My husband and I were expecting our first child in June 2021 and while we'd done as much research and taken all the virtual courses we could to feel prepared, we decided to choose a doula who could assist us in the process as we were still anxious about the first time. We chose our main doula, Jenny Putnam, who called in Rophe Mason as her backup as my due date was just before July 4th when Jenny would be on vacation. We're so glad she paired us with Rophe as I ended up needing to be induced and ended up giving birth on July 4th.
Rophe met with us and Jenny at our home ahead of time and was informed on our birth plan, concerns and questions. We felt very at-ease with her approach and manner as she offered respect, support and encouragement which gave us peace of mind having her on our team.
Rophe was thankfully close by to our hospital for being on-call the morning of the birth; she was a great support to myself and my husband and encouraged him in his coaching and in my labor techniques; and she really took charge in the birthing room making sure we were calm and informed of what was happening as well as speaking up for our wishes and working with the nurses throughout the entire process (which sped by in only 4 hours of active labor and birth!).
We could not be more pleased with our choice of Jenny and her recommendation of Rophe and plan to use them again in the future. You'll be in the best hands with these caring and experienced professionals for your birthing needs!
