula during the birth of my second baby it was wonderful! I felt calm and supported. I know it made a difference for both me and my baby!
I had always been resistant to breast feeding but now I love it .
The prenatal yoga classes were a 'life-saver' for stress relief.
When my friends ask me what a doula is, I tell them a birthing coach. But a doula is so much more!
The doula’s presence gave me assurance and support. She was an invaluable member of my birthing team.
I am eternally grateful to the Doula Foundation for helping me provide my son with the perfect entrance into this world. I will always look back at the year and a half that we were involved in the prenatal and postpartum programs and know that every minute was a beautiful investment in the beginning of my child's path in life. These women will always hold a special, thankful, place in my heart.
In my experience working as a Labor and Delivery nurse, I have found Doulas to be a beneficial team member in the birth process for both the patient and their loved ones. Doulas are able to offer the patient even more personalized care throughout this monumental experience.
