I will be forever grateful to Melissa for being our amazing doula! We hired a doula for our second baby after a disappointing experience with our first birth. Melissa's company, North Dallas Doula Associates, came highly recommended by my Midwife. I knew I wanted an unmedicated birth, and I also knew that I needed an expert in the room to help me and my husband. She made me do hard things, talked me off a ledge or two, and knew exactly what to do/say to make me feel like I could do anything. Melissa was there for me throughout my pregnancy answering questions and offering suggestions. She was indispensable during the birth, helping us with activities to get the baby engaged, holding my hand, holding space, and communicating with my husband about what I needed. After birth, she helped me get the baby latched and got me settled in. A bonus is that she is well known and respected at Baylor UMC, so the nurses and staff trust her expertise with laboring moms. During my postpartum period, she was also very helpful in getting me connected with a lactation consultant to help with a tongue/ lip tie issue my baby was having. I would HIGHLY recommend Melissa and would hire her again in a heartbeat.
