Testimonial for Isabel Flanders
Isabel will always be an important part of our birth and newborn/infancy story, and I’m very grateful. We initially were only going to hire a postpartum doula, but after meeting Isabel we realized we wanted her at our birth as well, and I’m so glad for it. She helped us create a detailed, evidence-based birth plan, and when the time came she was present, engaged and helpful throughout a long hospital labor. She made sure we were informed and felt empowered to advocate for ourselves, kept sight of our birth plan, captured special photos and even remembered details of my labor and delivery after the fact that I had forgotten. She was also a lifeline during a very difficult postpartum for me, offering her newborn and infant care expertise and practical help around the house, making sure I ate and rested, connecting me to other care providers and resources through her professional network, and just generally supporting and encouraging us as overwhelmed first time parents. Isabel has a wonderfully calm and gentle energy which was just what both baby and I needed, and her presence in our home and with our family felt natural and comforting. We are so lucky to have her in our family’s life, and I can’t recommend her enough.
