Testimonial for Ravae Sinclair, JD, CLC, PBD(NBPP), PPD(NBPP),PCD(DONA)
I don't have the words to explain how impactful Ravae was in the successful labor and delivery of my second daughter. She arrived at the birth center and jumped right in to start clocking contraction (alleviating a big burden for my hubby). She got out some of her "tools" and immediately started making me more comfortable with the early stages of labor. She helped me in and out of the tub with ease. Fired up the shower with hot water the perfect temperature for relaxing and easing my sore muscles. She applied counterpressure to every back labor contraction I had. Without her I may not have made it through from 8.5 - 10 cm! She was encouraging, respectful, uplifting, and incredibly motivating with her words and actions - every step of or should I say contraction along the way. In addition to her incredible labor support, she was there for kangaroo care and skin to skin, first nursing, and bathroom visit - helping in any way needed. Ravae was a truly involved and valued member of my team, even my midwife commented about how knowledgable and at ease Ravae was under pressure. And for the record, my midwife is not easily impressed. Ravae also provided an excellent and true to her style encouraging post partum visit to ensure breastfeeding was going well and that we were all adjusting to the new baby as well. I would highly recommend Ravae to any one considering a doula. You will not be dissapointed.
