Testimonial for Gabe Lazarus, CD, CPC, HCHD
When I got pregnant with my second child, I knew I wanted a natural birth so I began researching all of my options. Along with all of the research I did, I began looking for a doula. I talked with a few doulas so I could get a sense of how our personalities matched. When I met Gabe I knew she would be a perfect fit for our birth experience! She was quiet, calm and kind...all the things I was hoping for in a doula.She was also very professional and organized. She really spent time getting to know me and my plans for birth.
Throughout the pregnancy she was a fantastic resource for any and all of my questions. She was so sweet to my husband and older child, always incorporating them into our discussions of pregnancy and birth. I was impressed with her experience and she always had great advice for any pregnancy discomforts!
Near the end of the pregnancy she kept in close contact with us, so we were all on the same page about how labor was (or was not!) progressing. When I did go into labor it was such a relief and a joy to have her at the birth center with us. In early labor she was so fun to chit chat with while we passed the time! When labor began getting more intense, Gabe was a very calming presence and had many wonderful suggestions about positions and other ways to manage my labor. She was so positive and encouraging, always motivating me and gently reminding me of my goals. Gabe was very in-tune with my labor and worked so well with our nurse and midwife. She felt like a natural addition to our labor "team".
I would highly recommend Gabe as your doula! We were blessed to have found her and I'm so glad she helped us bring our baby girl into the world!
