Testimonial for Loretta Kane
Loretta was a wonderful partner to be part of our daughter's birth. She takes a warm approach even from the first meeting. Before the birth, Loretta ensured that she knew our birth preferences and how she could best help us make that experience come to life. She had several resources for my husband and I to read in advance to help educate us on what to expect during the labor, breathing techniques, etc. I was having some SI pain and she was able to help me find a prenatal chiropractor in the area to help me with my discomfort. Her communication is top notch. She would check in with me periodically as we approached my due date and gave many words of encouragement as we waited patiently for baby to show signs of arrival. Once I started to feel early labor contractions she responded very quickly and gave me suggestions to comfort throughout the day while feeling those iniatls contractions. Once it was time to go to the hospital, she was there promtptly and was actually there waiting for us and greeted us as we arrived (so comforting to see a famillar face). I intended on having a natural/non medicated birth and Loretta was very helpful in the delivery room with comfort measures. She also gave my husband suggestions on how we could help comfort during the peaks of the labor. After the birth, her warmth continued as she checked in several times to see how I was doing and how our family was adjusting. Loretta truly takes an approach of mothering the mother. I would highly recommend her for anyone considering a doula. Loretta is warm, kind, respectful, and listens.
