Testimonial for Carolyn Ericson
Carolyn was absolutely wonderful to work with, I would recommend her services without any reservations! I was looking for a Doula who could help me achieve a VBAC for the birth of my second child, and I was interested in Carolyn particularly because of her personal and professional experience with VBACs. The prenatal sessions with Carolyn were phenomenal – she instantly struck up a great rapport with me and my husband, answered all of our questions really well, and sent me additional resources that I needed. She also lent me a TENS unit that was essential during early labor. When I went into labor, Carolyn came to our home and stayed with me for a few hours as my contractions were starting. When it became clear that my early labor could go on for days, Carolyn remained reachable over phone and email as my labor progressed. She then joined me and my husband in the hospital, and was with us there for over 24 hours until I gave birth. Despite being an expert in natural birth herself, Caroline was totally supportive of my desire for an epidural, and helped me move around in the hospital bed after it was administered. She also gave amazing massages, coached us through contractions, and was fantastic at anticipating and helping with whatever else was needed. Following the birth, Carolyn helped out a great deal with breast-feeding and also provided a beautiful write up of my daughter's labor and birth story. You will not be sorry if you use Carolyn as your Doula!
