My husband and I are so glad we chose Sharea as our doula! She is absolutely wonderful at what she does and helped us in countless, priceless ways. As a first-time mom, I was on an emotional rollercoaster, but during our prenatal visits, Sharea was able to encourage me and keep me grounded. I loved her positive, friendly, and easy-to-talk-to personality and all of the helpful information she shared that boosted my confidence going into birth. She was quick to reply to texts and emails answering random questions I had during my pregnancy, and I always felt like I had her as a resource to lean on. She was also 100% comfortable with our cat and two big, playful dogs! When labor began at home, it gave me such peace of mind having someone there with so much birth experience helping me work through contractions. I wanted my husband to be my primary support, and Sharea was the perfect complement and help for both of us. If my husband needed to step away, Sharea was there to support me. My labor ended up being a long, slow-to-progress labor and she supported me throughout the marathon event, smiling and staying positive the entire time. She was integral to helping me work through contractions on my exercise ball so that I could finally make it to full dilation. In all types of birth I experienced, from natural at home and at the Birth Cottage, to an unexpected transfer to the hospital for a cesarean, I’m so glad we had Sharea there by our side, offering her encouragement, experience, and support. We highly recommend Sharea and would choose her again as our doula in a heartbeat!
