Testimonial for Sharea Jenkins CD(DONA),CLC
When Sharea walked into my delivery room it felt like everything was going to be okay. Her calm, reassuring, non-judgmental presence encouraged the confidence in me to have an unmedicated childbirth. She helped me to take control of my birth process and encouraged strength in me that I did not know I had. I call her my delivery angel. I would recommend her to any couple going through the delivery process but especially to first time parents!
Sharea’s excellent communication skills came through during labor and delivery, working seamlessly with both my husband and I. My baby was delivered during the Covid-19 pandemic in July 2020, when only one person was allowed in the delivery room. This meant she had to swap in and out of the room with my husband during the delivery process. Sharea found a way to flawlessly multi-task coaching my delivery while calling and Face Timing with my husband to make sure he felt included. When the time came, she made sure my husband was back in the room for the birth.
Sharea not only helped my husband and I through labor and delivery but through the entirety of the pregnancy process: from our pre-baby anxieties to tough choices when complications arose and both post-partum and lactation support. Sharea even made an extra trip post-partum to triage to pick up breast milk to take to my husband at home! She is truly worth her weight in gold and then some.
