Testimonial for Melissa M. Imperato CD(DONA)
As a person fairly new to the NY area, I didn't have the luxury of getting doula recommendations from friends. This meant my husband and I were scouring the internet, which can be a very scary prospect. Melissa set us at ease after our first meeting. From the moment we met her, we could tell that she was sincerely concerned with us having the best birth experience possible. We were looking for someone to assist us in having a VBAC (which we did!!!). Throughout the whole process, she was completely supportive and was willing to learn about our family and cultural needs. She was able to help us develop our birth plan, and prepared us for the unexpected. She is passionate, caring, and knowledgeable. She was a sensitive ear who was completely positive and reassuring when complications arose in our third trimester. Overall, I don't think there could be a better Doula out there. She has truly found her calling and is a selfless individual. You would be very lucky to have her on your birthing team.
