Testimonial for Zen Holmes, CD(DONA), LMT

Zen was wonderful from the start.  She helped my husband and me in thinking through our birth plan and what we really wanted.  She was thoughtful, informed and completely non-judgmental of any decision or thoughts we had.  I felt comfortable and safe with her.  Her pre-birth in-home services - pre-natal yoga and massage - were both amazing and were a great opportunity for us to develop rapport before labor.  While no part of the labor experience went "as planned," Zen was consistent throughtout the process in keeping me calm, massaging me, and using lavender and music to keep the room as tranquil as possible.  Perhaps as important as supporting me, she was also supportive of my husband and my sister who were in the birth room - leading by example, giving them ideas of what to do/how to help and providing a calming presence in the tense moments.  When "medical jargon" was being used by doctors or my husband and I weren't sure about decisions being made, Zen was always the person to ask questions to the doctors and ensure we were kept in the loop.  After my daughter was born, she also followed up with an in home visit to check on how everything was going.  We'll forever be thankful for Zen and couldn't recommend her more!
