Testimonial for Melissa Johnson VIRTUAL AND IN PERSON SUPPORT

I could not have been happier with the choice we made to get a Doula, and the choice we made with asking Melissa to be our Doula. The birth of our first child was not normal by any means, and could have been so much better. We wanted to avoid as many problems as possiable, and wanted the peace of mind that someone would be there to help guide us in meaningful ways.

When we first met with Melissa she helped my Wife develop a pain management plan with a few different options just incase one didnt work. Melissa also worked with me on pain relive methods that I could use to help my Wife with. After the meeting we felt a lot better about everything , and I felt very confident that I could help my Wife more than ever througout the birth.

When my Wife started labor we had no idea just how much of a long haul it would be. Nearly four days of contractions that never seemed to steady or even out. Melissa had no trouble coming by our home a few times to show me some additional ways I could help my Wife through the contractions, and showed my Wife some positions she could use to help get more rest. After nearly two days of my Wife not being able to sleep Melissa really came throug for us and helped my Wife get the sleep she desierved.

During my Wife’s active labor Melissa was an absolute blessing for us. At times I was a little unsure how to help my amazing Wife, but Melissa knew exactly when to step in to help and when to let me be there for my Wife.

I was so thankful for everything Melissa did for us. After the birth she continued to be a wonderful help, and gave my us some great tips to make sure my Wife’s recovery from labor was a success. I know my Wife and I could not have made a better choice in asking Melissa to be our Doula, and if we decide to have another child, I know we will ask her do be our Doula again.
