Testimonial for Shannon Mathews CD(DONA), CVD (TVL)
I cannot say enough about how wonderful and personable Shannon is, and how lucky we were to have her as our doula.
From our initial visit, she knew that I really wanted to have as natural of a labor and birth as possible, and knowing this she gave me invaluable advice that resulted in me deciding to switch OBs. The OB group she recommended was fantastic, and I felt much more supported and empowered in my birth plan.
Shannon was endlessly supportive of my needs and wants, and always made sure I was adequately educated on my options. With her wealth of knowledge and resources, she ensured I was both mentally and physically prepared for our little girl's birth.
She has a calming, confident presence that was exactly what I needed. I was able to effectively use breathwork and position changes to progress through my labor, and ended up giving birth without an epidural. I honestly do not think I could have done it without Shannon.
I truly consider Shannon a friend for life, and if I ever have a second baby, I will not hesitate to use her again.
