Testimonial for Danielle Randell CD(DONA)
When doing research on what a doula is, I kept coming across the fact that they were often referred to as "birth angels" and now I know why. From the minute I talked to Danielle on the phone for the first time, I knew I was in good hands. Danielle is one of the most warm and caring people in general and she has such a passion and gift for what she does. I was absolutely TERRIFIED for child birth as a first time mom, but the more Danielle educated me and answered all my questions, the more empowered and confident I began to feel. She does an incredible job at learning her clients. She does the work to understand exactly what you and your significant other need from her to have a successful and memorable childbirth experience. I was personally so thankful that she created a safe space for me to ask her any question under the sun at any time of the day to help ease any fears that arose throughout the process. Birthing at home with Danielle was such a peaceful and memorable experince for both my husband and I. We felt so much more calm/confident when we got to the hospital. Hearing her voice and having her coach me and support me during my birth was truly lifesaving. My birth did not go according to my plan, due to complications, I was forced to get an emergency C-section. Danielle did an incredible job at being such a rock for my husband and I and calming our hearts before I went into surgery. After birth, I still have yet to feel alone for one second. Danielle was more than willing to help right away and checked in on me often. I could not and nor would I want to imagine how my birth may have gone without her. She will forever be welcome in our home and when baby number 2 comes, I pray she'd be ready for round 2! :)
