Testimonial for Kerry Burke
Somewhat last minute, we finally decided we wanted to hire a doula...our friends referred us to another doula who was not available so she referred us to Kerry as they work closely together and we are so happy that she did! Kerry is very responsive and great at communicating. The first thing we noticed about Kerry is how intelligent and knowledgeable she is...it's actually quite remarkable. She has a helpful, comprehensive answer for any question or concern you could have...and she is extremely well-spoken to boot. She's great at explaining things in a straightforward, helpful way that is easy to understand and take in but that also gives you all the information you could need or want which is a huge talent in and of itself. Kerry came for her initial visit and we liked her immediately - she is warm, kind, smart and did a great job of putting us both at ease. She involved me and my husband equally + made him feel like he was part of it which was so important to both of us. She checked in with us prior to delivery, picked up my phonecall when my water had broken at 3 am and was wonderful in explaining what was going on and what potential next steps were etc. She stayed in touch when we got to the hospital and made her way there as soon as we asked her to...and supported us through a VERY long labor and delivery...in a tough atmosphere that was not very welcoming to doulas or alternative ways of doing things. She kept her cool and professionalism, found ways to work with the difficult staff and most importantly, made us feel supported throughout a very emotional, scary and challenging experience (including via little touches that actually meant so much like tidying up the messy room when my husband and I walked the floor and putting tea lights all around, having and holding a fan to my face for hours :) etc). Kerry clearly LOVES what she does, she is very fair, wildly smart and very sweet - what else could you want?! Highly recommend!
