Testimonial for Joyce Havinga-Droop CD(DONA), CLC, SpBCPE, BRM Pro
I will never forget Joyce and her wonderful, positive contributions to my growing family.
I hired Joyce as my doula at 35 weeks with my second child because I was hoping to have an unmedicated vbac in a hospital setting and I didn't feel supported by my OB. I was feeling overwhelmed and fearful before our first meeting. Joyce was warm and reassuring and I felt comfortable with her from our first email exchange. In our first meeting, she gave me the information, statistics, resources, and most importantly, the confidence, to trust my body. She guided me in moments of doubt before and during labor. Without her experience and care, I would not have had the positive birth experience I was so wanting.
Since the birth of my beautiful son, I have felt so happy. I love my body for what it has done. In our postpartum visits, Joyce has taught me how to rest, bond with my baby, and heal. I attribute her advice to my health and wellness today. I have also learned how to ask for help and advocate for myself. I hear Joyce's voice in my head sometimes - and she's always cheering me on and giving me good advice. I would recommend her to anyone! She's a beautiful person, she loves what she does, and she is very good at it!
