We had the privilege of having Emily as our doula for our first baby, and she was such a helpful addition to our birthing experience that I knew I wanted her again for our second baby! My husband agreed. Just like last time, she was instrumental in providing encouraging words and continuous support to help me achieve the birth I hoped for.
She was just as warm, friendly, and supportive as she had been the first time around. Although we hadn't seen her in almost two years, we immediately felt comfortable with her. She tailored our pre-delivery visit to meet our needs and answered all my questions. In the weeks leading up to the due date, she was thoughtful and encouraging. She showed up at the hospital exactly when we asked her to, and her presence provided a welcome, extra layer of support. In the early morning, she walked the halls with me so my husband could get some sleep. She is a great conversationalist and helped the hours of labor pass by faster. In even the smallest details, like holding the handheld fan where it felt most comfortable for me and fixing my bed so it was neat and inviting, Emily was very thoughtful.
She also took some beautiful photos that we will treasure forever. I'm so happy Emily was with us during these special moments of our lives!
