Testimonial for Diana Fisher
I could not have asked for a better prenatal and birthing experience. To give a little background, I am a first time mom who did not attended any birthing classes and gave birth at the Midwife's Place.
Diana, was amazing about reaching out to me when my friend-doula was unable to provide services to me. I met Diana at first in her home and knew she was a completely down-to-earth person. We casually spoke, I had no real questions but just wanted to know Diana as a person. My big thing was to have someone with a pleasant voice and a friendly face. We kept it really casual at every encounter which was nice that she is both professional but warm. The last thing I wanted was a clinical, serious person with an overbearing presence. My next issue, was having a doula that would not only help me during labor but also my significant other (SO). I wanted him to feel empowered and part of the birth. During labor it was amazing how both of them worked as a team. A contraction would come and they would take turns providing counter-pressure or emotional and breathing support. I feel like having Diana there helped both of us; we were relieved when she came to our house during the beginning of my labor, we needed someone knowledgeable on when to go to the birthing center, alternative positions and places. She also was able to give my SO a break and not have him feel guilty about it. Having both of them at birth provided me with strength and support, I needed. I honestly don't think I could've done it all natural without her. I remember feeling calm every-time I looked at her. She also took some lovely photos with her phone that I wil cherish forever!
Oh bonus, she likes dogs, haha. I have 4 and I didn't have to worry about them bothering her. I would highly
