Testimonial for Kiera Curtis
When I found out I was pregnant with my second child, the first doula I thought of in the Hampton roads area of Virginia was Kiera. I didn’t even feel the need or want to interview any other doulas. I knew that Kiera would be the perfect fit, she has a natural peace about Her and has such a sweet and calming spirit. When I went into labor she drove over an hour to get to me and she made it just in time. I was definitely at the point in labor where you are in desperate need of your doula. I was struggling to focus mentally, my labors are very fast and very intense. When I felt Kiera’s hand on my back, I knew that she was here and everything was going to be okay. She got to work very quietly and quickly, putting a wash cloth on my neck, diffusing oils, and using counter pressure on my low back. She even made me remember to believe in myself when I was struggling to do so. At one point, my doctor had to manupulate my cervix which is not comfortable. Kiera was right there feeling everything with me and feeling me how strong I was. When I was pushing she had a mirror handy, which helped me focus on the bigger picture. Once my son was born, everyone was focused on the baby but Kiera made sure I didn’t feel forgotten or left behind. She made sure I ate, drank, and was comfortable. I would definitely hire her all over again. During my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum she went above and beyond and truly honors the Doula’s practice and calling.
