We hired Mariah for the delivery of my first baby. I decided to have a doula for the north mainly because my husband worked out of state and I wanted someone who could be my support and strength. I talked and immediately clicked with Mariah. During that first meeting, she patiently listened to me. The main reason I hired Mariah was because she did not judge me or my decisions and was ready to support me as it was. I felt at ease talking to her. She went above and beyond the one hour for the prenatal visit and helped answer all our questions. After that she was ALWAYS available for questions, sometimes even responding at 2 am! When I discussed concerns from my ultrasound she would put my mind at ease with data and research articles. Apart from me, my husband also really appreciated her taking time to answer his questions patiently. Mine ended up being a C-section and Mariah was there with me and my husband in the operation theatre, continuosuly telling me what was happening. Even after the birth, we look to her for help with our questions. Overall, I would highly recommend hiring Mariah as uour doula, her calming influence and confident knowledge will put you at ease during the stressful time of your pregnancy.
