I hired a doula with one goal in mind: a natural, unmedicated birth. I specifically wanted assistance with pain management during labor and an experienced, trained female companion that could assist my husband and I in achieving the birth that we desired. Natasha was amazing and did all of this plus more for us! Natasha has an incredibly kind, peaceful, and caring spirit. Our son came five weeks early but she was by our side as soon as we told her that I was in labor. She was patient, encouraging, resourceful, and a strong advocate for me with the delivery staff and also the NICU staff, always ensuring my comfort and making that her top priority. She worked closely with my husband to help manage my pain, showing him ways he could help and teaming up with him to help manage my pain together. We were not able to meet with her prior to the birth due to our son's early arrival, but that did not impact her level of care for us, attentiveness to us and our birth goals, or her camaraderie with my husband as a part of my birth "team." She was indispensable to me during the birth and I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again as my doula. Thank you, Natasha!
