Carleigh was my doula for 3 of my children's births. 

I was pregnant after multiple losses( twins lost at 22 weeks and then 3 miscarriages) so I was extremely anxious and had PTSD from the birth of my twins. I wanted extra support for the birth of my rainbow baby and I can honestly say that I don't know how I would have gotten through her birth without her there. 

At the meetings before the birth she went through every single thing that could happen during birth, she took note of all the choices I would want during birth and answered all my many questions I had. My first experience giving birth was so incredibly different from what would happen when you get to see and hear you baby cry and live that I truly didn't know all the things that happen in a "regular" birth. 

During the birth she was so supportive of me and my husband. She helped me in every way she could and I feel like I used her support more than my husbands because she is such an experienced doula who knows what to do and how to do it. I felt like she was just as happy as my husband and I when my daughter was born. 

She is such a calming, grounded, loving, caring and supportive doula. I knew I needed her support again for the birth of my 2 sons. We are done having kids now but if we weren't we would definitely use her again.
