I interviewed a few Doulas in my area prior to selecting Rebecca. When we met we clicked immediately. She was kind, caring, listened to all my concern, and answered and provided science based evidence to my questions. Rebecca was available by email, text, and phone from the time we hired her. I had a few questions during my pregnancy and she helped me along the way. She was always there.
I wanted a doula for several reasons as this was our first child and I wanted my husband to feel supported in his role as well and Rebecca did just that for him. She helped the both of us and was exactly the person we both needed. When it came time for plans to change and go the unexpected route for delivery after a very long labor, I needed her to support my husband thru a c-section as he isn’t good with hospitals, blood, and anything like that. It was very important to me that she be in the OR with us.
Rebecca helped me feel empowered while making decisions and helped me talk thru all the sides of the decisions I was making. At times when you need to know all sides she plays the devils advocate to make sure you think of all your options which was very helpful when going down a road you didn’t plan for. I am thankful she was there thru it all the good, and the bad I couldn’t have gotten thru 40 hours of labor to need a c section without her there with us by our side.
Rebecca also was our birth photographer on top of everything else. The memories she captured are truly amazing and something I will always cherish.
We will definitely use Rebecca again for our next birth as well and to once again capture the beautitular memories of bringing our babe into the world. Don’t hesitate to hire her! She becomes a part of your family and we love her!
