Testimonial for Maggie Gott (Watkins)
We hired Maggie for our first birth. Maggie is knowledgeable, kind, down to earth, and always a text or phone call away. She met with us in our home a couple of times prior to the delivery to discuss our birth plan and answer anything we had questions about. She was a fountain of knowledge as well as provided us with lots of resources, videos, etc to help us prepare for delivery and once we brought our baby home. Maggie was a positive source of encouragement throughout the entire process, especially during labor and delivery. My delivery did not go how I originally planned, but Maggie was there to guide us throughout each phase of labor, and was very supportive of each decision we made. During delivery she asked the doctor if we could try one more technique/position when the doctor suggested a c-section, and it worked!! I was most thankful for Maggie during that moment. Without her knowledge, my birth story would have had a different ending. She visited us the following day at the hospital as well as came to our house for a postpartum visit once we were home. We highly recommend Maggie if you are considering a doula for your birth! We would definitely use her again in the future and have already passed on her contact information to several friends who are expecting.
