I had not previously considered hiring a doula until my midwife suggested it. Once I did some research on doulas, it was an easy decision to go ahead and find one. Not only is the rate of intervention lower with a doula but also many women claim that the whole labour and birthing process is much less stressful and painful. That certainly sounded like a good investment to me! We met with Renee based on a recommendation and her experience, and felt very comfortable right off the bat. During my labour, it was invaluable having someone there to reassure and guide my husband and I, especially since my labour was very long and atypical. She provided many tips and tricks, encouragement, breathing guidance, and postures we had not learned in our prenatal classes which helped ease me through the pain of contractions. She was a calm, strong and reassuring presence and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a doula.
