Testimonial for Kimberly Sebeck

It's going to sound a bit cheesy, but I was drawn to Kim from the first time I met her. Heavily pregnant and standing in the forever line at our local mass consignment event, she made eye contact with me & my partner. She approached us with a warm smile and some information about doulas. I liked her energy, her enthusiasm, and her knowledge but most important to me at the time- her bluntness. Honesty is hot. I know this sounds like I was planning on dating her. The way I see it if I'm going to be at least half naked throughout most of the birth, and she will be there through the grunts/moans/groans that I will inevitably make. She's going to see me naked. She will be whispering words of encouragement while massaging my naked body. Having a baby is intimate. And relying on someone I already feel I have an instant intimate connection with was important to me. I ended up not hiring a doula at all for that birth, but immediately after having my all natural waterbirth I knew I wanted one. And I knew it would be Kim I hired. I'm so glad I did. She was serious and focused, but never lit's her sense of humor. She empowered my partner to be as involved as he could be in assisting me through labor. She included my daughters in comforting me through my labor. that was so important to me as I wanted them to witness a natural birth surrounded by love and support.  She embodied the patient teacher, the nurturing mother, the centered friend, the reminder of self confidence, and the literal voice of reason. I would hire her again in a heartbeat...
