Testimonial for Emily Daddario
It’s hard to put into words everything Emily has done for me.
In my first birth, I did not have a doula and it was a very difficult delivery and recovery. In hindsight, I wished a had a doula for support. That experience taught me a wanted and needed a doula for future deliveries.
Emily was with me for the birth of second and third child. Emily served as a bereavement doula during my second birth, but despite the circumstances, Emily made my experience beautiful and she was the support I needed during such difficult circumstances. I am healing from our loss so well because of her support. She helped hold my hand during the biggest trauma of my life, labor with me in the shower, and took pictures of the daughter we lost (which I cherish to this day).
Emily continued to serve as support through finding out I was pregnant with my third child. She helped me develop a delivery plan that aligned with my goals. She also offered pregnancy support such as stretches and exercises as well as suggesting I see other support services such as a physical therapist and chiropractor. When I struggled with prodromal labor she was a sounding board to get me through. I felt so prepared for birth with Emily’s help. When I went into labor, I labored at home with her suggestions and eventually got to the hospital ready to push baby out. I was so prepared that I had an unmedicated delivery. I was so proud of myself and so happy with my redemptive birth. I know that was possible because of Emily.
I recommend Emily to anyone wanting support during pregnancy and delivery. She is extremely knowledgeable and honors her clients goals and wishes.
