Testimonial for Raychel Franzen, CD(DONA), CLC, LCCE

From our first meeting with Raychel, we immediately felt comfortable and knew we would be well taken care of. She has an air of warmth and friendliness about her coupled with her professionalism and keen insights as a doula. Both the prenatal visits were tremendously helpful and informative; Raychel was always very present with us, spending as much time as needed to answer all of our questions and help us think through our birth plan. In the days before my labor, I checked in with Raychel A LOT, and without fail, she took the time to respond promptly and fully, always making me feel supported. As my labor progressed, Raychel was instrumental in helping us determine when best to go to the hospital. Throughout what was a very long labor, Raychel really never left our side. She was a wonderful resource, always suggesting a variety of birthing techniques. One aspect that really stood out to us was Raychel’s ability to offer advice and knowledge but ultimately support whatever decisions we made without any judgment. Through my labor, she truly took on the role of caretaker, motivator, cheerleader (in the best sense of the word), and friend. Overall, we had a wonderful experience with Raychel and would recommend her to anyone looking for doula support.
