Testimonial for Jade Newkirk, CYT-200, LCCE, CHD, CLC
As a newly expecting mom and previous c-section survivor it was important to me to prepare for a natural delivery the second time around. Although nervous and somewhat anxious about the road ahead I decided it would be best to work with a professional; someone who would be able to coach me through and provide support during my trial of labor. When I contacted Jade I knew immediately that I wanted to work with her. Her energy was calming and she spoke with me for 45 minutes before we made any arrangements to proceed. When I explained my first birth story she automatically offered information and insight that no one had offered before.
As we began our working relationship Jade not only assured me I could deliver naturally, but made sure I was aware of providers who would support my decision. I initially thought Doula's only offered assistance during labor, but she was so much more than just my birth coach and support person. She really cared about my story and wanted to ensure I received the care and treatment leading up to labor that I was entitled to. When Jade realized that initial provider was not as supportive as they once alluded to, she worked hard to help me identify a Vbac supportive provider the week before my due date. I was able to switch providers in my 39th week and deliver a healthy happy baby boy. This demonstrates her compassion and dedication to those she serves. I learned so much working with Jade and now I feel compelled to share my story with all moms to be.
Jade allowed me to recognize that as women we are in control of our bodies and birth, its our God given right. If it werent for Jade I know I would have ended up with another c section. With her by my side I was able to have a healing birth and share my newly found knowledge with other women who may benefit.
Jade will always be a friend to me :)
