Testimonial for Kim Holden, CLC

We looked for a doula late into our third trimester with our first baby. Having gotten pregnant at the height of the COVID19 pandemic, we were unable to attend in-person child birthing or parenting classes. We were eager to prepare for both labor and delivery and bringing baby home. My primary concern was having an uncomplicated vaginal labor and delivery. We couldn’t have found a better guide for this intimidating process than Kim! From our first meeting together, Kim was informative, professional, understanding, and kind. She was a wealth of information and shared excellent resources with additional information. We particularly enjoyed learning labor positions to reduce pain and practicing those virtually. She was also a great virtual support during the labor and delivery. We appreciated her being constantly available for questions when tough decisions arose. Though her guidance during the preparation process and labor and delivery was extremely useful, I’m not sure what I would have done without her postpartum. One particular day when our baby was about 4 days old and I was alone, our baby wouldn’t eat (she had trouble latching) and I was completely frazzled. Kim was there for me and brought me back to life. She reminded me of what was most important and encouraged me to sleep and that baby would be ok. Kim also helped with the very challenging early stages of breastfeeding, coaching me through positions and latch. We are forever grateful for Kim’s involvement in our pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum journey and highly recommend her to share your journey. She is a loving, knowledgeable, and kind soul!
