Testimonial for Susan Rotman, AAHCC, CD(DONA)
We were going to be first-time parents and and we had started looking for someone who offered the Bradley course plus the doula service. That’s how we came across Susan Rotman.
The first thing that impressed us about Susan was that she was very prompt in replying to our questions via email/phone. We met her for the first time in the Bradley class. We liked her personality, her confidence in the Bradley method and her passion in her teachings. She made us feel confident and secure about choosing her to be our doula.
Through the pregnancy, we had many questions and we approached her with those questions, by phone/email and we got satisfactory answers to those right away. The tips and recommendations from her helped my wife stay in low-risk pregnancy throughout.
And then came the day when we had to leave for the hospital. As my wife labored through the night, Susan was also up through the night, constantly keeping in touch with us via phone calls and text messages. When the time was right, we left for the hospital and Susan met us at the hospital. Unfortunately we had to return home as the dilation was not enough.
The next night also, my wife labored through the early stage of labor. Susan continued with her constant support through the night. The same day we had to leave for the hospital early in the morning at 6. This time, we got admitted and Susan met us once again at the hospital.
Susan and I made a great team in helping my wife labor through the early stage of labor, giving her massages, comforting her by vocal coaching and tools (inside joke: the squeaky) for back massage. We couldn’t have gone through that labor without her.
Her experience showed in the fluidity with which she dealt with the hospital staff. We totally give her all the credit for our amazing birthing experience. We would highly recommend anyone to have Susan as their doula; you couldn’t go wrong with that decision.
