After interviewing quite a few doulas, I chose Elyse because she offers the best of both worlds - she is incredibly knowledgeable about birth with tons of evidence-based research under her belt, and she is also so warm and kind. Those attributes made her invaluable to me during my birth experience, making it a fond memory rather than a scary one. As someone with past medical trauma, I can’t even imagine giving birth without Elyse by my side. She helped me navigate countless medical choices and also helped me feel confident both prior to and during birth, which was so important to me as a nervous first time mom. Plus, she was always very generous with her time, as well as instantly available via phone or text throughout my pregnancy. Without Elyse, there is no way I would have had the successful birth that I had.
