Testimonial for Sherrica Blackmon
I truly don’t think I have enough words to describe how incredible Sherrica is. With my first baby, I had a wonderful doula who set the bar so high, and when she stepped away from doula work I was honestly heartbroken. I was scared I wouldn’t find anyone who could come close. Then I was referred to Sherrica… and wow. She didn’t just meet my expectations, she brought her own unique gift into my birth and exceeded anything I could have hoped for.
From the moment she stepped into my birth space, she became the calm in the chaos. Her voice was the only one I could hear through the intensity of labor. When I felt like I was dying and wanted to quit, her steady, gentle guidance kept me grounded. I remember thinking, “If she’s not panicking, maybe I don’t need to either.”
She supported me emotionally, physically, and mentally every step of the way. She read the room perfectly; firm when I needed a push, soft when I needed compassion. Even when I was internally cursing her for having me curb walk or sit backwards on the toilet, I knew she was doing exactly what my body needed.
My family was present during my home birth, and she managed the energy so beautifully. She kept the focus on me, protected my space, and somehow made an extremely painful experience just a little less painful with her presence alone.
Sherrica is warm, relatable, patient, and so incredibly human in the best way. She sees you, she hears you, and she supports you in a way that feels both professional and deeply personal. If you’re even thinking about hiring her, do it. You will not regret it. I’m so grateful she was part of my birth story.
