Testimonial for Anna Tarasova
Anna was with us during the labor and birth of both of our children, our son in 2013 and daughter three years later. I can't imagine going through labor without her. She is strong, calm and confident. She was the perfect source of support for both me and my husband. Anna was with us for more than 24 hours during my first, long labor--she stayed with us through one trip to the hospital, back home to labor some more, and back to the hospital. She had unflagging energy, kept me going, gave my husband breaks for food and naps. Her presence was no less essential during my second, very short and fast labor. She recognized my active labor at home, helped me through very strong and fast contractions, and enabled us get to the hospital just in time (fully dilated). She supported me literally--physically!--while I pushed. In both cases I had a vaginal delivery without pain medication. She was a great advocate for me with the nursing staff, and I know my group of midwives respects and likes working with her. I can hardly express my gratitude here! Anna lent me some of her great courage. She was absolutely the right doula for me.
