Testimonial for Cathy (Cat) Gomez
In a life time, if you’re lucky, you will encounter a few very special people who changed your life forever. Cat is that special person for us. Our bond with Cat started from very beginning on our first interview with her. We stopped interviewing other doulas right after meeting Cat, since we knew Cat would be one to help us with the birth of our daughter. My husband and I wanted an intervention free birth and although we ended with anything but a natural birth due to complications beyond anything we could have prepared for, we could never imagine how we could have gotten through it all without Cat’s guidance and support. Her incredibly sweet, thoughtful, generous and kind nature helped propelled us through quite a traumatic birth and gave us so much courage that we felt as though we could conquer anything that come our way. Since this is our first birth, my husband and I had many fears about the birth process and outcome given the unknown territory. Cat was there at the very beginning to ease any fear. Not only that, she empowered us with many tools, particularly for my husband, to support me to manage the pain. She also taught us mindfulness skills to help us become mindful parents, which is an incredible gift to our daughter. Cat has gone above and beyond her role as a doula and was there for us from the very beginning, for all of nearly 40 hours of labor. No words could express how grateful we are for all Cat has done for us and for that we are forever indebted to her. Any expecting couple is lucky to have Cat as their doula.
