Testimonial for Caellyn Everson, CD(DONA)
Our experience with Caellyn was phenomenal and exceeded our expecations. We had interviewed a few doulas and immediately knew Caellyn was right for us with her warm, relaxed and nurturing sensibility. Leading up to labor she was very communicative and attentive, with a few home visits, and a visit with us to meet our midwife. She provided us with a bunch of resources, things to think about, and ways to get our minds right for the birth. And it really paid off. But what makes Caellyn so special is her work during labor. She was a rock for us, was there all day and night, going above and beyond with breathing techniques, massage, position changes, TENS unit, and keeping us fed and hydrated. When the going got tough she helped us find our rhythm and breathing and really was a huge factor in a healthy childbirth. Even after the 21 hour labor she helped us get setteld in, cleaned up the house and even made placenta prints for us. Throughout the whole experience she was capturing photos as well.
In the days leading up to the birth we were debating not calling the doula because we like our privacy, but I cant imagine getting through it without Caellyn. She integrated really well with our midwives, and we wouldnt have changed a thing about our team. I would absolutely recommend Caellyn to anyone who wants a warm, knowledgable, confident and loving professional by your side during labor. The investment paid itself off many times over. She was there for our little girls first moments in the world and is now part of our family.
