Testimonial for Elise Benoit
I am so thankful Elise was our doula during the birth of our first-born! We enjoyed the prenatal visits so we could get to know each other and to discuss what our birth plan and desires were. She was very thorough and provided us with a ton of great resources so we could make informed decisions. When I went into labor, she consistently checked in on us to help us decide when the time was right to call our midwife.
During the labor and delivery she was so calming, dedicated, thoughtful, and encouraging. She knew exactly what I needed and took such good care of my husband and myself the entire time. She kept checking on my husband to make sure he remembered to eat, gave me counter-pressure during the contractions, kept my wash cloth cool, offered wonderful words of encouragement, and so much more. It was such a relief to have her with us so I could focus on staying relaxed and not have to worry about anything else. After the birth, she came to our house to check on us to make sure we were doing well, not only physically but also emotionally. She has been an awesome resource of knowledge and encouragement and I am so glad she was our doula. I am very thankful to have had a beautiful natural birth that I am so proud of, and I know that Elise was a large part of making that possible. Thank you for being such a wonderful doula, Elise!
