Hunter is an amazing doula! Both my husband and I think so highly of Hunter’s skills and knowledge. She helped us with the birth of our second child in April 2018. We did not have a doula for our first child, so this was a new experience for us. Hunter was very kind and always available to answer my many questions. Particularly important to me, was that I never felt judged for any of the decisions (or non-decisions) I wanted to make. Hunter was there to make sure I had facts and offered her seasoned-opinion in a kind and caring manner.
Hunter was particularly amazing at getting me through the process of laboring at home and I was able to minimize my time laboring at the hospital. My daughter was born within 45 minutes of arriving at the hospital! To be fair, some of that may have been good luck, but I still want to give 100% of the credit to Hunter. At home during my contractions, she encouraged me to use a number of different positions to focus getting through the pain. Changing positions often definitely helped that time go quicker. Also, having a second set of hands (and a spare brain!) allowed my husband to be there for me more fully than he was during our first birth experience.
We will always look back fondly at this entire experience and we are so thankful to have had Hunter as our doula.
