Testimonial for Christine Goldman Redmond
Christine Goldman is the most amazing doula. I have had her for 3 of my births and she will be there for my 4t child due in January. It is so great having her especially at the end of pregnancy when you are unsure what is going on with your body. She has always been so supportive and reassuring on so many levels. During my 3 pregnancy, I broke my elbow and had Chris come several times a week for doula help...to help with me and my 2 children. It was so comforting having her there and really helpful. She would play with the kids or do light house cleaning. Also it was just so great to have someone to talk to about my fears or the questions I had.
At births, her presence is so calming. She can tell exactly where you are and what you need. She doesn't overteact and just is there for you. She helps you through the various stages of labor by having you get in the tub, rock on a yoga ball or just walking. She will rub your back and so anything to make you feel comfortable. When the time is right, she will let you know when you should go to the hospital. At the hospital, she is a complete advocate for you. She does the speaking up to the nurses and Dr.'s. When you are in labor, you should'n't have to waste your energy trying to get what you want. Chris takes care of everything while you concentrate on laboring.
I just can't say enough about Chris Goldman. Her services are priceless and worth every single penny!
