Testimonial for Giulia Salles
I still get emotional when I think about the day my daughter was born. It was a moment of immense joy, but also full of insecurities, fears, and uncertainties. And in the middle of it all, having Giulia, our doula, by our side was one of the greatest gifts we could have received.
From our prenatal meetings, she already made a big difference. She patiently and kindly taught us how to hold our newborn, how to bathe her… My husband was very nervous about handling a tiny baby, and after that session, he felt so much more confident — all thanks to her calm guidance.
Although my original plan was to have a vaginal birth, I ended up needing a scheduled c-section due to the baby’s position. Even so, Giulia’s presence was essential. I was really nervous at the beginning of the surgery, and she was absolutely wonderful — calming me down, helping me feel safe, and staying right by my side in the OR the entire time.
Having a Brazilian doula who could speak my language and truly understand me made all the difference. In such a vulnerable and emotional moment, being able to express myself freely and feel understood without needing to explain too much was deeply comforting. It felt like having a close friend there — someone who just got me.
Giulia was more than just a doula. She was warmth. She was strength. She was presence. And in such a transformative moment in life, that means everything.
I am forever grateful for the care and love she gave us. I wholeheartedly recommend her — every woman deserves to experience birth with this kind of support, respect, and compassion.
