Testimonial for Denise Smith (Bilingual: Spanish/English)
I highly recommend Denise for her doula services. I wanted to attempt a natural unmediated birth with my 4th and final child. Having Denise as my doula allowed me to have the child birth experience that I desired.
When I initially met Denise, I felt she was very passionate, excited, and informed about her work. She wanted to get to know me and my past experience with the labor and delivery of my other children. Denise gave my husband and I a very informative and engaging childbirth class to prepare us for delivery day. It not only helped me, but also was great for my husband. As my delivery day approached, she gave me great tips and advice that helped encourage the start of my labor.
On delivery day, Denise advised me to quickly get to the hospital after I told her what was happening while I was laboring at home. I really appreciated this because my labor progressed very quickly. I could have possibly had an undesired delivery at home if it wasn't for Denise!
Denise was immediately by my side at the hospital. The techniques she used and her encouraging words really helped me get through the very intense parts of my labor. Denise helped my husband actually be a part of the process. Not just helplessly standing by like with my previous medicated deliveries. This labor and delivery experience actually strengthened our bond as a couple. I will forever be grateful to Denise for being there for me, and helping me create memories that will last a lifetime!
