Malissa is a fantastic doula. If you want a dedicated doula who will not leave your side no matter how LONG or short your labor may be...then go with Malissa. I couldn't have been more happy with her. I had a very long, hard, and trying labor and Malissa was with me every step of the way. She is a great support to the mom in labor but also to the dad... Giving them breaks to rest, get food etc...In my 18 hours of active labor I didn't see Malissa go to the bathroom once. She stayed with me the entire time and helped me get through the most difficult, yet rewarding, day of my life. I couldn't have been more pleased with her. I had chosen the hypnobirthing method for my labor and Malissa helped me focus on breathing properly and staying calm and relaxed. I also had taken her hypnobirthing class where I learned a lot about my body, labor, and it really helped me prepare for the birth. Malissa also visited me twice before and after the delivery. I cannot rave enough about her! Go with Malissa if you need a doula!
