Testimonial for Stephanie Read, CD(DONA), Ayurvedic Doula, RPYT
Stephanie attended the birth of my first child on 12/22/14. She met me and my husband at home and then followed us to Harris Hospital in downtown Fort Worth. I did not meet Stephanie until I went into labor because she was serving as backup doula, but I am so grateful she was on call! She is calm, poised, and professional.
When she got to our home, she had soothing music and essential oils to help with nausea. She had me bounce and sway on the stability ball to encourage the baby to move down and also helped both my husband and mother provide comfort measures such as squeezing my hips during contractions.
She continued to be supportive at the hospital and stayed with me when my husband followed the baby to be checked out by the NICU team. I know my husband was especially appreciative of her help when we were at home.
Stephanie checked in 12 hours after the birth and later came for a home visit, during which we reviewed the birth. I wouldn't hesitate to work with her again.
