My husband and I made a last minute decision to hire a doula for our sons birth in 2013. It was then that we crossed paths with Sondra. Even though our time with her was brief, we quickly connected and I was attracted and comforted by her positive and loving energy. My water broke on Christmas morning, of all days to give birth... but she didn't make excuses. She was there. At the hospital. With us. On Christmas Day! Sondra was so helpful when it came time to make decisions and guided us through everything. When the contractions began to hit hard, she was there, coaching me when necessary and offering gentle and positive support along the way. We are now pregnant again and knew right away that we could not give birth without Sondra. Her assistant, Christine, is just as sweet and kind - they truly make a great team. I was recently hospitalized due to late-term bleeding issues and they showed up to stay with me until my husband was able to arrive. Every pregnant mother should have a doula, if they are half as amazing as Sondra and Christine! Highly, highly recommend!
