My desire for a doula came late in my pregnancy only because I was unaware that such angles existed! I was 38 weeks when I made up my mind that a hospital birth was not for me or my baby (we delivered at home) and therefore started searching for a midwife and a doula. Emily was amazing and came to work with me immediately. She knew I was deaperate to lock down help! I'm extremely happy with my decision to work with her. She was very accommodating and just as important, she was extremely knowledgable and baby savvy. Her coaching of breastfeeding was more thorough than I ever imagined it could be. She even helped me with little things like changing diapers, working breast pumps, and collapsing strollers! During the birth she was invaluable. My water broke at 5pm and we called her around 1am for support. She was there in no time providing non stop care for me and my husband. Her suggestion of getting in the shower proved very successful for me as I made considerable progress in my labor. Throughout the entire process she was attentive, supportive, confident, helpful and overall outstanding. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for a doula and I will most certainly be using her for my second pregnancy.
