Testimonial for Daisy Mason from Jessica

Testimonial for Daisy Mason

Daisy was absolutely incredible and everything I could have ever hoped for in a Doula. I had initially debated whether I really wanted / needed to hire a Doula as part of my birthing experience, but after initially meeting Daisy I knew that having a Doula and specifically working with Daisy was the best path for me.

During our initial pre-birth meetings my husband and I got to know Daisy and were encouraged by how open and supportive she was to helping guide us through our birth choices. Also, while she was extremely knowledgeable about a variety of birthing options, she never pushed us down any particular path, but instead identified pros and cons based on her experience.

While our initial time with Daisy was very helpful, it was during the actual birthing process that she really came through and was indispensable. This was my first child so everything was new to me and her birth was not particularly easy, over 24 hours in labor. Daisy was with my husband and I during this whole time and I swear I think she may have been some sort of Doula Mary Poppins. She had absolutely everything I needed to help calm me and support me through the birth. This ranged from something as simple as a straw to help me drink water (I was so thirsty) to essential oils ready to go for a foot massage.

When it came time to push and actually deliver my daughter the primary doctor on hand was one that I did not agree with or feel comfortable around based on my interactions with him from the previous night. Daisy knew this and made sure another doctor was the one in the room to deliver my baby to help ensure the best possible environment. Plus, during the delivery Daisy was right by my side assisting both me and the doctors helping guarantee the best possible delivery experience.

Daisy was fantastic and I cannot imagine having delivered my baby without her support and am truly grateful that she was with me for this experience.
