Testimonial for Rae Thweatt | they/she
My experience with Rae as my birth doula and postpartum doula was amazing! Rae attended my birth and was there for me through it all, start to finish. Rae regularly checked on me throughout pregnancy and stayed in touch as I navigated many prenatal appointments, always checking in, staying up to date with me, offering a caring and thoughtful approach throughout. When labor started, my partner stayed in touch with Rae with progress updates. Rae was available immediately and arrived to support me through early and active labor as soon as we asked, and went to the hospital with us for continued support. Rae’s presence throughout my labor was so reassuring, gentle and strong, and they offered words of encouragement and affirmations, supportive touch, and took care to offer hydration, nutrition and relaxation techniques. I truly felt like Rae was there for me and my partner, and was so kind and validating of each of our experiences. Our baby was born in the early hours after nearly 25 hours total, and Rae was sure to stay with us through baby bonding “golden hour” and even returned later for a check in.
Once we settled back home, Rae continued on as our postpartum support. It was wonderful to have additional support during the tender new weeks as a brand new parent, following birth. Rae helped provide encouragement during a challenging breast-feeding journey and was especially helpful with newborn care so that I could tend to my personal needs for a better healing. I absolutely recommend Rae as a birth and postpartum doula.
