Post a testimonial for Sloan Thompson
10/4/2023
My partner and I decided to hire a doula because we really wanted that emotional and physical support. That being our first pregnancy, we had many questions and concerns. So after extensive research we came across Sloan, she was so professional. The amount of information she provided at our first meeting set her apart and became the deciding factor to hiring her. She just made us feel so comfortable. She was with us at the time of labor and leading up to it, explaining how the birth would go and what to expect. Unfortunately, I had some complications; Sloan was there guiding us, holding my hand and offering suggestions. It's what kept us so calm and pushing forward. She was so encouraging and gentle. Just a wonderful soul! She even assisted with getting my son to latch on for a feeding when the nurse was busy. I am currently pregnant and did not hesitate to rehire Sloan. I know with her methods and expertise that I'm in good hands. Going into an unknown situation, she just made the entire experience so positive. Would definitely recommend Sloan for before, during and after labor!

I genuinely appreciated Sloan's support during my pregnancy and postpartum journey. From the moment we first checked in they were an amazing support stystem by communicating thoroughly with me and sharing knowledge with me.
anything that they were unsure of there was always acknowledgement and follow up after researching with their team. This was my first pregnancy and I am so glad to have gone through it with Sloan ??
