Testimonial for Aubrey Tambellini CD(DONA), CLC
My husband and I are extremely glad we hired a doula for our first pregnancy and feel so lucky we were matched with Aubrey! From the very beginning, Aubrey was approachable and kind as she guided us through all our questions and concerns. She was very easy to contact and checked in on us after all of our doctor appointments. She has a ton of tools to help you develop your birth plan, which made me feel so comfortable going into labor. Once labor started, Aubrey took no time to make our delivery room calm and serene by bringing her own fairy lights and electric candles and even brought a portable fan that she attached to the hospital bed to ensure I was comfortable. My labor did not go exactly to plan, which made Aubrey and even bigger asset. She was able to break down all the options the doctors gave me so I could understand and make an informed decision, knew a ton of birthing positions that we tried to help our son come vaginally, and worked alongside the hospital nurses through the whole process. I inevitably needed a c-section so she couldn't be with us, but thanks to Aubrey, we went into the c-section knowing we tried everything we could to have him come vaginally. Postpartum, Aubrey still feels like an invaluable part of our team. She still checks in, provides resources and has helped me immensely through my breast feeding journey. If you are on the fence about hiring a doula, I hope that my experience can convince you to seriously consider it. The knowledge, confidence and support I received, especially as a first time mother, made the whole experience so much less stressful and scary. I could not recommended Aubrey enough and hope you strongly consider adding her to your birth team!
