Testimonial for Dannah Norris
From the very first interview together, we have been wildly impressed with Dannah's ability to connect with us and immediately understand our birth goals and concerns. She has a wonderful demeanor which brings peace and calm to what could have been a stressful labor/birth experience, given that it was our first. Dannah was sure to address each of our questions and concerns with paitence and thorough knowledge - telling us from the beginning that there are no dumb questions. Our prenatal visits with Dannah were a great way to get to know each other as well as prepare for birth, giving us confidence as new parents going through this new experience.
The day we headed to the hospital for delivery, Dannah beat us there, meeting us in triage and walking us through step by step on what to expect. The best words to describe her would be the 'Ultimate Advocate". As the scenario played out and changes needed to be made to our birth plan, she helped us navigate each decision, as well as speaking on our behalf to the labor and delivery team with our best interest in mind.
She stayed in our birthing room the entire time we were in the hospital - offering any and all support during what could have been a stressful event. Her presence eliminated all fears, giving my husband and I confidence in every stage of labor.
Now that our baby is here, she continues to bring that same calm during our postpartum visits at home, sharing her wealth of knowledge in newborn care, emotional support, breastfeeding, placenta encapsalation, and much more. Dannah was referred to us by close friends and we would 100% refer her to anyone looking for support and genuine care during such a special journey. Through this entire experience Dannah was more than just our doula, we would consider her our friend.
