Testimonial for Scarlett Lynsky
We loved having Scarlett as our doula! We took the evidence based birth class with her virtually during Covid times and her immense knowledge about pregnancy, birth and babies really put us at ease. We knew she would be so helpful and calming during birth! As first time parents, we didn’t initially know what a doula does or why we would need one but once we realized how much support the birthing person needs, it became very clear that a doula would be well worth it - and not just for me but for my husband as well, Scarlett really helped him feel empowered and prepared! Our daughter was breech, we found out at 34 weeks. Scarlett helped us with resources for exercises to try to flip her and we already knew how to do them because we had practiced them with her during our prenatal visit with her, which was super helpful. Baby didn’t flip unfortunately, and we ended up having a cesarean. We were still so thankful to have Scarlett there to keep us both calm prior to the surgery, help us understand what to expect both emotionally and physically, and she was there helping me start breastfeeding right after birth :) She took amazing photos of us all before and after birth which are SO special and she even recorded a very detailed birth story that we are so incredibly thankful for! Scarlett will make you feel prepared and supported during your birth and we can’t recommend her enough!
