Testimonial for Ashley Benitez
If you're interested in the slightest with working with a Doula, work with Ashley.
When we first started working with Ash, we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. We knew we wanted help, but wasn't sure how to go about it with our first child. That said, we did our research (which was ALOT, mostly because that is how my partner tends to be :), and came across Ashley who became such an integral part of our adventure as we went through it together. Our experience with Ashley was a rollercoaster of emotions, she taught me to feel comfort in uncomfortable situations, she guided me through crazy wild days and nights in breastfeeding, bottle feeding (I didn't have much milk supply), and she cared for both me and my family in a way that felt natural.
Strengths in Ashley - her style fit and adjusted to my style. I tend to be more particular than most (I just can't help it! :), but her help never wavered and it just seemed comfortable. She literally took care of me, so that I could better take care of the life we just brought earthside. She listens, she's patient, she's super strong willed (which I need), and she was able to understand what I needed sometimes before I even knew.
Weaknesses in Ashley - if you can even consider it one, I grew dependent on her. :) In the best way possible - she did share all the tools from her back pocket that I needed though, so it was still a win for me.
Ash is a true expert in her field, and I would do it over and over again with her if given the chance.
