I can not say enough beautiful things about MaryBeth. I am so gratful to have found her. From the very first phone call, I could tell that having a doula was what I needed. However, I did not know how much I truely would appreciate making that decsion for myself. I had my first baby 20 days ago. I did not know what little 'true support' i would recieve throughout this process. You have to think, your OBGYN/midwife office is busy and have a ton of pregnant patients at once, they can't really be available to you every step of the way nor could my family support me in this process the way I wanted to be supported. MaryBeth supported me in how I planned to give birth and gave me so much advice throughout the process to support MY goals. As a first time mom, I didn't realize how many choices I had when i came to giving birth, MaryBeth gave me those choices and created a customized birthplan for me. Not only that, she educated me on what is done today and why things are recommended and why not. It is easy to be influced by friends and family that had babies 20-30 years ago... things now are much different, and having a doula allows you to learn what your choices are to make a difference in your exerience. MaryBeth coached me through the labor process, answered my text messages at 2:30am and reassured me that my intution is right. My birth didn't go as planned, however, MaryBeth made it truely special. She helped me get through the hurdle of a changed birth plan and supported myself and my husband through some uncharted territory. The experience, expertise, knowlege, and kind heart MaryBeth showed me throughout my experience made my experience one to talk about. I felt prepared, empowered, and supported as a first time mom. It was incredible. If you want a positive birth experience filled with love, strength, independence, and confidence.. hire MaryBeth to be your doula. MaryBeth, Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
