My husband and I cannot express our gratitude enough for the services Michele provided as our doula. Michele not only provided us with helpful resources and information related to our interests prior to our birth, but was extremely flexible and helpful during and after our labor and delivery as well. Although we had planned to labor at home, circumstances required us to be at the hospital sooner and longer than planned. Michele met us there and helped get my labor started, provided suggestions for working through contractions, and was EXTREMELY helpful in helping my husband understand ways to keep me as comfortable as possible during my labor. She was also very encouraging to me during each contraction, letting me know when the worst was over and telling me to keep going. We honestly could not have had the birth we wanted without her help, guidance, and encouragement. Michele also helped us ask the right questions after birth and made it possible for us to spend as much time with our son by asking the nurses to accommodate our wishes. I would highly recommend Michele to anyone considering a doula - she's respectful of your choices and there to help you realize the birth that you envision. She was an amazing addition to our birthing team.
