Testimonial for Mychal Shifrah
Mychal was everything we hoped we would find in a doula and more!! I wasn’t sure if a doula was for me as I wanted to have a hospital birth and knew I wanted an epidural (although she is perfect if that isn’t your preference too). I was concerned that many doulas were better suited for mom’s looking to feel the pain and was worried about being judged or persuaded about my birth preferences. Mychal made me (and my husband) so comfortable from the moment we met her at our home. She felt absolutely right to have at our son’s birth. Mychal was a wonderful advocate at the hospital, kept our delivery room super zen until it was time to push, and was an amazing team player with the nurses. She worked with the nurse to do several positions to help with delivery after I received my epidural. If you are looking for a doula who is caring, warm, assertive, but not pushy, and a wonderful listener, Mychal is your person. She was a major part of how wonderful my son’s delivery went and even came to visit us the next day! A huge (and priceless) bonus were the tons of photos she was able to grab right after he was delivered allowing us to be present in the moment then and remember that magical time now. Trust me, I’ll be calling her when it’s time for round 2 :)
