Testimonial for Halie Comeau
Working with Halie was one of the greatest gifts of our birthing experience. As we prepared for the birth of our daughter, from the moment we hopped on a call with Halie, I was put at ease. During the call, I remember tearing up hearing her talk about the experience of birth and her supportive role in pregnancy and birth. Her philosophy of birth and emphasis on the sacredness of it all helped calm me and put hope in my heart for a beautiful birth experience (which we had!). Throughout pregnancy, Halie was invaluable. She visited our home to provide education and resources, maintained regular check-ins, and was a sounding board for pregnancy concerns. When I was convinced our daughter would arrive early (she actually came 10 days late), Halie's patience was unwavering. She helped calm my anxieties and encouraged us to embrace the natural timing. On the day of birth, Halie created a serene and sacred atmosphere in our home. She guided me through contractions, supported my husband, prepared tea, tidied our space, and accompanied us on neighborhood walks to progress my labor. My prayer for our birth experience was that we would sense the Lord's presence, and by the Lord's grace, we felt it embodied through Halie's physical and emotional support. At the hospital, she waited with us through a very long labor and a prolonged pushing phase, She advocated for my birth preferences, helped me move through contractions, cultivated a peaceful environment amid the clinical setting, and supported my husband. When Halie left after my daughter was born, we were so sad to say goodbye. We are convinced doula work is holy work, and we can't imagine doing this without her.
