Testimonial for Simone Toomer, CD/CBE(DTI), IBCLC, CBC, LCCE, ISE
Simone was recommended by my doctor’s office as they had worked with her before and had a positive experience. It was important to me that my physician and doula had a good working relationship so this was a strong vote of confidence from the start. This was my second birth and I was trying for a VBAC. Not only does Simone have experience with VBACs, but she was also familiar with the hospital where I was planning to deliver, all which combined made her a good match for us. This was further reinforced after meeting her in person. Simone exudes a sense of calm. She listens to your concerns and offers advice without judgment. After having the experience of giving birth with and without a doula, both my husband and I would recommend working with a doula like Simone. She is not only skilled, but also simply a lovely human being. We had many hours of laboring and waiting, and my husband and I enjoyed our conversations with Simone about family, world cultures, babies, food and more. She routinely checked in with me, took stock of the room, made sure to reassure me and keep a positive attitude when there were challenges in the birthing process and ultimately helped give me the confidence and support for a successful VBAC.
