Testimonial for Tara Reid
I have used Tara for two of my three births. And I would highly recommend her and have friends who ended up hiring her. My first labor and birth was not how I wanted. I struggled for a long time over that birth and knew I wanted to hire a doula for my second pregnancy. After meeting with Tara, my husband and I knew she was the one for us. We wanted someone who would help us achieve our perfect birth experience. Unfortunately, my daughter's birth was so fast she was born at home. When we arrived at the hospital, Tara was there. And we were so grateful to have her. The hosiptal was really critical of our accidental home birth. We were under fire a lot. Thankfully Tara was our body guard. She helped protect me. She also helped me better understand why the hospital was requiring or recommending procedures that I was unfamiliar with. As for the third birth, I finally got the birth experience I so desperately wanted. And that was all because of Tara. I didn't believe I was in labor but because of Tara's experience she knew I was. She made my labor area calm and peaceful. And when my husband rested, she took over with counter pressure. Having Tara there really put me at ease because I knew I was in good hands with her and my husband. So when I delivered before my midwife arrived I did not worry because I knew Tara has the knowledge to help in case of emergency.
I have called, texted, and emailed Tara countless times for all sorts of questions and advice. She has such a wide knowledge of pregnancy, birth, postpartum, infant, and child care that I always go to her first. She is always available and is always willing to help. My husband and I already know that if we are blessed with any more children, we will be hiring Tara every time.
