Testimonial for Joanna Guzman
I connected with Joanna during the second half of my pregnancy. I wanted someone to be there for me, because though this was my 4th birth, each was a completely different experience and the last had been traumatic and natural. Most thought I was crazy for wanting to go natural again, but Joanna was on board with my plan from our first meeting and made sure I was well informed about all of my choices and rights. She visited more often than she had to each time bringing something new to show or give me. At the time I attended a lot of birth related functions and often ran into Joanna working. She was just as loving with others as she was with me.
During my labor Joanna stayed by my side and was quick in action with pain management. At the hospital she was right by my side helping me to control myself in a moment where I felt so out of control. After delivery, again she came bearing gifts and a home cooked meal which was most definitely in order. It was absolutely delicious btw. During the time we spent together we found out we had so much in common and she took the time to build a relationship with each of my kids.
I would recommend Joanna to any expectant mother for both doula and postpartum care. In the end she’ll feel more like family, and that’s the kind of care a mother needs.
