I simply cannot say enough about why any expecting couple should hire Jenn as their Doula. We met Jenn through Heart 2 Heart Birthing Center as she was the one giving the calm birth class which we elected to attend and knew almost instantly that we wanted to hire her to be their day of. And boy are we glad we did.
My water broke at 8:30am on a Saturday, and after calling my husband, and the birthing center, I called Jenn who was on her way stat. She arrived shortly after we did and helped us get settled and unpacked into our birthing suite. She helped my husband and I through all the previously practiced techniques that we learned in class, and in our private meetings with her, but most importantly she was there to support us in any way possible.
Both of us had a lot of fear and anxiety about choosing to have a natural birth, but our meetings with Jenn helped us overcome that. We even felt stronger in our relationship heading into this life changing event. Jenn was there for us from beginning to end for us and would still to this day pick up a phone call from us about new parent issues like breastfeeding, fussy baby, etc.
After a rather quick labor of about 6 hours, my husband and I welcomed our beautiful baby boy into this world, in large part due to Jenn’s immense skill, passion, and kind heartedness. Both of us are so grateful we made the choice to not only have a doula present at the birth, but this one specifically.
