Testimonial for Vanessa Flanders
Vanessa is my daughter Emily's doula and amazing to say the least. Emily is a young first time mom and was pretty nervous about the whole birth process. Vanessa put her mind at ease and became a wonderful person to go to to ask questions and make her feel informed and safe during her pregnancy. Vanessa has a very calm and warm prensence which worked very well for Emily. Vanessa was very informed and game Emily and John alot of information to read to help decide teh best process for her delivery. She was available for Emily as she went into labor and helped her get through the beginning stages so Emily was able to stay at home for alot of it. Having someone to talk was wonderful. Vanessa met us at the hospital and was there from beginning to end. We were all very thankful to her and all her wonderful help. The nurses and doctor werevery impressed and said she was one of the best doulas they have worked with. The labor went very well and I believe Vanessa was the difference between a possilbe C section and the fact Emily was able to have her baby with very limited medical intervention. Vanessa helped with nursing as soon as the baby was born and worked with her and Emily to make sure all was going well. After two weeks the baby is still doing great with nursing. She has been a great recourse for Emily as a new mom. I would highly reccomend Vanessa to anyone. As the mom of the mom to be it was so nice and comforting to know my daughter was taken care of and her and her baby were in loving hands.
