Testimonial for Scarlett Lynsky
My husband and I decided to hire a doula for the birth of our first child. We are not from the USA so don't have family here and the birth process is pretty different to the UK so we felt we would benefit from a doula.
Scarlett was the first and only doula we met. We liked her straight away. She has a great warmth to her and also has a good sense of humor. Something important to both of us (she even got my husbands sense if humor which was a bonus!)
We also chose to attend Scarlett's childbirth education classes which were a great help and also enabled us to get to know her even more. She was always open minded and encouraged us to be the same. We were hoping for a natural water birth but she always made sure we understood fully other options. This ended up being very helpful as after the natural water birth (and pushing for 2 hours) we ended up having to have an emergency c section. Scarlett's wonderful education before the birth meant I wasn't terrified when it had to happen.
we loved our time with Scarlett, before, during and after the birth of our wonderful daughter Lily. During labor Scarlett was a huge support to both me and my husband. I naturally leant on both of them a lot during a very painful labor, whether it was massage, water or words of encouragement. Scarlett even stayed in hospital until we came back from the recovery room, just to quickly check how I was and meet Lily.
I would not hesitate tor recommend Scarlett. She is wonderful!
