Testimonial for Vickie Fernandez Wint
Vickie was indespensable to me as my doula and I am so thankful to have had her with me during my pregnancy, labor, and delivery. She was a vital source of emotional stability and knowledge that alleviated so much of the stress and fear I experienced while preparing for the birth of my first child. Vickie was kind and easy to talk to; even if I myself was embarrassed to bring up a question I had, she would always answer it kindly and without judgement. Vickie worked extremely well with the hospital staff, and did so while even defending my descision to having a natural birth while doctors tried to push for inducing my labor. I honestly believe Vickie's presence and skill as a doula made my whole labor experience less stressful and (because of Vickie) one of the most memorable moments that I could have asked for. Without her I would have had to go 18+ hours without eating anything but ice chips! I will forever be grateful for those crackers and cheese Vickie brought me.Then as soon as my contractions became stronger and closer together, Vickie did everything in her power to keep me comfortable and focused. The breathing techniques she showed me worked wonders for getting through each contraction,( and keeping me focused on not getting an eipdural) as well as the different laboring positions. Finally when I was in active labor, Vickie was right by my side, continously giving me confidence and telling me when to push and when to relax. She helped me not feel discouraged and gave me the confidence to keep pushing! All in all, hiring Vickie as my doula was the best descision I could have made. I would highly recommend Vickie to any expectant mother. She is extremely passionate about what she does, and makes it her goal to support you and your partner through your entire pregnancy, labor, and delivery.
