Cheryl was our doula for the birth of our son in 2012. Although he was our second child and I knew more about what to expect this time (our first had been born in a different city, with a different doula) I knew from having a doula the first go-around that it was essential for supporting my labor. Cheryl was attentive throughout the pregnancy, staying in touch and being a calm presence as the end neared. She was knowledgable, supportive, warm and caring. She was much like a friend who I could gripe to about the aches and pains of late pregnancy, and who also kept me calm and clear, focused on the big picture and always affirming my strength and ability to push this baby out! When the day came, it was much faster than it had been for my first child - a fast and furious labor. She was there with calm words, positive affirmation and firm support. She was just the cheerleader I needed to make it across the finish line. As painful as it was, I'm so thankful for how my son's birth went, with Cheryl's help.
