Back in January 2021 I asked UES moms group for doula referral. After some disappointment I was lucky to get doula Ildi’s contact. My OB predicted a big baby and offered a C-section. However, my birth plan was no epidural, med free natural delivery!
I was an RN at Cornell but I would not have done it without my doula. I delivered a healthy baby boy on March 2nd at Alexander C. NYP. The top OBs at Cornell asked my doula for a business card! My nurse said Ildi was one of the best doula’s she had met in her career.
Ildi was like an extension of our family. She is university educated, experienced, highly professional, passionate about her work and a very warm person. She did not let me give up and advocated for us until the very last.
After discharge Ildi came to our place to check on me and a baby at home. We were so anxious about the things our boy was going through. Ildi was a great resource and support postpartum as well.
Dear Ildi, I am beyond thankful for what you have done for me and my family!
