Testimonial for Monsurat Rahman

Having Monsurat as my doula was one of the best decisions I made during my pregnancy. She supported me exceptionally well before delivery, throughout my birth journey, and during my postpartum recovery.

I went into this pregnancy hoping for a VBAC, as I had never experienced a vaginal delivery before. Monsurat was incredibly helpful in preparing me for this. She educated me about how vaginal labour and delivery work, what to expect during the different stages of labour, and how to prepare both physically and mentally. Although I ultimately did not experience a vaginal delivery, as I did not go into labour before my scheduled C-section, the knowledge and preparation she gave me have given me a much better understanding of vaginal birth and what to expect.

When my birth plan changed and I had my C-section, Monsurat continued to support me without making me feel disappointed about the change.

What truly stood out to me, however, was her postpartum care. Her support after delivery was absolutely top-notch. Recovering from a C-section while caring for a newborn and a toddler can be challenging, but Monsurat made the transition much easier. She provided practical and emotional support and was always so caring, patient, and reassuring.

She also went above and beyond in supporting my toddler son. He absolutely loved her and was always asking about her! Seeing how comfortable and happy he was around her meant so much to me. She didn’t just support me; she supported our family.

Monsurat was compassionate, knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely caring throughout the entire experience. She made me feel supported and understood, and her care extended well beyond what I expected from a doula.

I am truly grateful that Monsurat was part of my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any mother looking for a doula. She is absolutely amazing!
