As someone who has always been scared of childbirth, I was looking to hire a doula to provide emotional support and strategies to cope with the pain of labor. Enza absolutely fit the bill on both counts. Having accompanied hundreds of pregnant people through births over her career, Enza brings extensive knowledge and deep wisdom to her work. She is well known and beloved within the medical community, especially at Beverly Hospital where we gave birth. Anytime we mentioned Enza to a midwife, nurse, lactation consultant, etc., folks responded with a warm smile and kind words to share about their experience with Enza. Having a care team you can trust (and who trusts each other) makes a world of difference, and Enza is a natural community builder and liaison who is skilled at communicating with medical professionals to best advocate for you.
I went into labor with the hope of having an unmedicated vaginal birth with no tearing, and thanks to Enza and our team, we were able to fully achieve my birth vision!
Not only did Enza guide us through a challenging experience, but she also made it fun! When our midwife recommended doing exercises along the hospital’s walking path, Enza jumped right in alongside me (followed by my midwife, husband, and mother) and we laughed our way through the early stages of labor, having an absolute ball!
Thanks to Enza I no longer fear childbirth, and instead, consider the experience an empowering reminder that I am stronger and more capable than I ever knew. Enza is an absolute joy to work with, and we highly recommend her to anyone seeking expert doula care on the North Shore.
