Testimonial for Dana Oakes-Sand AS, CCE, MCD, NMPP, IPES

2/2

Dana had me moving into various positions that allowed me to work with the contractions. She reminded me to breathe deeply and that each contraction was one that was bringing me closer to my baby. For about an hour I would lean into Harmony as each contraction would arrive, using her incredibly sturdy (and pregnant!) body to support me physically and emotionally.
As I began to push, Dana stood over me with the rest of my support team guiding me into the most optimal positions. Every time I lost my breath she would remind me to inhale and exhale deeply, bringing me back into the present moment. There was no way I could have made it through the physically and emotionally draining process of labor so successfully without my wonderful Doula (and her apprentice). Both of these women were born to be doulas!
