Testimonial for Tabare Depaep, J.D., Esq., HCHD
Our daughter is 14 months now and we still can’t get over our experience. Taba's an amazing individual with such incredible energy and spirit. A first-rate doula. She’s extremely passionate about what she does and has so much fun with it. Taba was a critical factor in helping my husband and I achieve the natural birth we hoped to have. Of course, you can’t control what happens in any birth and we were very fortunate to have had a complication free labor and delivery. But I truly think that a number of possible unwanted scenarios were avoided because of Taba’s knowledge, advice and support. In addition to her obvious knowledge and professionalism, Taba’s sassy, fun and REAL personality was exactly what sealed the deal. Since it was our first child, meeting with her before the birth gave us a grip on what to anticipate, as well as discuss the various ways we could work effectively together as a “birth team.” For my husband, it was invaluable for him to have someone who not only supported me in what I needed, but who also guided him in ways that allowed him to be more involved and supportive way beyond verbal encouragement. I could go on about the blessing and source of great strength Taba was for us-from cheerfully showing up at our house at 3:30am, loaded with her “bag of tricks”; laughing with us until I couldn’t physically laugh anymore; her CONTINUED calm and sunny disposition that keep me going as I was losing my head in the thick of it all; her surprise slideshow that captured the moments we never knew she captured, which had us in tears all over again; being the breastfeeding support champ of the world, showing up the same day I called (more than once) and spending hours with me in order to physically help me work through breastfeeding issues; to her continual, happy-to-help support when I called in need. We're so thankful to her for everything she’s done for us.
