Hiring Elisabeth as our doula for our second hospital birth was the absolute best decision we made. She is calm, comforting, non-judgmental and very knowledgeable. She instinctively knew when and how to offer support to both me and my husband during labor and she is excellent at "reading the room". My husband and I both agree that Elisabeth was the most important factor in being able to have a labor and delivery in the hospital without medical or pain interventions. We highly recommend her!
