Testimonial for Amanda Clarke-Ray M.Ed., CD(DONA)
We were on the fence about hiring a doula to begin with, but decided to explore and meet a few. After meeting Amanda, we knew she was the best fit to support us through this major event. Amanda is confident, calm, knowledgable, and supportive. We were so happy to have her guidance throughout the end of pregnancy, during delivery, and after our babe arrived. Amanda came to our house for two seperate meetings before birth to discuss birth preferences and options, provide information, listen and encourage. During the birth she worked seamlessly with the nurses and doctors, speaking up at the appropriate times when we were faced with decisions or options, and never leaving our side. It was so comforting to know she was there for us during our entire birth. Afterwards, she came to visit two times to check-in. All along the way she was responsive via text messages, offering resources and references when needed. If you're on the fence about hiring a doula, I'd say to just go meet with Amanda, hear about her approach. You won't regret your decision and you'll find that she is the person you'd like in your corner during birth!! We feel very fortunate to have had her guidance and support!
