Testimonial for Madison Desjarlais
We met Madison only four days before our baby girl arrived, but we felt at ease and comfortable with her knowledge and expertise right away. She was professional, calm and friendly, which was demonstrated throughout our labour & delivery.
At the hospital, doctors & nurses were about to perform their routine checks on me, but Madison was always questioning and ensuring the processes they were suggesting were necessary. She was always thoughtful of our wishes to have a natural birth and ensured that the doctors & nurses did not impose any procedures that were not necessary. She took the time to explain the pros & cons to us anytime I didn’t know if I should do what the doctor was suggesting. With Madison’s experience, she was able to request for more time for me to labour (on more than one occasion), which was key in our successful and natural birth delivery.
My husband was expecting help from our doula, but the support Madison provided surpassed his expectations! She was awesome at the hip squeeze and applied it at the perfect timing during contractions. She also took turns with him when they performed “shaking the apples” technique which worked miracles for our baby to get in position for delivery. She also helped us take memorable photographs.
She was patient and encouraging, helping me visualize and keeping me calm throughout the labour process.
We highly recommend Madison who will be invaluable at making a memorable positive birthing experience. We are so happy to have Madison a part of our baby girls birth!
