Testimonial for Audrea Blayer, CD(DONA)
5 stars isn't enough for Audrea. She is a fairy god mother on earth for mamas and their babes.
I had interviewed Audrea and a few other doula's via zoom and something about Audrea just really stuck out to me from the beginning. I'm a firm believer in trusting my gut and my gut told me I could trust her and that she was the right fit to help me with my goal of a natural birth. In addition to hiring her to attend our birth we also hired her for virtual birth classes. My husband and I zoomed with her 3 times prior to the arrival of our son, Marco. She was thorough, gave plenty of time for questions, and helped us understand what we might expect during this process. She consistently communicated with us via phone, text, or email from the time we hired her until well after our sons birth.
When Audrea arrived at my home the night I went into labor, it was like an angel appeared. She swept in and applied counter pressure to my hips. Spoke in a soothing voice. And continued to offer countless options for pain management over the next 24 hours that would be my home labor. I can say confidently that thanks to her wisdom and presence this process was quite enjoyable and fun, albeit hard work. Unfortunately, we did wind up transferring care to the hospital. Audrea rode with us and supported me all the way up to the hospital doors where she wasn't allowed to pass, again due to covid restrictions.
Following Marco's birth, Audrea became like a fairy god mother to me. She offered the best guidance and support I could ever ask for. She went well above and beyond what we hired her and paid her to do. She truly cares about her work and the families she cares for. I would hire Audrea again in a heartbeat and plan to do so if and when we are blessed with a second child.
