Testimonial for Helene Alvarez
Helene was an absolute blessing during our birth journey!
From our first meeting, Helene made us feel supported and empowered. Her warmth and expertise gave us confidence for one of life's most important days.
What set Helene apart was her unwavering commitment to our birth plan. She advocated for us with incredible strength, ensuring nurses and doctors respected our wishes while maintaining excellent relationships with the medical team—firm when necessary, but always respectful.
Throughout labor, Helene constantly checked in, asking if we wanted to proceed as planned or adjust our approach. She never assumed—always confirming our preferences before each decision. This gave us complete control, even during intense moments when we needed clarity.
Her support was truly 24/7. Before birth, she provided invaluable preparation tips. During labor, she never left our side. After delivery, she continued checking on us.
One of the most meaningful aspects was her spiritual support. She prayed with us throughout, bringing peace during uncertain moments.
Helene didn't just attend our birth—she walked alongside us with compassion, strength, and dedication. If you want a doula who will fiercely protect your wishes and bring both expertise and heart, Helene is extraordinary.
