Testimonial for Dominique Spagnola, CLC
I don’t even know where to begin when it comes to sharing how much Dom meant to me during my birth experience. I was in a situation that felt incredibly isolating—none of my family were able to be at the hospital with me, and as my due date approached, I was filled with anxiety and fear about doing it alone. But then came Dom. From the moment we connected, she brought a sense of peace, strength, and warmth that I didn’t know I needed. She didn’t just show up—she stood in, like family.
Dom supported me in ways that went far beyond what I imagined a doula could do. She answered every question with patience and care, gave me evidence-based resources when I was overwhelmed by decisions, and always made me feel heard and respected. Her presence never felt clinical or transactional—she was emotionally invested, genuinely kind, and always attuned to what I needed in each moment.
During labor, Dom was everything: my advocate, my grounding force, my comfort, my strength. She held my hand when I was scared, reminded me of my power when I forgot, and stayed by my side through it all with unwavering support. She helped me believe I could do this—even when it all felt impossible. And because of her, I didn’t just make it through my birth—I did it feeling empowered, supported, and deeply cared for.
Dom helped me bring the most beautiful boy into the world, and she did it with love, grace, and strength that I’ll never forget. I truly can’t imagine this experience without her. If you are lucky enough to have Dom by your side, know that you will be held in the most compassionate and capable hands. She changed my life, and I will forever be grateful.
