We love Paige! She was great working with us while everything was up in the air and plans changed. We were originally planning on doing a home birth, but after special circumstances forced us into the care of an OB at 37 weeks, we ended up delivering at Hoag hospital. Paige worked with us and responded quickly to my calls, texts, or emails. In fact, she was the only doula (doula-intern at the time) that called me back after leaving messages for several others!
After heading to the hospital after my water broke, I called Paige and she was at the hospital in what felt like just minutes! She was super quick! She was with us from the triage room until after my baby was born, and was very positive and supportive every step of the way. She did a great job keeping me calm and reminding me to breathe and helping me get through the tough parts! She also helped keep the nurse (who was uncomfortable with me doing a natural, un-medicated birth) from rushing me into things that I did not want and asking questions and buying me time to think about everything. She spoke the language of the nurses and explained each process in greater detail and helped me to understand the things I was unsure of.
Also, Paige acted as our photographer! She captured some amazing moments :)
We were so happy that Paige was there with us, and couldn't ask for anyone better. Thank you Paige!!
