Testimonial for Char Char Perkins RN LCCE, CD(DONA)
Char was an incredible source of knowledge and support. During what ended up being an incredibly long process she was somehow both everywhere I needed her to be and yet never in the way or overwhelming. She ensured my husband was very involved and at the center of the action by supporting him, making gentle suggestions and working together to ensure I was as comfortable as possible. When things during our birth didn't go according to our plan she helped us to work through our options and was incredibly supportive of our decisions.
Char created a relationship with us long before the actual birth and was great at answering questions and providing additional supplemental information on everything we were experiencing. She remained abreast of our current issues and offered suggestions as things unfolded during the final part of the pregnancy.
Her presence allowed me to concentrate on simply being in the moment and know that she was my advocate to ensure that the things that were important to me were taken care of. This releived a lot of pressure and stress from my hsband and me. After the birth as the nurses began to wrap our baby in a towel she immediately stepped in to ensure they knew our wishes to have skin to skin contact. That is just one small example of the details Char was able to manage for us-and just one small example of the role she played in ensuring our baby had the best welcome into the world we could provide him.
Should we have another child we will most certainly use Char's services again and we wholeheartedly recommend others use her as well.
