Testimonial for Christie Williams
Christie is an incredible doula. My husband and I originally took Bradley Method classes with her - not initially planning to hire a doula, but it quickly became clear that her experience and calm wisdom would be invaluable during labor. As educators, we joked it was like having the teacher take the final exam with us. But that comparison falls short, because what we found in Christie was far more personal and profound.
From the start, Christie was warm, grounded, and present. She visited us at home ahead of our due date, helping us plan through different birth scenarios and making us feel at ease. She was also instrumental in helping us write and review our birth plan. We were especially touched to learn she shared our faith-based values and would be praying for us through our son’s arrival.
Throughout pregnancy, Christie was always accessible - ready with a listening ear, trusted insight, and helpful resources. When labor began, she arrived at our home with a quiet, confident energy that helped me stay grounded and labor at home as long as possible, allowing both my husband and I to rest before heading to the hospital.
In labor, she offered counterpressure, words of affirmation, and suggestions for different laboring positions - everything before we even thought to ask. She supported my husband and me in laboring together, just as we’d hoped. And at the hospital, I knew we had an advocate in the room with us - someone who could help us navigate the unknowns while honoring our choices. I felt truly seen, safe, and supported in every moment.
After the birth, my OB said she’s worked with many doulas, but Christie was phenomenal. We couldn’t agree more. We truly couldn’t have done it without her. To say everyone needs a doula wouldn’t be quite right - instead, we believe everyone needs a Christie.
