My husband and I gave birth to our first baby in May 2014 and Margaret and Shari and Margaret (Byrne) were our doulas. We cannot express enough gratitude to these two wonderful women for all the emotional and physical support they provided for both of us.
Shari and Margaret came to our house for an inital pre-natal appointment and set us at ease immediately. They really listened to us, supported and encouraged our wishes. In the following weeks, they were always available to answer questions, or to talk about any concerns that we had. Additionally, they regularly emailed us articles with information about pregnancy, labor and delivery, breastfeeding, etc.--arming us with great information to assist in making decisions.
During our labor, Shari and Margaret knew all kinds of different comfort measures to try, suggesting them at just the right time. Furthermore, having been involved with so many births at AMC, they knew exactly what to expect from the moment we arrived at the hospital, and helped us navigate that stage of our labor. With their incredible support, we had a beautiful, memorable birth.
We highly recommend Shari. You will be lucky to have her as your doula!
