Testimonial for Daniella Nowicki
Words fall short in expressing how thankful I am to have had Daniella as my doula. She was everything I needed to make the birth of my son the most magical and empowering day of my life. I met Daniella through a community event and knew right away that her bright energy was exactly what I needed. Daniella was born to do this work and her positivity is beyond infectious. Daniella met with my husband and I in our home multiple times before my due date and postpartum--every visit was educational and gave us time to talk about our expectations/anxieties and how to deal with them. She was completely present and so attentive to our every question/concern--she made us feel like we were the most important thing going on in her day. I had trouble with anxiety throughout my pregnancy and Daniella helped me come up with some coping strategies and relaxation exercises. I was induced a week after my due date, and although I didn't go into spontaneous labor, I was determined to still have a natural birth. Daniella was by my side every moment during my labor. She was my coach and a pillar of calm reassurance for my husband and I. My husband lovingly called her our birth sherpa and he was right. During labor, she literally anticipated my every need whether I needed to change positions, a drink of water, or some extra words of encouragement. Her ability to do this so seamlessly is remarkable. Daniella's interaction with our care team was incredible. I had MULTIPLE people at the hospital come up to me to tell me WONDERFUL she was to work with. And she was :) She is a true professional. My son's birth would have been beautiful no matter what, but had we not had Daniella with us, I don't think I would have ended up with a natural birth. It would have been different, and I am so grateful things went the way they did. As first time parents, we didn't know what to expect during this amazing journey, but hiring Daniella was the best thing we did for ourselves.
