I first met Heather at our public library when I was 6 months pregnant with our daughter. My son and I were playing and. I happened to be talking to our librarian about my hopes for a natural delivery. Heather (thankfully) chimed in while playing with her kids and gave me some wonderful advice and encouragement even before telling me she was a doula. She immediately made an impression on me, as I had been feeling so discouraged lately by all my OB's. I came home feeling encouraged and empowered and talking with her was just what I needed. Of course, I called her back and asked her if she would be my doula!
She was so great during my labor with Ivy. She was at my home for 8 hours and at the hospital with us for another 8. She pushed me when I felt like I couldnt go any more and I loved her for that because she knew what I truly wanted. She was there for me the whole time, rooting for me. And while my daughter ended up being delivered via c-section, I was so glad I had the experience that I did with Heather'. Expertise. She even took some beautiful pictures of me laboring with my husband coaching me. I would definitely recommend Heather!
