Testimonial for MaryBeth Nance, AdvCD (DONA), CLD (CAPPA), SBD
MaryBeth is one of the kindest, most tenderhearted, careing, and special people I have ever met. Her faith is amazing. Her spirit is so sweet. Her love for family, God, and children is deep. She is so knowledgeable and experienced yet humble. As a doula I not only value her for her knowledge, patience and kindness but also because she is amazing at knowing exactly what you need while in labor and knowing just what to do and when. She has been my doula for two births so far. In 2009 I had her assist with my daughter Audrey's natural/vaginal childbirth and just recently on 7/3/2011 she was my doula for the fast and furious natural/vaginal birth of Eliana. Without her I would have never been able to get through either of those births naturally and so succesfully. With her my birth experiences were amazing. When our second daughter was born with some medical complications she was the voice of calm and experience. So important is that you can trust her. You know she is prayerfully concerned about you and the baby and will do anything and everything in her power to ensure a succesfull birth, whether that is natural, with meds or c-section. You can ask her opinion and based on experience and the situation you can trust she will give you an honest answer and direction you can follow without worrying that it is wrong or not the best choice. Her pre and post baby contact is great too. She did my birth plan, took pictures and did the birth story for both my girls. Lastly, I don't believe there is a judgmental bone in her body. She supports you whomever you are, whatever your birthplan is. She provideds guidance but is not pushy at all. I am blessed to know Marybeth and to call her not just my Doula but my friend.
