Testimonial for Michelle Finch, CLD(DSC), PD, LCCE

I was initially on the fence about hiring a doula, but I am so incredibly thankful that I did. Michelle and her doula partner, Heather were incredible! It was very reassuring to know that one of them would always be available, with the other as backup, since timing around delivery can be so unpredictable. They struck the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine care. I always felt heard, supported, and understood throughout the entire experience.

Michelle was the one present for my delivery, and she was absolutely amazing. I truly don’t think I would have had a vaginal delivery without her! She provided calm, steady guidance, suggested different positions, and even helped my husband feel more confident in supporting me.

We had also hoped to capture some moments from the birth, and Michelle took the most incredible photos! It also allowed us to stay fully present without worrying about documenting everything ourselves.

We also had Michelle provide overnight postpartum support, and it was so amazing! As a tired new mom, having someone we trusted to care for our baby was invaluable. She was always punctual, wonderful with our baby, and incredibly knowledgeable! She supported me with breastfeeding overnight and shared helpful tips on newborn care that were especially valuable as a first-time mom. She also seemed to have a magic touch when it came to getting the baby to sleep! Honestly, I appreciated having someone to talk to during those 3 a.m. feeds as well! Her presence was so comforting and reassuring—it helped ease a lot of first-time mom anxiety and made me feel more confident that we were doing a good job.

I felt I didn’t just get two wonderful doulas to work with but created amazing friends in the process! I would 100% recommend Michelle and Heather to anyone considering doula support, whether for delivery, postpartum care, or breastfeeding guidance.
