Testimonial for Laura DePasquale, CD(DONA)

My husband and I were recommended to Laura by several friends who had used her.  I have never heard so many positive reviews about someone, she is loved and valued by many birthing mothers.  We knew we wanted to go the Natural route and heard she would provide the support to get us there if it was possible.  We took her classes which were very informative and provided the right amount of information without overwhelming you. From the moment she showed up at the hospital we felt relaxed knowing she was there.  Laura had all her tools to help me during labour and used them in such a calm, kind, gentle way. She was so supportive throught out the whole labour and very positive and reassuring. Everything I learned went out the window once the contractions really kicked in and thats when Laura really saved me.  She was by my side very softly reminding me how to relax between contractions, breath, take a drink to stay hydrated etc.  She didnt miss a beat and gave me the strength to make it though.  My husband also appreciated having her by his side, she could guide him as well on how to comfort me and rub me etc. I can honestly look back at my birth and only have positive memories of it, surrounded by an AWESOME support team.   From experience I can honestly say Laura is the best Doula! Last year I was in the room while my sister was in labour, she used a differenct Doula.......It was a very UNfortunate experience for her, this Doula did not even come close to the support that Laura provided and her birth plan was not taken seriously. My sister was with me during my birth and she saw first hand how amazing Laura is, now that she is pregnant again she has hired Laura becasue she knows the support she will have. At the end not only do we have a great memory of our birth but we have gained a friend, Laura!
