Client Testimonials for Caitlin Sumner
Nadia
I cannot say enough great things about Cait. She is my third doula and by far the favorite... she's thoughtful, strong, friendly, humorous, down to earth, smart, and all around accommodating. She is genuinely caring and does it out of love and interest in people, and the passion is obvious. She stayed engaged throughout, was great with nurses and took guidance from my 40 year veteran midwife who likes to also keep things in control - and I could appreciate their ability to stay open and connected. She was just good vibes to have around and continuously sought ways to help support me. I could not have had the birth I had without her being right there, cheering me on when things got really tough with my unexpected 9 pounder - and I'm so happy I came across Cait. We still stay in touch and I'm glad we do :-)
