Testimonial for Kate Dewey & Jane Drichta
When I was searching for a Doula, I wasn’t entirely sure what I was looking for since this was my first pregnancy. I met with 2 doulas before I met Kate, and while they were very nice and obviously skilled, the fit wasn’t just right. Then Kate showed up on my doorstep. Immediately, she made me feel like we had been friends our whole lives. She was very easy to talk to, and I felt very comfortable sharing this vulnerable yet amazing part of my life with her. It was important to me to choose a doula that I would have no reservations about having in my labor and delivery room. She is not only very professional and very good at what she does, but she is also extremely caring, compassionate, comforting and encouraging. I completely trusted her judgment, and she trusted me to know my body so that I could express my needs and have them met. I had a very long and challenging labor, completely with very painful back labor. Kate’s suggestions for position changes and pain-relief measures were very effective and helped me progress well. I firmly believe I would have ended up with a c-section if it weren’t for her support. It is obvious that Kate knows her stuff, and she loves what she does. Kate was (and is) the one. I would choose her again in a heartbeat for future pregnancy(ies).
