Hiring Angela at Inspire Doula Servies as my birth doula was THE best decision I made in preparation for welcoming my baby unmedicated. Whether unmediated is your goal or not, Angela advocates for/supports whatever birth you are working towards. I interviewed 10 other doulas before selecting Angela, and here’s why she stood out as the best:
Professionalism: In a very unregulated field, Angela had the most experience-8+years as a full-time doula and 400+ births under her belt. In addition to being a certified lactation consultant, she is a birth educator. She was familiar with my office’s practice, hospital’s policies, and worked seamlessly alongside the staff. They made an amazing team!
Presence & Personality: Angela is that she was made for this field-warm, calm, thorough, yet tough, not afraid to advocate for your wishes, and would ensure you have the info you need to make educated decisions.
Our experience: The combination of her wisdom, professionalism and calming presence was the lighthouse in the storm that is labor. With my feedback, Angela was the strategy behind what positions and pain management was executed to helped move our baby out efficiently and safely. I was never afraid during labor and the pain was manageable thanks to my husband and Angela.
Husband’s perspective: “Going into the birth process I wasn’t sure if a doula was worth the investment. Angela was worth every penny! She was all hands-on deck the entire time. Guiding us from when her water broke to analyzing contraction patterns and helping decipher when to head to the hospital. Once there, she and I worked together easily. In such a wild process, she was especially helpful in reassuring us what was “normal”. This was comforting for both me and my wife.”
I would love nothing more than to have Angela at my next birth. Angela always holds a special place in my heart!
