Client Testimonials for Stephanie Butler
Meg Anderson
Stephanie filled in for my original doula at the last minute when my original doula had a family emergency while I was in labor. From the moment she walked in the door, Stephanie was warm and comforting. I felt as though I knew her already. She immediately took charge and asked how she could help ease my discomfort. Most important, she helped guide my husband on how he could help me. Stephanie always asked when I needed space, or just wanted to be with my husband, and was respectful of our privacy. When it came time to push, she helped me to stay focused, and helped my husband help me. Stephanie is so knowledgeable about labor and delivery, and such a warm, calm presence when you need it most. I highly recommend her!
