Testimonial for Kelly Contreras CD(DONA), CVD(TVL)

I will never not have a Doula ever again - and I hope for every kiddo in our family that our Doula gets to be Kelly! Especially in the unsure times of Covid, Kelly helped offer support to my husband and I in a time where having a baby in a hospital had been turned upside down!

Kelly has a fun demeanor - she brings that to every room she walks into. In moments where a joke could be cracked, she was quick to lighten the atmosphere of the room - a quality I truly enjoyed when I was laboring (both at home and in the hospital!).

Kelly is wise - she helped us know some of the details that would happen immediately post-birth so we could go into the labor room educated. She never gave her opinion without us asking directly for it, but told us what to look up & what the potential options were. Especially with this being our first baby, I was so grateful to know ahead of time about antibiotic ointment & delayed cord clamping...two things I would have previously had NO idea about!! 

Kelly is a gamer - once my water broke, it was game time. From the moment Kelly entered the room, she was "in the zone". She knew how to coach my husband to help and and was at my head offering encouragement between contractions. During contractions, she was quick to offer physical relief by smashing my hips together! If anything can feel good while in labor, it's that maneuver!!  

Kelly is an artist - she got to bring a camera in to our labor room & after having conversations about it, knew what kind of photos we desired. The moments she captured are worth millions to us. She has an eye for the beauty of birth and knew how to capture the moments that would be empowering and evoke emotion for YEARS to come. 

I can't say enough about our experience with her. She added so much joy to our birth and continues to support us in the early days (& hopefully forever more!) of our family!
