Testimonial for Melissa Espey-Mueller
Melissa was wonderful! My labor progressed very quickly, and I credit Melissa with much of that. She led us through the labor process and had me try different positions and approaches that I truly believe helped move things along. Beyond that, she continuously reassured me that, YES, I could do this - even when it was excruciatingly difficult and I questioned my ability to make it through a vaginal, drug-free delivery.
Post-delivery, I struggled with breastfeeding and Melissa was invaluable on that front as well. She identified my daughter's Class 4 lip tie and posterior tongue tie and connected me with an excellent pediatric dentist to correct the conditions. She also came to my house and spent 2.5 hours with me on breastfeeding - and this was the day before her doula practice was scheduled to host a major open house to show off their new offices! I'm sure that spending the afternoon with me wasn't on her schedule for the day, but she did it gladly.
Bottom line, I highly recommend Melissa. She is knowledgeable, attentive and passionate about what she does. I won't hesitate to use her again if the opportunity arises.
