Testimonial for Vanessa Lewis, CPM (Cert Professional Midwife), CBD, PEP
After having a traumatic birth and hospital stay with our first, my husband and I agreed to hire a doula the second time around.
One day while searching the internet for a local doula, there she was; Vanessa. She was an invaluable part of our birth team, and my pregnancy. She was always an email away with advice/answers for my, sometimes bizarre, questions and support.
I had a strange induction lasting 44 hours, she was there as soon as I let her know I needed her and she never left my side throughout the process, except to leave the room while I had my epidural put in. (Even before I actually got it, she quickly explained that once I asked for the medication everything would move quickly during that process.) When my epidural failed, and things started to get crazy she even prayed with me! After Samantha was born, she stayed until she made sure I was okay. After my daughter’s birth she had a couple of hours to get some sleep then attended 7 other births all back to back with no break, and even with that she still had my placenta encapsulation and tincture ready within a week and my pictures within two!
My husband has even raved about her to our family! He’s said that with the knowledge, experience and support Vanessa brings, she is worth every penny we paid her and more.
I honestly can not wait to get pregnant again, and when I do Vanessa will be the first person I call.
