Testimonial for Lisa Desjarlais

I highly recommend Elisa to anyone who wants to feel incredibly supported and cared for in their parental, birth, and postnatal journey. She is very knowledgeable and caring, and I always felt heard and safe with her. She answered any questions I had while I was pregnant, and helped my husband understand his role during my labour and birth, but not in a bossy way, she just helped him know how to help me. She was by my side through my whole 2 day labour and birth, encouraging me and advocating for me by making sure my voice and desires were heard by the nurses and doctors. She helped me find positions that were more comfortable, massaged my back, and encouraged me. She even had twinkle lights and my favourite playlist on. She helped clean up the birth room while I showered and went and got me a PIZZA after my birth so my husband and I could have some privacy with our daughter. She really goes above and beyond. Her postnatal visits were much needed, and she literally offered to do anything I needed: she brought me lactation cookies and popsicles, let me take naps, listened to me vent and cry, and cleaned my house. 10/10 experience!
