Testimonial for Kaylen Ardiles-Cervera (CD, DONA)
My experience with Kaylen was even better than I could have imagined. I'm grateful to have had her as a doula for my labor journey.
I had researched and interviewed with several doulas and during my call with Kaylen I instantly felt she was the right fit. Kaylen is knowledgeable and can educate in an easy to understand way. Her calming energy is evident even virtually.
She had been the support I needed throughout the process. She was there to keep me calm and help me through the pain of the contractions. I never imagined being 7cm dilated without an epidural. She also was able to navigate the difficult personality of my own mother (who kept insisting I not get the epidural because I should push through the pain like she did). That is something I didn't expect would be so valuable. To do that, while supporting me through contractions and give peace of mind to my husband was so needed during my birthing journey.
Through the emotional stress and physical pain, I felt motivated and calm knowing she was looking out for me, my baby and my husband.
Beyond the labor, she was also super helpful in postpartum. Her lactation guidance made a difference for me as a first time mom.
My husband and I felt we were in very capable and confident hands with Kaylen. While this is Kaylen's profession it feels more of like her passion.
Should my husband and I have more children, Kaylen will definitely be hired again.
I truly feel anyone she works with will be as grateful and happy with the experience as my husband and myself.
