Nicole was our birth doula in February for our first child. We could not have asked for a better doula or teammate!! She completed two prenatal meetings with my husband and I to get to know us and understand our wants and needs for the birth. She taught us a lot about what to expect from the process, shared information about hospitals across the Twin Cities and did her best to assist with preparation leading up to the birth. Communication is a huge deal to me and she was always quick to respond to my emails and texts.
We ended up in the hospital unexpectedly. We talked with her on the phone from the hospital and she gave us information and empowered us to make decisions about things we wouldn't have known we had a choice about. She put the ball back in our court and I will be forever grateful for that. On the day of the birth she was there within an hour of requesting her presence. She brought a calm to the room and instantly made me feel better knowing she was there to support us. She was incredible with informing me of pain relief options along with using hypnobirthing techniques and pressure points to relieve my pain. She also informed my husband of good times to take breaks to eat or relax for a few mins.
She was an awesome teammate for us and you cannot go wrong with having her on your team too!! I highly recommend Nicole to any pregnant mamas that I know!!
