To whom it may concern,
My name is Patricia Gorman and I am the director of the Jesus Mary Joseph Home, a long term transitional shelter for women, children and those in need of end of life care. I was looking for support for a young mother named Rosa living at our shelter. Ariana Kaback came highly recommended by a dear friend of mine, Salle Webber, author of "The Gentle Art of Newborn Family Care: A guide for postpartum doulas and caregivers. Ariana turned out to be a perfect match for Rosa, who was in need of prenatal, birth and postpartum doula support.
Rosa is Spanish speaking so Ariana being bi-lingual was a big plus. They were able to connect with each other immediately. Ariana's professionalism, compassion, vibrance and knowledge were apparent from the start. Ariana was able to answer many of our resident's concerns, assisted her in her birth plan and helping her to make sure her birth was as natural as possible. Ariana provided encouragement, physical comfort, massage, educational videos, props for laboring, and to Rosa's other young children at the same time. She is an excellent birthing coach and emotional support to Rosa. The birth of Rosa's baby boy was a truly sacred event and Ariana Kaback contributed to the best possible birth outcome one could hope for.
I highly recommend Ariana to anyone looking for the support of a doula. She's one of the best.
Sincerely,
Patricia Gorman, Director
Jesus Mary Joseph Home
Santa Cruz, Ca.
