Testimonial for Alyson Mancini CD(DONA), BA Birth/Newborn Photographer
Giving birth is both physically and emotionally challenging, nonetheless a very special one experience especially with the right support team. I am glad Alyson was a part of my team! From the first time my husband and I met her to the wee morning hours after giving birth, she provided the kind, confident and encouraging support my husband and I needed from a doula. I was induced at 39 weeks and it took 2 days before the baby arrived! Alyson stayed with us through the entire time. She also helped create a calming environment in the otherwise very clinical delivery room by bringing string lights and aromatherapy oils/diffuser. She teamed up with my husband to help me with stretches/walks and needed counter pressures during all types of contractions. Most importantly, Alyson helped me work-up the much needed courage and mental strength so that I can go through with my desired birth plan. The “cherries on top” are the photos Alyson took and the delicious choo choo lactation cookies ??. Thank you for all you did for me and my family, Alyson! We will never forget this experience with you.
