Testimonial for Shaman Tomecas, CHD(The Matrona)
My husband and I decided to pursue hiring a doula during my third trimester of my pregnancy. I did my research on doulas and Tomecas was the first and only doula we interviewed and right away we loved her! Not only was she willing to take me on as a client at the last minute (33 weeks pregnant) but she was also very accomodating, loving, warm-spirited, and understood my desire to deliver naturally. She met with us at our home within the same week, to understand our needs and to tell us how best she could assist us. At all times Tomecas showed me that she was here for me and had my back. Tomecas is a doula who really develops a relationship and love for and with her clients. She called me many times to check on me and also provided helpful tips and advice during the final weeks of my pregnancy and even postpartum. She also used to be a labor and delivery nurse which for me, was a huge plus! My son was born on the 28th of April, 10 days past my estimated due date, and as you can imagine..I was beyond ready to deliver this first baby of mine. Tomecas suggested that we meet up and really get walking to help my son engage lower, she spent three hours of her saturday at Atlantic Station walking and talking with me. I was so touched by her support! During my labor Tomecas encouraged me, danced with me, rubbed my back, and helped my husband to better help me! She was there in the hospital with us during the labor and delivery and even during our recovery. In that moment, she was not only my doula but also my sister, my mother, and my friend. Looking back at our experience, my husband and I agree that reaching out to Tomecas and asking her to be our doula was one of the best things that we could have done for the pregnancy. She helped us through the challenges and was there welcoming our sweet baby boy to earthside with us. When we are ready to have more children Tomecas will definitely be our doula! We are so forever grateful for her!
