Hiring Shannon as our doula was the best decision we made with this pregnancy! After a long labor with our first child that ended with an epidural and forceps, I was on a mission to have an epidural free birth (and was hoping to make it much shorter as well). I knew my husband needed someone there to help him help me get through birth without an epidural and I am so glad we added Shannon to our team to do exactly that. Shannon helped us accomplish our goals with ease—an epidural free birth and a much shorter labor!
She listened to our wants and needs so that she could provide the support that WE wanted during the birth experience. The moment she joined us during labor she stepped in and provided EXACTLY what I needed to get me through—without me and my husband even knowing what that was! She is amazing at observing the situation and jumping in without hesitation to provide the support and comfort needed!
This labor was a piece of cake compared to our first and we credit that completely to Shannon’s recommendations, support during labor, and encouragement throughout the whole process. We will hire her again in a heartbeat if we have another kiddo!
