Testimonial for Emerald Doulas
I cannot say enough wonderful things about our doulas from Emerald Doulas. Having Kallyn and Melanie support my partner and me from pregnancy to postpartum was truly such a gift, and a critical part of our birth experience. I loved the doula team approach, which ensured that we could always reach one of them (and often both of them) with questions or concerns whenever we needed. They both provided so much emotional support in the weeks leading up to our daughter’s birth, and Melanie was a tireless champion and calming presence during our long labor and delivery. She was truly there for both me as the birthing person and my partner, which allowed me to just focus on doing what my body needed to do. She collaborated perfectly with the medical staff and also helped advocate for me to ensure that I had the best experience possible. Her confidence in me and my body’s process never wavered, even when I had doubts and fears, and that calm energy and comforting touch was exactly what I needed to make it through. Even after our daughter’s birth, we stayed in close communication with our doulas and enjoyed a wonderful visit at home a few days later. We will forever treasure the love and support they provided for us, and consider them to be such an integral part of our family’s new beginning!
