Testimonial for Laura Griffis, Certified BRM® Pro and Spinning Babies®

Laura was a true Godsend to our family! Being new to Minnesota and expecting for the first time, my husband and I decided a doula would be helpful. We had no idea what a blessing we would find in Laura! Upon meeting her, she was very professional, but with a warm demeanor. She answered every question I had without me having to ask. We quickly developed a close relationship with Laura during our prenatal visits and she brought about a calm, reassuring spirit as we discussed our upcoming delivery. She offered many tips and exercises to prepare us for the big event.  My delivery experience was nothing near what I had imagined. I never dilated and therefore, an induction was necessary after two days of laboring. Laura was right there by my side, rubbing my back continuously as my back labor intensified. She was also there for my husband making sure he was comforted and understood what was happening. She gave he and my mother a chance to take breaks and leave my room knowing I wasn't alone. She was a perfect match for us and our situation. She knew what to do and when to do it, what to say and when to say it.  Her compassion will be forever etched in my heart as they told me a c-section was needed and she comforted me calmly, but very assertively that I would be okay and talked me through the emotions at that moment. I fully trusted her and she saw every raw emotion that came with my entire prenatal through postpartum journey. After delivery, my milk supply never fully came in and she was once again a positive encouragement as I struggled with the reality of not being able to breastfeed. Laura's passion and knowledge as a doula was proven over and over again during the time she met with us both in person and via phone. If it becomes our decision to continue to grow our family further, I would be honored if Laura would be our doula once again. She will always hold a special place as part of our family! If a doula is your desire, Laura would be my pick!
