Testimonial for Brenda Giourmetakis
I found Brenda’s support prenatally and during the home water birth of our second child to be incredible and so important. I look the birth journey class Brenda offered near the end of my pregnancy, and it really put me in touch with my body, my baby and the birth process. We also hired Brenda to put on a mothers blessing for me, it was a truly wonderful and empowering evening with myself and the other women I am close to. I found the class to be very healing and informative, bringing out some really great parts of pregnancy that are so easily lost in the preparation for a new baby. For the birth itself Brenda was so attentive, especially in helping my husband to feel confident and a helpful part of my labor. She was such a comfort to have in our home; just her presence alone helped me to feel at ease. There were moments where I wasn’t sure what I wanted but she knew exactly how to switch directions and help us to find something to bring me comfort. She filled our birth pool while I was laboring and took some really amazing photos of the birth; not to mention emptying and cleaning up the pool after the birth as well. If you are considering Brenda as a doula I highly suggest you meet with her, you will not be disappointed! she was truly a completely invaluable part of our gentle birth team.
