Testimonial for Noleen Thurman CD(DONA) & Birth Photographer
The first time I brought up hiring a doula my husband was completely opposed. He said it might have made sense to do for our first or second births, but this was our 5th baby and he thought he would feel totally uncomfortable having a stranger present. Until he met Noleen. She was calm, logical, gently assertive and relatable. Any time I had a question that she didn't know she quickly reached out and found not one, but several possible options to provide me with ample resources to make my own decisions. The most treasured part of my experience with Noleen were the beautiful pictures she captured. The last part of the birth went from managable to completely out of control and fast and furious, so I was in daze of shock, love and joy immediately after. Noleen swiftly and silently wandered around completely unnoticed snapping the most precious moments of our family. It wasn't until our post-partum visit after that I even realized she had done it! And it certainly wasn't until she presented me with the images that I realized how gifted she was with photography too. Noleen will be a blessing to your birth!
