Client Testimonials for Bethany Hoolboom
Crystal Pelkey
Bethany was a wonderful doula. She was so helpful for me and for my husband. It was so very important to me to be able to labor naturally, and Bethany was able to help so much with this process. Simple things such a reminding me to relax my shoulders during a contraction. Telling my husband how to rub my lower back or shoulders. Asking me if I needed water or chapstick. These little things amounted to so much! My husband appreciated all of her help as well, he said it made it so much easier with the suggestions that Bethany gave him to help me during labor. Bethany knew when to step in and offer her suggestions and she knew when to step back and let me work or let my husband help. It was an amazing balance and I have absolutely no complaints. Plus, she is an excellent photographer and we have some very precious photos to remember our daughters birth. Thank you Bethany! If there is a #4 in our future we will definitely use Bethany as our doula.
