Testimonial for Juana Browne
Having a doula for my home birth was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Chosing the perfect doula is so crucial and their energy has to be in tune with yours. They not only provide support and advocate for you, but they have to align with your values and respect your birth plan. It takes a special type of person and Juana was for sure made for this profesion. She is passionate, reliable, professional, personable, informative, patient, empathetic, knowledgeable and just a great human being. She was with me from beginning to end throughout my pregnancy and the day I brought my baby earthside. The day I gave birth she arrived before my two midwives and guided me on different stretches and exercises to get things moving along and when it came time for pushing she did counter pressure on my hips that helped so much with my contractions. She also said many words of encouragement and suggested different positions to help make pushing easier. After I gave birth she helped me with breastfeeding and checked on me multiple times after she left. Juana was emotionally present, helpful and everything I needed her to be on such an important and intimate moment. I will forever be thankful for her and when I have my 2nd baby I will definitely chose her again.
