Testimonial for Ariel Ward

My hushand and I chose to have a doula at our birth because we wanted to be informed and to feel supported on the day-of with a small birth team. When Ariel came to our home for an initial meet-and-greet I knew right away that she was the person I wanted at our birth. Her loving, down-to-earth presence made me feel connected to her right away. Her background in sport and innate knowledge of the body was a bonus!

The pre-birth sessions were super informative and she shared interesting and relevant resources with us along the way. I also appreciated her sharing some of her first hand experience (being a mama of 3!). Because I trusted her knowledge of birth, I felt more comforable trusting the process when the time came. She offered gentle encouragement and held space for me as I laboured through the night and I delivered our baby at home without pain medication (which it what I really wished for). 

After the birth she made herself available and even dropped off a beautiful gift for my first Mother's Day! I think about my birth, and therefore Ariel every day and I'm so grateful she has chosen to be a doula. Can't recommend her enough!
