My husband and I loved our experience with Britt. We interviewed 4 doulas and we were confident in each one's ability as a doula so we decided to choose the one we felt most comfortable with, and that was Britt. Our decision paid off because you definitely need someone you can trust and be yourself around during labor. We spent 12 very intense hours together during which she kept both of us calm and happy, helped us advocate for ourselves, answered our questions, and anticipated our needs. It was basically like having your best friend there with you if your best friend was a birth expert. She was respectful of our wishes throughout the process and helped us have the best experience possible. She also was very helpful afterward answering questions and sharing contacts when we were struggling with breastfeeding and general new baby craziness. Perhaps most importantly, I never felt judged by Britt in any of my birth decisions or my decisions afterward. I feel that having a knowledgeable nonjudgmental person on your side is really important as a new mom. It's something that I had no idea would be so important before I gave birth.
We will be definitely be calling Britt again if we have a second child!
