Testimonial for Annamarie Rodney
I made a last minute decision to have a doula, I thought I had left it too late but as Anna reassured me "as long as the baby is still inside you it's never too late!" And she was right, we met with Celena and I immediately knew I wanted her at the birth of my baby. The birth was rather tricky towards the end and Celena held my hand and kissed my face like a mother would with her own child, I remember crying and holding her hand so tightly, I am so glad she was there, I'll never forget that moment. I was so happy to see her the next day when she had encapsulated my placenta, I honestly think it aided in my quick recovery and definitely my mood post partum. As a result of the delivery I needed help around the house postpartum and Anna very quickly arranged for Adriana to come to my rescue - she did the many loads of laundry that a new baby (and a 5 year old!) creates, she cleaned the house and entertained my eldest while I napped with the baby, she even came with me to a midwife appointment and looked after the baby and she gave me a massage too! I will forever be grateful to Anna and her team and how much the helped me, what a wonderful service they provide.
