As first time parents, we were extremely grateful to have Kim with us through the labour and delivery of our daughter. Knowing that Kim had been through so many births ahead of time, and seeing how she interacted with the hospital staff, so many of whom knew and respected her, and vice versa, gave us tremendous confidence in the advice she gave and as decisions needed to be made by us throughout the process. Kim's presence was solid but not invasive, always there with a steady hand or calming word to push us though to the next stage. She also took a fabulous set of pictures from the early stages here at home though to the actual birth, all tasteful and skilled images that were a great surprise to see after the fact and which remind us of that crazy and beautiful day. We would not hesitate to recommend Kim to others considering hiring a doula, or to having her back with us should we head down the path to parenthood again. She was fantastic and grounding to both of us though the biirth of our daughter and we have difficulty imagining the experience without her in the room.
