Testimonial for Briana Singh
We loved having Briana as our birth doula!
While feeling highly capable, my spouse and I decided further support would bolster our strength and abilities through the process. We reached out to Briana due to the variety and breadth of experience. We hired her because of those aspects as well as the fact that she was a great match in character for us and the type of support we wanted: confident, calm, and warm (with a sense of humor!)
My spouse and I don’t ask for a lot of help and are fairly private so we felt a bit hesitant about including someone in our experience but a book pointed out there are already “strangers” such as nurses involved, what is one more person in the room? Thank god for that advice that led us to get more support.
Briana always showed up with a down-to-earth attitude and matched our needs whether that be information, resources, verbal encouragement, physical support, or even space. Not only did she give us an overview of labor, send resources and help us finalize our birth plan, she also handed over a postpartum planning worksheet to make sure we were preparing for that as well.
During labor, she was there to offer wisdom, information, reminders, kindness, and support. She always responded with patience and care until we reached a decision (and as a waffler, I can attest to the wealth of patience that Briana has!!!) She was responsive with care such as a damp cloth, counterpressure, Spinning Babies moves, and sensing when we needed some space. As well as just responding to our needs such as a surprise trip to a hospital in another city!
She even did a postpartum visit as well as checking on us a number of times via text postpartum and was there to send extra resources to our family when I hit a rough patch with some postpartum mood issues.
She shows up, participates, and supports everyone; I highly recommend her services!
