Testimonial for Katie Collins
I was not sure at first about having a doula attend the birth of my third child, but now I am so sad I didn't have Katie at the births of my first two!
She was at the hospital before my husband and I even arrived, ready with her bag of equipment to help me through the labor. She did everything possible to help me and never left my side. She walked the halls with me, rubbed my back, timed my contractions, and had such encouraging words for me as well as great advice to get me through.
Katie has so much knowledge about breathing techniques and different natural ways to ease the pain of labor and overall make it a better experience.
She was also a wonderful advocate for me with the nurses and other health care professionals, making sure my needs were met and my wishes were known.
Another thing that I was so grateful for was that Katie took so much pressure off my husband. If he wanted to go get something to eat, or take a little break or a rest, Katie was right at my side.
If you are looking for a doula, Katie is your best choice! Unless I'm in labor at the same time, in which case I call dibs :-)
