I don’t know the right words to even begin to explain how much of a blessing and a miracle it was to have Melanie come into my life as my doula. Melanie and I met nearing the end of my second pregnancy. At the time I was going through a very hard situation in my life and she became my guardian angel. My first pregnancy did not go as planned at all. I wanted a natural birth with no medication. Being that this was my first pregnancy I listened to what the doctors told me was necessary instead of listening to my body or asking questions. I ended up being induced which in my eyes was before my child was ready and it resulted in a very unwanted c section. After that experience I told myself I would never have the same one again. Flash forward to the end of my second pregnancy I was blessed through a program with Melanie. She came to my appointments, she checked in on me daily, she became my voice when I was too timid to speak for myself. She went above and beyond her duties as my doula and I couldn’t have been happier. Even when I dealt with a week long prodromal labor she kept encouraging me. She reminded me that I was strong and amazing even when I was at my lowest of lows and felt the total opposite. I don’t know where I would be without her being placed in my life and I couldn’t imagine my life without her. She advocated for me and my family when I didn’t feel I had a voice. In my eyes she is more then just a doula, she's a lawyer, she's a motivational speaker, she's an amazing support system, she's a wonderful friend, and above all I can now say she's an irreplaceable family member. I would recommend her over and over again to anyone in search of having a truly blissful doula experience. She's the best of the best!
