Testimonial for Cherish Perez CD(DONA),CLE, CBE
My husband and I can't say enough great things about Cherish! From our first meeting, her sweet, caring demeanor and warm presence made a big impression. It's obvious this is a labor of love for her. Our prenatal appointments were wonderful; she answered all our questions and we practiced laboring positions, coping techniques, and discussed preferences during labor. As soon as she left from our first in-home appointment, my husband said, "I'm glad we hired her!" When the day came, my husband and Cherish were my support people, and Cherish was the best either of us could imagine. As I entered active labor, she busied herself around the room setting up LED candles, dimming lights, playing the cd's I had brought, posting affirmations around the room. Between contractions, she gave me essential oil massages and offered me sips of water and juice. She took over when my husband needed to step out and get something to eat, and helped me remain calm, reminding me of the things we had practiced to cope with the contractions, suggested new positions at intervals to keep labor moving, and was just a wonderful encourager when things didn't go as planned. She was key in getting me through my delivery without any pain medication. Since giving birth, she has checked up on me frequently, answer questions, offered advice, and continued to encourage me. If I had it to do over, I'd pick Cherish every time to walk through this journey with! You won't find better hands to be in.
