Testimonial for Roseanne Ebert CD(DONA)
Roseanne has been by my side for both of my pregnancies and I couldn’t ask for a better doula. The first time I met Roseanne was at a Valley Hospital baby shower. Prior to that meeting I can't really say I was looking for a doula, didn't really think I needed one. But within the 20ish minutes we were talking that all changed! Roseanne is an open book and that is exactly what I needed, someone who could talk me through the biggest unknown of my life at the time. I got to know Roseanne over the next few months. I’d talk with her after every doctor’s visit and she would further walk me through what was going on with me and my baby. I never once felt rushed with Roseanne, even with three children of her own she spends quality time with her mommies. An hour+ long conversation wasn’t uncommon. When I had my first child she was there with me laboring every step of the way at the hospital. I think she was only 10 mins behind me getting to the hospital. Not only was she there for me, but she was a huge support for my husband. She calmly talked both of us through the process and instructed him as to how to help me. She had me up, in the shower, on a birthing ball, dancing with my husband; she even took pictures for us while I was laboring! She also had her bag of goodies, oils, teas, etc. that helped me relax. Not to mention that the nursing staff (and my OB) LOVE working with Roseanne. When we found out we were pregnant with #2 the first thing my husband said was, “So you’re calling Roseanne right?” Again with my second pregnancy she was just as attentive. I remember she had come over one afternoon to go over my birthing plan; she lit up when she saw my son. She held him and couldn’t take her eyes off him the entire time. She genuinely loves “her babies" & her mommies! I really can’t say anything but praises for Roseanne. Any and every woman would be lucky to have her by their side.
