Testimonial for Christine Potter
Using Christine as my doula was the best decision! Christine came and met with me in my home to get an idea for what my goals were, what I thought would and wouldn't work, and to talk about my past birth experiences. We came up with my birth plan and how I thought she could best help me during the process. It is very apparent that she cares about you and your baby, and wants to make the birth process a positive experience. Every meeting and encounter I had with Christine before and after deliver was filled with compassion, knowledge and care. Christine is like the Fairy Godmother that you always wish for, but never knew you could have.
The day of my labor and delivery, Christine showed up with her Mary Poppins bag full of labor and delivery essentials that would help calm my mind and body. She got right to work setting everything up and making sure I was comfortable. She met the nurses and midwife on call, and quickly established a relationship with them. Its was very apparent from the beginning that Christine was the calming force in the room. Christine worked tirelessly to make sure that I was mentally and emotionally in the right place for each contraction. That being said, she made sure that my husband was at the forefront, assisting me and helping me through each contraction. She was able to guide him on how to best support me, which was good for both of us! After the delivery, Christine stayed close by, but in the background to make sure we had our privacy, but also there to offer support as needed. Post delivery, I had some severe medical complications that required all medical staff to assist me. Christine quietly stayed by the baby making sure that she was okay. I really can't say enough good about this wonderful woman and her ability to care with compassion, knowledge and experience. Christine truly has a gift that makes her the quintessential doula.
