I couldn't be happier to have had Melinda as my doula. This was my second child and an at home birth after a hospital experience. The preparation meetings were thoughtfully done and helped settle some of my husbands concerns with an at home birth. When it came to the birth, the short 50 minutes didn't allow for the midwife to get to us in time so when Melinda came into the room and helped deliver the baby, we were all so glad to have her years of experience on hand. In the 20 minutes after the birth while we hung out, enjoying our new son and waiting for the midwife, Melinda was an expert and truly helped calm the nerves of my mother and husband. Although she didn't have much opportunity to show off her labor skills, she was an expert during and after the birth and under pressure when it truly was needed.
