Testimonial for Cathy (Cat) Gomez

Cat is an absolute miracle worker!! I cannot stress enough how amazing and helpful she was!! Coming from a very traumatic first birth I was terrified to go into labor again (I even had to see a therapist).  I interviewed 4-5 doulas and instantly liked her. She was qualified, educated, but most importantly she had a calming presence, showed empathy and listened carefully to my needs and requests. She provided a safe place with no judgement or criticism. 

Leading up to the big day we had several calls and/or in person meetings (depending on our comfort level due to Covid of course). She provided ample amounts of information and as my husband would like to say she was a "resource queen". She was unbiased, never persuaded us to do one thing or another and was very patient.

Day of birth, she was an absolute angel and was always 5 steps ahead. She could read my body and tell when I needed assistance without me even asking (ie, offer water or more air, provided counter pressure or rhymic movement, move my body in the right position to aid with the specific stage of birth I was in, provide words of encouragement or simply stand there and be quiet while I concentrated on my body and stay in the moment). She asisted my husband in helping me and created a beautiful space for me and my family.

I can honestly say that because of Cats support and education I was able to have the beautiful birth experience I had always dreamed of. Everything worked out perfectly and I was able to walk away from it all with a full heart and nothing but gratitude. 

Thank you Cat from the bottom of my heart! I wish every woman could have you as a resource so they too can have a beautiful experience like I did. Xoxo
