First time mom here. My husband and I hired Danielle early in our pregnancy as we had heard of the benefits of having a doula and wanted to pursue a natural birth. Fast forward to our birth month, and things were not going as planned. We found ourselves with a breech baby and likely c-section delivery during the COVID-19 crisis, which meant we were not going to be able to have Danielle at the hospital for our baby girl's birth day. Danielle was communicative and responsive leading up to our scheduled delivery date, providing resources like positions to help baby to turn head-down and options for us to consider for delivery of our breech babe. Ultimately, we decided on a c-section and were not able to have Danielle there for delivery, but Danielle's warm, caring, calm energy was really valuable leading up to birth day and the weeks after delivery where Danielle visited us at our home to provide post-partum support. She was quick to connect us with other professionals, such as a lactation consultant to help us in the breastfeeding journey and provided information to support our decision making.
