Testimonial for Emily Hursh

Thank goodness for Emily! I wasn’t initially sure I needed the support of a doula (it was my second pregnancy and I trusted the midwife practice with which I planned to deliver), but am so glad I wound up working with Emily. Without our conversations, which helped me to consider my body and needs for the first time in many months (difficult to do while working and parenting/wrangling a toddler in the midst of a pandemic!), I wouldn’t have given my pregnancy and birth the attention they deserved. Emily’s calming, grounded energy and deep-listening skills helped me to prioritize myself, identify my needs and desires, and welcome labor and birth with easygoing confidence. Every step of the way, Emily was communicative, responsive, and full of great ideas and resources without ever feeling overbearing. Her knowledge of acupressure was especially valuable and brought significant relief during labor. All in all, I was very happy with my birth experience and would recommend Emily with enthusiasm.
