Pepper went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I felt heard and comfortable when it came to the delivery of our first baby. When we hired Pepper we were planning for a vaginal birth, however, at 36 weeks we found out that our baby was breech. Pepper walked us through all our options to get the baby to turn on his own including spinning babies, chiropractic adjustments, and acupuncture. Although these methods didnt work for me personally, Pepper was able to make us feel confident in our choice to try an external cephalic version to get the baby head down. Pepper even offered to be there for the version to support us but the hospital would not allow it due to covid. When the version did not work and a csection had to be scheduled, Pepper met with us to change and discuss our birth preferences to make sure I still felt heard and safe even though our birth plans had changed. The hospital would not let doulas in the OR due to covid but Pepper still offered to drive and hour and a half just to meet us in the parking lot before the csection. She truly went above and beyond even when it seemed like the hospital was doing everything to block her from supporting us in the hosptial. Pepper was able to fully support us over the phone and in our home and gave us all the tools abd information to be confident in our decisions at the hosptial. Pepper has excelent communication skills and connects with each of her clients during Monday Mama check ins, which I loved! Pepper is a very sincere, compasionate, and knowledgeable doula. We would hire her again in a heart beat!
