When we first started to think about birth my husband and I thought that between the 2 of us we were fully capable of handling the demands of labor. After we went to our first birthing class it quickly became clear that we needed a coach; a doula that could help us with the emotional and physical needs of labor. I found Britney through a happy accident; she was working for Swedish Doulas when I happened to call and from our simple phone conversation I knew she would be the doula to help us with our birth journey.
She met with us several times before our due date and showed us different positions to manage the pain of labor. She worked with myself and my husband to develeop some techniques to focus ourselves when labor came. She also walked us through how we would communicate and handle life as parents. She was fabulous and made me feel that I was more capable and strong than I might have imagined.
Unfortunately, due to timing, she was not able to be with us at the birth (our baby was overdue and she was out of the country). She arranged for a back up doula that was amazing as well. We were so bummed that Britney could not be with us when our son arrived. She has such great energy and a sweet, calming voice. She called us as soon as she got back in the country and set up a post-partum appointment. We felt very supported by her.
I highly recommend Britney for their doula!
