I was on the fence about getting a doula for labor but I am so glad I decided to get one & that I chose Emily. She has such a calming and positive energy which was exactly what I (a first time mom) needed before, during & after labor. With the help of her visits prenatal visits, i felt prepared and more at ease to bring my newborn home to a safe environment. I ended up at the hopsital despite the plan of delivering at the birthing center. With Emily's nurturing and care I was able to still have the natural birth I planned & she made the hospital birthing room comfortable & relaxing. Her encouragment & support was exactly what I needed when I had moments of doubt about being able to make it through the natural labor. The post natal visits to assist with both breast feeding and pumping were great. As a new mom you can drive yourself crazy reading books, articles and websites about the best way to labor, breast feed, sleep with etc. your baby. It was very comforting to have Emily there as a resource to answer questions & to guide me to what made sense for my baby & I.
