I can not say enough good things about Charity. I sought Doula services because, I was not having a good experience with my Dr and wanted to be sure I had someone knowledgeable present to advocate for me and support me during my birth. After meeting with Charity, I knew I didn’t want anyone else. Not only was she supportive and sweet spirited but she gave me the courage to switch doctors and gave me a list of dr’s to consider. I was able to get switched over and immediately, received better care at my very first visit.
Charity was a great support and resource. As a first time parent she made sure I was equipped with the knowledge to make conscious choices about my birthing experience. She was not only a support for me but my husband as well. Once I started having contractions Charity came to my home and did stretches with me and made sure I got hydrated. She also taught my husband multiple stretches and massages so that he could be a support as well. Once things kicked into high gear at 1am, Charity met us at the hospital. She kept me on a rotation on the peanut ball (don’t worry if you don’t know what this is, she’ll teach you lol) to open my hips. She shared my birth wishes with the staff and she made space for me to change my mind and shared what I’d decided.
I didn’t give birth until 10:36am that day and Charity was attentive and supportive the entire time. She made my birthing space a safe, calm and supportive space for me.
If you’re looking for a Doula, you’re looking for Charity.
