I hired Christine Vermeersch as my birth doula for my first baby due in Aug 2016. I phone interviewed about 5 doulas and narrowed it down to 3. Meet them and eventually decided to go with Christine Vermeersch. The reason why I chose her was because I really felt connected with her and felt as if she was my mother. She's also on her way to become a licensed lactation consultant, which turned out to be very helpful. I'm really glad that I chose Christine. What a great choice I have made! Christine is very knowledgeable and educated/informed me of all the things I needed to know for a natural birth. I can't imagine what I would've done without her support during labor. She's calm, gentle and patient. At the final moment when I was pushing, I wanted to her to hold me, rather than my husband, lol. I ended up delivering a healthy baby girl in a natural birth without any pain medication, which was exactly what I had hoped for. My birth experwince was very positive. I don't think I could've had such a positive experience without her support. I highly recommend Christine as a doula. And I think I will choose her again for my future births.
