When I called Chris I was on the brink of quiting. My preemie was having issues latching and honestly I was tired and frustrated. Bottle feeding was easier for us but I had always pictured myself as a breastfeeding mom, it just wasn’t something I thought would be so hard. Chris was so reassuring when I called her. I could tell she was really listening to me and didn’t feel rushed at all. I also knew that if the appointments didn’t work out that she wouldn’t judge me for stopping. Chris came into my home like a ray of light and climbed right up onto my bed and showed me how to breastfeed side laying. She held my son close to me as I got situated and didn’t get flustered, even though he was crying and I was flustered. She taught me how to be comfortable and how to position him in a way that he was too. Nursing is now my favorite part of the day . I learned so much through my time with Chris and I look forward to her being my doula for baby number two. I’m so happy we didn’t quit, thank you Chris.

Christine was extremely professional while still remaining caring and personable. She made me feel like I had a choice in every decision and let me know the pros and cons of every option. I will choose her every time! She was amazing and made me feel so safe and cared for.
