Cara is a knowledgeable and caring doula whose many years of experience show through right from the start as she prepares you for any type of labor. She began by providing us advice on questions to ask our health provider, suggestions for prenatal supplements, and exercises to help me strengthen myself both physically and mentally ahead of the birth of our first child. At week 35, my husband and I sat down with both Cara and Kerry to discuss our birth plan and preferences in detail. Due to a complication I was induced at 39 weeks, which immediately (and completely!) changed my birth plan. Throughout the three-day labor that resulted, Cara was in touch constantly, visiting when appropriate, advising my husband and I and discussing next steps with us. She is the best guide and advocate to have by your side through any scenario. She’s also very thoughtful—she ensured all the nurses were up to date on my latest health status and birth preferences (we were assisted by at least 8 nurses), and she even brought my husband food. We’re very happy to have had Cara as our doula and wholeheartedly recommend her. No matter what type of birth you hope for, Cara will provide you skilled support and empathetic guidance, and will help you calmly adapt when the birth plan (inevitably!) has to change.
