Testimonial for Joyce Dykema, MS, CD(DONA), HCHD
When we found out we were pregnant my husband and I did not know much about Doula services. When we met Joyce and knew we wanted her to be a part of our birth experience.
During pregnancy Joyce was always available by phone and email for questions and new mom concerns. She had many useful tools and knowledge for during pregnancy. We enjoyed her Savvy Birth 101 class. Joyce walked us through what to expect during pregnancy and labor. We took full advantage of Joyce's registry system. Our family was so happy to be able to put toward something so important to us.
Joyce was very prompt when we called her to join us at the hospital. She was with us for over 30 hours of our long labor and birth. She was a key part of my birth team and helped me through hard decisions. Joyce was wonderful about predicting my needs and keeping me positive. We had to make alterations to our birth plan and Joyce was instrumental in helping us come up with the best decisions along the way. We appreciated her diligent note taking.
Postpartum, Joyce was wonderful about checking in and making sure our new family was happy and healthy. When an issue would arise she was quick to give feedback and support. I don't even want to imagine how our birth would have been without Joyce. She gave us much needed love, support, and tools to guide us into parenthood.
