Here is what a client named Justine MacLean has to say about working with Sue Chargo, ICBD, ICCE, (ICEA) Doula,:

I felt so lucky from the first time I spoke with Sue Chargo on the phone, and I felt that same luck throughout my entire experience with her.  Sue is kind and easy to talk to, and as a new mom who was greatly impcted by the physical changes of having a baby, I loved having someone who was easy to be around and caring.  She wants to help and as she got to know me, she would proactively take care of items without me asking.  I felt comoftable and more confident in taking care of my baby because I knew Sue had tons of experience and could guide us as we figured out what a newborn needs. 

If I could go back in time, I would have brought Sue into the picture sooner after my baby came home to dial down the overwhelm I felt.  Sue was always calm and positive, two things that were hard to naturally have with all the uncertainity we felt.  Her knowledge and patience are vast along with her dependability.  She coordinated a lot with me and always showed up on time, and I am grateful for all the time I spent with her.  I would work with Sue again, and I highly recommend her to others because she will ensure you and your family are taken of to the best of her ability.  From baby basics to helping around the house, Sue is open to assisting on anything I brought up.  I appreciate her humble yet helpful way, and I really loved working with Sue.

It was such a gift to have Linda at our birth. From the first meeting we had, we were so helped by the resources she provided, the information she gave, and the responsiveness and care that she gave us each step of the way. During the birth, Linda provided consistent support, helping me brethe steadily for hours, applying helpful back pressure and helping to create a peaceful enviornment that made me feel taken care of and at ease.

Here is what a client named Stephanie Huss has to say about working with Jeannie:

From the moment I met Jeannie, I knew that I wanted her to be a part of my birth team.  My previous births had not gone the way I had hoped.  I knew I needed someone very experienced on my team if things were going to be different this time.  She is so full of knowledge and grace that my anixiety level dropped dramatically once she was on board with us.

After the initial interview, my husband and I were able to meet with Jeannie once before my birth and had another meeting scheduled, but I went into labor early.  Jeannie was a calm and encouraging voice in the midst of a changed birthing location, preterm labor, and having to make decisions we hadn't had time to discuss yet.  Before she came to the hospital she talked me through several things on the telephone.

Once at the hosptial, she helped me with positioning and I'm sure that her adivce and exercises helped turn baby from a postieror position, which made labor go faster than it could have otherwise.  When I was too tired and wanted to get an epidural, she was supportive, even though she knew baby was coming soon.  When it was too late to get the epidural and I gave birth with just the pitocin and no pain medication, she was right there helping me through everything.  She also was very encouraging to my husband as he continued to support me.

Giving birth without the epidural was incredibly painful, but it was so amazing.  Jeannie was right there helping me to feel empowered to do it - even when I wanted to give up.  She was definitely a gift from God to me and my family.
