Testimonial for Kim Turton Palmatary
Fantastic. Kim has been my doula for both of my pregnancies - my first pregnancy I met her on a Wednesday night. That next morning (contractions started at 1am) I had my baby. During the first, she was amazing with my husband. I barely noticed her there because she was coaching my husband to be right there for me (which was amazing! my memories from that birth are so sweet because I can still hear my husband coaching me to breath or to relax, etc). She got him ice when he was flush and feeling funny. During the second birth, it was SO fast we were only together for 15 minutes (of horrible pain) until my daughter was born. She was great, relaxing me and letting me know I was okay. She stayed with us until we were comfortable. She was a great doula, always very easy to get a hold of and responded to my messages immediately (even at 5 in the morning!). I felt like I was her only client which I know is definitely not true.
I highly recommend Kim. She is very sweet and relaxing. She encouraged me and really felt like our support net. Always there, just in case. Always supportive and had great ideas during labour/birth. She really looked after my husband and I. As a fantastic bonus, she took great photos that I will forever cherish. I didn't think I wanted pictures until she showed me them. :-)
