Testimonial for Rose Quintilian
Rose was our Hypnobabies class instructor, so we felt comfortable asking her to join the birth of both of our sons as our doula. Rose has a very calming, supportive presence and I (we both) felt very comfortable sharing these very intimate and private moments with her. She provided a tremendous amount of support before, throughout and even post birth.
Prior to the birth, Rose came to our home to learn more about our birth plan, our unique needs and to discuss how she can best support us throughout. During the birthing time, she spent hours supporting me to use hypnobabies techniques at home, making it possible to minimize our time in the hospital and helped us transition to the hospital and continue to support us (while hospital staff was providing medical attention) having a natural, medication free and unnecessary intervention-free birthing time. Post-partum, Rose stayed with us for several hours, helping with anything we needed, including getting some rest, and providing breastfeeding coaching. She even came to visit us again in our home to ensure all is well with my post-partum recovery and to offer her continued support should we needed anything.
We were able to have a completely natural childbirth in both cases, though my babies were 9.8 and 10.11lb respectively. Not many people can say that they had a beautiful birth experience, but we had two unique and beautiful birth experiences; and Rose's support made all the difference to make it possible.
