Testimonial for Luci Gimenes
This is our first baby, and Luci's help was invaluable! We had good prenatal visits where Luci talked to us about labor and comfort measures and showed what to do. She also gave me a great massage and taught my partner some of the techniques. We called her and asked her to come several hours into labor. She arrived very soon and stayed with us untill the very end. She was giving me back rubs and the hip squeeze that turned out to be the best for me to ease the contraction pain. Once we were at the hospital, Luci continued to provide me with comfort measures together with my partner. They worked as a real team!
My partner and I both agree that Luci's knowledge of the medical side of things is really a great advantage.
She was very supportive but also very non-intrusive, allowing us some privacy. She was making suggestions and keeping my partner busy with things to do while not compromising our direct experience of the labor and birth process.
Our doctor later also praised Luci's performance during the labor.
Luci also came to help with breastfeeding and gave us so many pieces of advice on handling the baby.
We are extremely grateful to Luci and happy to have chosen her. We will definitely use her service with the second baby! :)
