Testimonial for Syllona Kanu
We were fortunate to find Syllona during the final weeks of my pregnancy. As multi-ethnic, first time queer parents, it was important for us to find a doula that we would feel comfortable during this exciting and precious journey. From our very first online meeting, Syllona’s calm demeanour and approachable nature made us feel confident that she was the right choice for us. Despite her packed September schedule, Syllona graciously accepted us as clients.
Throughout my labour, Syllona’s unwavering support was an immense comfort and reassurance. She seemed to anticipate my needs before I even expressed them. In the toughest moments, her grounding voice gave me courage, strength and direction to manage unexpected labour pains. Her experience and intuition were evident as she was always there with the right tools to assist me during labour. Her coaching during the pushing phase was incredibly helpful, providing me with a rhythm and ease that made a world of difference.
Syllona was equally invaluable to my partner, helping navigate hospital logistics, offering support/guidance on how to support me, and ensuring her well-being during my intense and rapid active labour.
We are incredibly grateful for Syllona’s support during and after labour. Her personable, caring, and inclusive nature made our birth experience a positive and memorable one. We wholeheartedly recommend Syllona to any expecting parents looking for a compassionate and knowledgeable doula.
