Testimonial for Oryslawa (Ory) Seidemann
Ory was our night doula for our second child. My first post partum period was very difficult due to some health complications.
Then we met Ory. She came for an interview and right off the bat I could tell what a warm and caring she was. She presented herself in such a way that both my husband and I felt comfortable with her from the start. When she began with us, it only took a few nights until our trust in her grew so much that all my concerns vanished.
Part of this was her communication. She had a log of everything that happened and we discussed it in detail every morning. At night, we were able to both spend a little time with our baby before she went down. Watching how Ory would sing to her and cuddle her was truly heart warming. Not only is she helping me to sleep, but she was truly bonding with my baby. It was nothing short of amazing.
Although I had an 18 month old when my girl was born, I still had many questions and the constant worry of if I was doing every thing “right”. I always felt comfortable discussing any and every issue with Ory. Despite that fact that she was clearly knowledgeable about topics surrounding the post partum period, she never made me feel inadequate or unintelligent. Everything was always an open exchange to find the best solution that worked for our baby and our family.
In a time when sleep is hard to come bye, hormones are crazy, and everything about life has been completely turned around, Ory was our angel. She was unbelievably kind, supportive, knowledgeable, reliable and compassionate. She is someone in our lives that truly impacted the way our family of 4 spent its first few months. I truly believe she helped my marriage, my bonding with my baby girl, and strengthened my relationship with my son. Anyone who is lucky enough to have her as their doula will be truly blessed.
