Testimonial for Elaine Allen
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Elaine. I have always known that I wanted to have a natural childbirth and decided in my third trimester to find a doula. I immediately gravitated towards Elaine's profile as she offered acupressure and took photos during labor and birth. When we had our initial meeting with Elaine we were very comfortable with her and could tell she was passionate about being part of her clients' birth experience. She is a wealth of knowledge and was able to answer all the questions I had about the birth process as well as what to expect postpartum. During my labor, Elaine was incredibly helpful with positioning, massage, acupressure, and aromatherapy. My husband felt so much more comfortable helping me during the labor process with Elaine there giving him pointers and putting us both at ease. He tells everyone how happy he is we decided to have a doula! Both Elaine and my husband were so encouraging when the pain became almost unbearable and I wanted to give in. They were the reason I could push through and give birth to our daughter without an epidural!! I loved that Elaine took pictures and gave us a cd of the images when she met us during our postpartum meeting. She brought me mother's milk tea and gave me great breastfeeding advice. My husband and I are so happy with our birth experience and we are so thankful that we had Elaine as our doula.
