Testimonial for Cathy (Cat) Gomez
Cathy (Cat) was a blessing to my husband and I and we highly recommend her as a doula. Cat is compassionate, wise and highly educated. Her calm voice and mindful philosophy regarding childbirth were what originally drew me to her. She was so great to work with throughout the pregnancy and her unbais approach to every situation helped my husband and I navigate the joys and challenges of our pregnancy during Covid times. Our meetings throughout the pregnancy were informative, helped us understand what to expect and how to work together during labor. Cat impressed us with her ability to impart information without judgement helping us to make informed decisions about what was right for us, and our journey. During labor and delivery she was an invaluable member of our birth team! Instantly when she arrived she changed the environment in our hospital room to a calm and peaceful space. The nurses even commented on the spa like atmosphere. Cat supported me directly for over 24hours straight while working gracefully with my husband and the nursing staff. She was instrumental in bringing everyone together to best support me and my baby throughout a challenging labor and delivery process. Her knowledge of positioning is what helped my son turn and for me to be able to deliver vaginally. For this I am forever grateful to her. She was truly like a gaurdian angel watching over my son and I during the birthing process. After the delevery she continued to give selflessly of her time even though it was birthday. Cat continued her support through postpartum by answering questions, checking in with me, and sharing priceless photos of the labor and birth. Lastly, during our postpartdum meeting she presented lovely personalized gifts and a timeline of our son's birth. She is thoughtful, generous with her time and a calming presence. If you have the opportunity to work with her, life has offered you a gift that you will always cherish during the most profound time in life.
