Testimonial for Shelby Hicks, CD(DONA)

Shelby was an amazing asset to our birthing plan. Before our delivery, she was available to use for any reason. She responded promptly. At 3am when our labor began, she answered our text immediately. She arrived at the hospital seconds after we did and stayed to help us, as new parents, learn to breastfeed. During our labor, Shelby helped me stay focus and helped my husband stay calm and be an amazing support to me. I do not feel that I would have accomplished my goal having a natural delivery without Shelby. She could focus in on things that were calming to me. She helped communicate my plan and needs to the nursing staff. My husband felt that she made him feel reassured. He stated it was comforting having someone with knowledge and experience there with us through the entire labor. She was able to have ideas for us that the nurses didn't suggest to help us progross through the labor. I would recommend Shelby as a doula to anyone that asks!
