Testimonial for Joyce Havinga-Droop CD(DONA), CLC, SpBCPE, BRM Pro
Joyce was my birth doula for my first pregnancy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Even though doulas were not allowed in the hospital at the time I gave birth, my husband and I still feel so lucky and thankful that Joyce was there to support us and guide us throughout my pregnancy.
I was having a lot of anxiety with the increased risk and uncertainty during the pandemic. Joyce was able to get the latest information from her doula network. She also held weekly virtual support groups where I could learn from other expecting/new moms. I felt a lot more informed and less overwhelmed thanks to Joyce.
Joyce is very knowledgeable, loving and calming. She was always very fast to respond whenever I had questions. She helped us to make educated decisions every step of the way. Under her guide, my baby got in a very ideal position for birth and my labor went fast and smoothly. I spent most of my labor at home with Joyce as I wished, and my baby was born only one hour after we got to the hospital. After my baby was born, Joyce was still very helpful and gave me a lot of advice on healing and breastfeeding.
We would highly recommend Joyce to any expecting parents that are considering to hire a doula.
