Let me start by telling you who Kelly Sunshine, of Sunshine Doula Services, is not. She is not a messy disorganized hippie, despite my husband's assumptions of who she would be. She ended up being a pleasant ray of sunshine to my husband, as I always expected her to be. She is not unreliable, her time and experience are definitely not a waste of money, nor is she overpriced. She got back to me fairly quickly after my initial inquiry, which was surprising to me because when looking for a doula during a previous pregnancy only 1 of 5 doulas responded to me. Kelly books up quickly, which is a sure sign she's excellent, so your best bet is to call or message her immediately after discovering you're pregnant, and send your deposit to hold a spot ASAP. Kelly Sunshine is someone you would love to have a glass of wine with when you're no longer pregnant. She is someone you feel comfortable around right from the start. She's like an old friend, or maybe a sister you never had, who also comes with a bag of tricks to make your labor much much easier. You need her. You need her. You need her. I'm so happy I found her and that she helped me through a successful VBAC.
