Testimonial for Christine Scarlett, RN, BSN, PCD(DONA), PPA, CBD, CLC, CEIM
We had such a wonderful experience working with Christine, and I truly don’t think we would have accomplished the birth we wanted without her!
From the beginning, I knew I wanted a natural birth, but I was very nervous that I wouldn’t be able to do it. Her experience, especially having had several VBACs herself, was so encouraging and helped me feel confident that my body was capable. She prepared us so well with classes, workbooks, and resources, which made me feel much less anxious going into labor.
One of the things I appreciated most was how knowledgeable she was about pregnancy and birth while always allowing us to make our own decisions. She would share the facts and sometimes her opinion, but never in a biased or pushy way. She respected our values and made me feel empowered and confident in our choices. Having a Christian doula was also very important to us, and it meant so much to have someone whose values aligned with ours.
My labor ended up being 31 hours, and she was incredibly calm, level-headed, and reassuring throughout. Around 25 hours in, I was questioning everything and asked if I should go to the hospital for an epidural. She gently reminded me of my goals, reassured me that I was safe, and encouraged me to keep going. She helped us feel confident that everything was normal and healthy, allowing us to stay home until we were ready. We arrived at the hospital fully dilated and ready to push!
She was also an amazing support for my husband. When he needed to eat or use the bathroom, she stepped in without hesitation and supported me through contractions.
Even postpartum, she continued checking in and genuinely cared about how I was doing. Breastfeeding unfortunately did not go well for me, but she continued reaching out and asking how she could help.
She is calm, knowledgeable, trustworthy, and compassionate. We are so grateful we chose her and would recommend her!
