Client Testimonials for Renee Wymer
Dawn Benjamin
Renee was my Doula at my son's birth in September of 2010. I did not have a doula with the birth of my first son in 2007 - having Renee there made a huge difference. She helped keep me calm and focused on having a natural child birth. She graciously blended into the scenery and was supportive when I needed her and also seemed to fade into the background when I didn’t. She helped my husband support me in ways he didn’t know how and brought us closer in the process. I would highly recommend her to anyone - she instantly became a mother/ sister figure and went with the ups and downs of birth. She was always there saying the right thing, making the right touch and offering that wonderful smile every time I needed it! She empowered me to do what I knew I could. Also, the pictures she took are also some of the most treasured photos I have of me and my son! She was spectacular - I would hire her again in a heartbeat and recommend her to anyone!

Renee was the doula at my daughter's birth in October 2010. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Knowing she was there to support me gave me the confidence I needed to have a natural birth; I knew if I started doubting myself she'd make sure I hung in there. And I had my husband, doula, mother, and mother-in-law at my daughter's birth. Renee made all the difference in the world though. Her confident and outgoing personality made me feel secure that my birth wishes would be respected and supported, and I knew if my pain coping techniques weren't working she would be there to help me try different things. I trusted her to help me through the process, and I loved having her by my side.
