Testimonial for Maggie Gott (Watkins)
We are beyond grateful for Maggie, I don’t even know where to begin with how amazing she was throughout my pregnancy, labor and post partum. She was a constant support system and calming presence for us when we had none. When the pandemic hit and it was clear that the hospital restrictions would complicate things, my anxiety sky rocketed. But, Maggie knew exactly how to help us adjust and feel safe. Not only were we able to switch to having her as a virtual doula but when our birthing classes were canceled we took her virtual classes. Her passion and dedication to helping expectant moms truly shows in her genuine approach. She was kind, informative and always answered whatever questions that came up. Between Covid and the fact that both our families live out of state, we were very overwhelmed and having a rough start when our lil girl arrived. Maggie went above and beyond her role making sure we talked every week, helping us trouble shoot issues and making us feel a little less crazy those early weeks. I honestly think I would have spiraled as a new mom in a pandemic without her support. Our beautiful girl is 8 weeks and we feel so much more confident and capable, which has everything to do with Maggie and how wonderful she was. We would recommend Maggie again and again to anyone looking for a Doula on their birth journey.
