Testimonial for Kim Turton Palmatary
We got a recommendation for Kim from an aquitance and we contacted her to be our doula for our twin pregancy. When we contacted Kim she immediately left an impression of someone who is quite welcoming, but also very knowledgeable. She arrived to our house a few days after our initial phone conversation and had brought a lot of useful material and information for us to learn and read about. Throughout our last few months of pregnancy, Kim was initiating conversation about how we can prepare ourselves for what could happen in the delivery room, and how to get ready for the delivery. She had helped us with the birth plan and gave us a lot information about the hospital and what we can expect when we get there.
At birth, Kim was very helpful to both me and my husband. I was induced at 38w1d, and Kim was with us from the time i got into the hospital thru next 24 hours of labour and delivery. My pregnancy was relatively easy and, as they called it in the hosptialy pretty uneventful, but at the delivery, my second placenta bursted and I've lost a lot of blood in avery short timeframe. At that point Kim was extremely supportive to me and my husband and kept us sane thru the crises. She stayed with us few hours after the delivery to make sure that I"m OK, and then followed up several time with us in the next few weeks to help with breastfeeding and to ensure that babies and I are doing well.
Overall we've really enjoyed having Kim as our doula. She was very supportive, knowledgeable, and most of all she knew how to be close to us. Thank you Kim for all you've done for us. We really appreciate it.
