Testimonial for Melissa Harris
Passionate, kind, and knowledgeable
I have been in three births with Melissa. In the first two, I was present as my cousin’s support person and in the last one, I was the star of the show.
Melissa Harris is an experienced and knowledgeable doula, and these are two important factors that give you and your partner confidence when you’re in labor. When I was checked in at the hospital, I was only 4cm dilated. Within minutes, Melissa noticed that I had the urge to push. Being a FTM and being in a lot of pain, I hadn’t realized that. She asked the nurses to check my cervix and taught me a strategy to pause pushing until it was safe to do so.
Melissa is culturally sensitive and coming from a completely different culture, this was very important to us. She’s very respectful of cultural differences and is a diversity-minded person. She’s kind, passionate about her work, and genuinely cares about her clients. You get the feeling that you have your best friend with you, who happens to be a doula. I absolutely recommend her to all mamas.
