Post a testimonial for Patience Mays

Patience was my birth doula for my last home birth and we're so glad she was here. She brewed up the yummiest bone broth while I labored and was very encouraging throughout my labor and immediate postpartum

Patience was a student midwife at my son's birth and I am so lucky to have had her as part of my birth experience! She was a calming, encouraging voice throughout the process. Patience was telling me to trust and listen to my body but also offering help and guidance when she thought I needed it. She kept me hydrated and fed throughout labor. My midwife and Patience got me cleaned up and Patience started me on homepathy for swelling after birth right away. She is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to labor, birth, postpartum, AND newborn care. I hope she is present at my next birth! Having a trustworthy birth team makes all the difference. I absolutely recommend including Patience in your birth team.

Patience was such a vital part of our birth team. She did a great job providing support for my husband and I during my labor. As a first time mom who had done a lot of research, she was very knowledgeable and helped me talk through some of the decisions I had to make regarding my care and my son’s care. She knew my birth plan inside and out and was able to help us to advocate for and achieve the natural, hospital birth we had hoped for. Throughout our prenatal visits, ours son’s birth and our postpartum visit we felt so lucky to have her there to help navigate this special journey. We can’t thank her enough or speak more highly of our experience with her.

I can't recommend Patience enough! She offered support even prior to my birth, suggested natural supplements for an symptoms I was having and guided me to trust my body before turning to any OTC medications. My baby was born with the cord around her neck & while everyone made sure she was okay, Patience stayed by my side to make sure I was okay, too. Beautiful experience and I won't hesitate to use her for my next pregnancy when the times comes!

Patience was everything I was looking for in a doula before I was even pregnant. I found Patience in a Facebook group before we had even conceived and let her know I was going to reach out when I became pregnant. She matched the values and morals I follow, it was important to me to have a very holistic perspective on pregnancy and delivery.
I didn’t have a traumatic first delivery but I also didn’t have a support person that helped instill confidence in me and my body. I wanted a non medicated hospital birth but with my then support team I was told I couldn’t do it and ended up with an epidural. Patience was the guiding hand in educating myself and helping me get to a level of confidence I’ve never known. I am very honored to say she helped me guide both of my beautiful daughters earthside at home. She’s very gentle and nurturing in labor, she guides you by helping you in new positions, centering you during the waves, makes sure you are staying hydrated, brings you pain management support and vocalizes your birthing affirmations.
The level of knowledge and support she gave me was unmatched to my first pregnancy. I needed her then and now I tell everyone to invest in a Doula. I, myself, have been inspired to become a doula because of the impact Patience had on me and my birthing experience. I only wish I had her for my first, too.
I not only gained knowledge, support, and a new self confidence but I also gained a friend.

?????????? 5 stars! I cannot recommend Patience enough! She knew exactly what I needed without me having to say a word. She was so supportive throughout the pregnancy, and especially during the labor and birth of my baby girl, and even now a month later. I couldn't have done a natural hospital birth without her!! She is such a blessing! ??

Patience is amazing! She is so sweet and educated. The combination of having her own home birth and the education she has outside of that, she had my utmost trust with my birth! Every time I have a question patience can answer it for me right away. She really makes me feel comfortable about the whole birth process
