Post a testimonial for Jennifer Mendez

Jen was recommended to me by a coworker, he just had his first daughter and was telling me about doula and how their birth story was a success. I was curious of doula as my first pregnancy ended up in a cesarean and did not realize how traumatic the experience it was of me. This time around, pregnant with my second baby, I want it different. I want a successful vbac. Everything was healthy until I gotten news I have gestational diabetes and on top of that my OB schedule a cesarean with out my knowledge as a backup plan because 1. My first came over due, 2. He was 9lb baby 3. My aged over 35. 4. Gestational diabetes. This cause alot of emotions with my OBgyn and it was too late for me to change OBgyn. Jen reached out and we scheduled a zoom meeting and learning Jen's experiences in her 3 births and the way she was carried herself, she was attentive listening to me and my concerns and my desire of a VBAC. Her passionate and loving mother made my decision easy to have Jen as my doula! Jen made check ins on how I'm doing and my pregnancy. She is resourceful, she provided tips and homework for me to open up my pelvic area/floor. I made sure to work those homework daily because I want the birth that I want. She even request me to see a Webster Pretnal chiropractor which was new to me and I am willing to try! She always available for all my questions! She even provided backup Doulas for me to be reassure I am advocate for. Jen made it possible for mama like me with gestational diabetes to have a successful VBAC and being unmedicated is my dream that came true! She's so encouraging and positive. I highly recommend Jen!

Jennifer was such an amazing support system for us throughout my pregnancy and birth experience. She was extremely knowledgeable and was always there to help put me at ease when I had questions. She's patient, compassionate, caring, understanding and so much more. She made me feel so comfortable during labor and was there to advocate for me. I would 100% recommend her to anyone seeking a doula for both an educational and emotional support. She's the best!

When I became pregnant early in 2023, I decided to hire a doula. The experience I had during labor and delivery of my first born was less than ideal. I knew, this time I needed support. Upon my first meeting with Jennifer, I felt this was a wonderful match. We began working together during my first trimester. Jen was always there to answer my questions and help put me at ease. She visited my home numerous times. Earlier on in my pregnancy to show me exercises to help with pregnancy and labor. Then later to show my husband and I how to work through labor. All the help and support I received from Jen during my pregnancy was amazing, but not nearly as amazing as during labor and delivery. She met us at the hospital once we were admitted with her supplies in tow. She set a relaxing mood in the room with an oil diffuser and calm lighting. She massaged me and got me anything I needed. Most importantly, Jen was my advocate. She made sure I was comfortable with everything the doctors suggested doing, like administering pitocin, for example. If I needed a doctor or nurse, she made sure to find them. Her help though my labor was invaluable! I wanted to do it naturally. Without her support through the INTENSE pain, I'd have never been able to do it. She was there to take photos during delivery and helped with my daughters first latch. I recovered very well and quickly. I believe this was due to her help through an unmedicated labor and through the exercises she showed me during pregnancy. Jen's last home visit was a week after my daughter was born. She came with gifts and lactation cookies. She has continued to be a resource for me weeks later. I adore this woman and would hightly recommend to anyone considering hiring a doula.

Jennifer was absolutely amazing! From our first home session, to birth, to our postpartum visit... she was extremely helpful. She provided me with the necessary information and resources to prep myself for birth. And during birth she helped me through each contraction, assuring me that I can get through it and I did! She gave me with the upmost confidence throughout pregnancy and birth. I look forward to utilizing her services for my future pregnancies ??

Jennifer is an amazing Doula. She made the entire process of my labor a positive, beautiful experience. She is caring, kind, knowledgeable and I wish so much that I had her as my Doula for my first child. I would recommend her to any of my friends and loved ones.
