Testimonial for Lydia Robinson CD(DONA), RN, CPM, IBCLC
Lydia was instrumental in teaching us the most important things we needed to know for my pregnancy, labor and delivery, and postpartum. She provided us with the necessary tools to have successful relationships with providers and to advocate for myself when needed. She not only taught us what medical interventions can take place in my experience, but the risks and benefits of the medical interventions. She helped us create a birth plan that was tailored to my needs and how I wanted the birth of our child to go. She was available on call 24/7 from the moment my water broke to the moment our son was born. She was consistently available for questions postpartum when I had them concerning myself or my son. She helped me advocate for further testing and treatment for my mastitis, and cared about my situation as strongly as a family member would. She also helped create my breastfeeding plan to help me reach my goal of exclusively breastfeeding. Thanks to Lydia, my husband and I are more knowledgeable surrounding pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, and we couldn’t be more grateful for her care and support during this life changing, vulnerable, and exciting time in our lives. Lastly, we highly recommend her for any first time parents or parents who have never had a doula before. We recommend her to parents living in Kansas City or thousands of miles away. She was available to us virtually, as we currently live in Germany due to my husband’s career in the Air Force. She was just as available and just as personable to us virtually as I know she would have been in person. Don’t let the distance deter you from acquiring her as your doula. Thank you, Lydia for all of your help, guidance, knowledge, and support. We appreciate you!!!
