There are not enough great things to say about Tonya, I met her through South Coast Midwifery where I was planning on delivering my baby girl; from the moment I met her I felt an instant connection with her and I knew she would be perfect to have on our journey. Any concern I had along the way she was there being supportive and encouraging, the night I went into labor I was progressing really fast and Tonya was the calm in the room and the clear voice for my husband and I, she talked me through my contractions and constantly motivated me. When we arrived at the birth center and was told my baby was breached and had to be taken to the hospital for an emergency c-section Tonya talked me through and was so encouraging and never left my sight until she had to, she remained calm and collected and that helped so much. Tonya stayed at the hospital until I was taken out of recovery and into my room, it was the best feeling to see her, she didn't have to stay but she did to make sure I was ok to meet my little girl and to offer support in any way possible to my husband. It meant So much to me to see her there, Tonya will definitely be the official Pedroza doula for our future little ones, I wouldn't want it any other way.
