Testimonial for Cheryl Singletary
I met Cheryl Singletary in 2008 when I was pregnant with my first child. At the time, she worked at a local daycare and I was looking for support after the birth. We spent a few months getting to know each other, and when it was time for me to deliver, Cheryl stepped in like no one else could have.
After my son was born, I faced unexpected heart complications that led to heart failure. I had to remain in the hospital for two weeks, while my newborn was discharged. Cheryl, only 22 at the time, stayed in my home and cared for my newborn around the clock. She even traveled back and forth to the hospital to bring my breast milk to my baby. Her selflessness, dedication, and compassion during that time changed my life forever. My family is indebted to her in a way words can barely express.
Now, 16 years later, Cheryl and my oldest son are as close as ever. She also supported me through the birth of my second child, offering comfort, massaging my hands, feet, and back, and guiding me with the calm strength of someone born to do this work. That son is now 14, and we often say: Cheryl has always been a doula — long before she even knew what one was.
She’s not just a friend of the family. She is family. Her care, love, and natural ability to show up in people’s most vulnerable moments is a rare and beautiful gift that I would forever cherish.
