Testimonial for Nicole Bengtson CD(DONA),certified BRM® pro,HypnoBirthing

My husband and I hired Nicole for the birth of our first child Harper, who was born this May, 2019. Being a mother is something I really wanted but had a lot of fear relating to pregnancy and specifically labor which is what led us to hire a doula. Nicole’s attitude and demeanor was so positive and she had so much knowledge to offer that from the moment we first met with her it was not even a question - we wanted her to be a part of our experience. 

I really believe that education on a subject can help reduce fear and Nicole gave such an abundance of that - she also provided a scenario in which I did not have to scour the internet for hours looking for reliable sources and information. For me this also prevented going down the Google wormhole! 

When I was nearing the end of the pregnancy she was so attentive to check in and provide exercises for the discomfort and essential  oils for the anxiety. When my water broke, within 5 minutes contractions were about a minute and a half apart. We weren’t expecting the rush to get to the hospital. And having Nicole there to remind us of what to grab and to help me though each contraction was incredibly helpful. 

At the hospital Nicole was such a support, providing water, cold washcloths, essential oils and massage just to name a few things. 

I had focused so much on labor and delivery that I didn’t think much about postpartum recovery which was so much more difficult than I anticipated. Nicole was an incredible support through this time as well for both me and baby. 

I can’t say enough positive things about having Nicole be a part of our experience. I can’t imagine doing it without her and if we have subsequent pregnancies will absolutely ask her to be a part of it with us. She was an amazing support and made a labor that was really difficult a manageable and a positive experience.
