Testimonial for Kelly Sunshine CD(DONA)

On April 9th, 2012 Jacob Ernest Beck arrived into this world. My husband was by my side through it all. It was a beautiful and intimate experience for the two of us and I wouldn't change a thing. I can honestly say this was made possible with our doula Kelly Sunshine by our side. She was our support, our cheerleader and our prayer warrior. I was 40 years old when I gave birth to Jacob. My biggest concern was being put in a box of being high risk due to my age. We wanted a natural childbirth experience and decided to use a birthing center for our delivery We decided to seek out a doula to be our support. We couldn't have picked a more perfect person. Kelly has a strong character that made me feel strong throughout my labor. She is knowledgeable, caring and has an amazing sense of humor (something needed in the midst of labor). My labor was long and intense and ended up in a transfer to the hospital. I look back at that day and all I can remember is having a peace inside. My husband was confident in the decision to transfer and Kelly was our main support every step of the way. She gave us wisdom for the decisions we would have to make once we arrived at the hospital and never left our side. We needed her support. It allowed my husband and I to focus on one another and the delivery of our son Jacob Ernest Beck. I am so grateful for Kelly Sunshine and I would refer her to anyone seeking a doula who is passionate not only about life, but most importantly...the amazing gift of life!
