Testimonial for DC Birth Doulas, LLC
i'm writing this review on behalf of my wife and I, who worked with DC Birth Doulas for the birth of our first son in April.
We found all of the doulas to be professional and courteous during the meet and greet session, but we worked primarily with Sara Baum.
From the beginning, Sara was very responsive to our needs. She answered emails about a variety of topics - from working out logistical details to finding pregnancy-safe massage oils - immediately. When she came to our house for the pre-labor visit, she was very personable and gave us confidence in our ability to work as a team throughout labor.
Because of unforeseen medical circumstances, my wife was not able to do an unmedicated labor as initially planned. Sara was incredibly reassuring that we were making the best decision with the information that we had; she then helped us through a joyful and successful labor and delivery process. We were very happy to have her there with us!
After delivery, Sara stayed with us and answered our (many) questions. Even after that day, Sara came to our home, answered questions via email, and gave us any information or referrals that we needed. Her professional standing in the field and her kind, personable nature have helped her to become connected to even more great resources that we have been using since our son was born.
Honestly, we couldn't say enough good things about Sara and DC Birth Doulas! If we have another child we will certainly work with them again.
