Testimonial for Camille Fiori BS, IBCLC, CD(DONA), HCHI, HCHD, AdvNCS(NCSA)
We are so glad we found Camille. Talking to her immediately transitioned my emotions about the birthing process from worrisome/slightly fearful/just wanting to get through it to celebratory! After our second, in-person meeting with her before the birth, we were just psyched for the big day! Camille is so knowledgeable about every aspect of the process, and provided us with so much information and resources to explore on our own as well. As scientists, we felt we could communicate with her well on all of these issues and appreciated the extensive list of references she'd compiled. I felt so prepared, both emotionally and intellectually (i.e. in terms of making all of the small decisions one must make). She was a wonderful presence in the delivery room -- calming, supportive, positive, all of the things you want in a doula. I definitely felt so much more safe and secure and "ready" for delivery with her there. She was so intuitive about what was needed during the day, and was able to step in and give us the nudges we needed (for example, helping to ask the doctor again for anti-nausea medication when it had been too long without it), without at all being the least bit overbearing, and just with keeping things low-key and peaceful. Really, she made it so that all me and my partner had to do was focus on the process I was going through. She was also incredibly accessible during the weeks before and after the birth. I particularly appreciated her very organized, professional approach to her work -- it was easy to chat with her and view documents via the Healthie app, for example.
