"I don't know how people have babies without doulas!" is what my husband told me after working with Elaine during our first pregnancy. Even before labor started, we felt reassured knowing she would be with us at home and in the hospital to support us. We so appreciated her calm spirit and support during an intense labor. When we called her to come to our house during active labor, Elaine got right to work and helped me so much with massage, pressure, and coaching me through different laboring positions. She continued to help me work through contractions as we walked to the labor and delivery room and once we arrived. She was always present when I needed something, but never intrusive. Even though we had only met a few times prior to labor, I felt increbily comoftable with her in the room. Overall, hiring Elaine as our doula helped my husband and I feel more prepared heading into labor, comforted during the process, and supported during recovery. I would highly reccomend her to my own friends and family, or anyone who is seeking that type of consistent, knowledgable support during labor.
