I am so thankful for Katherine’s support, emotionally and physically. This was my first baby, and I opted to go to a birthing center. I was very nervous, but Katherine was very encouraging, empathetic, and attentive to my needs. She did a great job of not only educating me before labor, but also making sure she taught my husband how to be a great birth partner, as well as being an advocate for what I wanted during labor. Once I had transitioned I could no longer speak, but she was there reading my body language when I needed counter pressure or to change positions when I was exerting myself too much. It was a tough labor, but Katherine continued to give words of affirmation and encouragement the entire time, and held my hand after the birth when I needed stitches. I recommend her to anyone looking for a doula who is empathetic, encouraging, communicates well, and can read body language. She did everything she could to help make me as comfortable as possible during labor without me having to tell her.
