Testimonial for Susanna Mauzy
I knew we liked Susanna from the moment we met her.
It was great to have three prenatal sessions to get to know each other so that by the time my birth rolled around she felt like a trusted friend. These prenatal sessions were like our own private birth classes, where we felt we could ask any questions we liked. As the birth approached, it was great to be able to text her with questions, updates, and for emotional support. That emotional support became critical when the baby decided to make us wait two weeks beyond the due date!
The night I went into labor, I texted Susanna at 2AM. We texted back and forth for over an hour before deciding this was definitely it and heading to the hospital. At the hospital, Susanna provided great physical and emotional support to me, but what really surprised me was what great emotional support she provided to my husband as well. Having her there made me feel really safe and protected -- I knew I was in good hands! She supported us through 36 grueling hours of labor, and we would have felt lost without her.
Hiring a doula was one of the best decisions we made ahead of my daughter's birth. Having Susanna help guide us through the experience (before, during, and after labor) was really wonderful, and I recommend her wholeheartedly.
