Testimonial for Austin Huston
When we started looking for a doula, Austin and The Birth Collective was recommended to us over and over again. After our experience with them, I can see why! Austin was wonderful. She was kind, warm, friendly, helpful, and encouraging from the moment we met her. During my pregnancy she was always willing to answer any questions I had or talk me through any concerns, and she was responsive and available whenever I needed her. I ended up going almost a week past my due date and experienced a couple "false starts" to my labor, and she was patient and kind when I reached out to her even when it ended up being nothing.
When I did go into labor, Austin was fantastic. Things moved really fast and were very intense by the time she got there, but her calming presence (and her TENS machine) were so helpful. She took beautiful photos, cared for me in the immediate postpartum period, and tag-teamed with my husband to provide me with the support I needed with some struggles after my baby was born. She also went above and beyond in supporting our family when I ended up in the hospital 6 days postpartum with an infection.
Austin is knowledgeable, experienced, kind, encouraging, and supportive - everything you could possibly wish for in a doula. I can't recommend her highly enough!
