Testimonial for Mariah Falin, CD(PALS), PPD, PES
Working with Gina and Mariah was one of the best decisions my husband and I made during my pregnancy. From our first conversation with them, we knew we would be in good hands for the birth of our first child. Both of them are incredibly knowledgeable, kind, caring, and compassionate, and they truly want you to have the best birth experience possible, no matter how you choose to give birth and no matter what happens along the way there. Gina was with us during my birth. As my labor progressed, she was there to explain my options along the way and make sure I understood what the doctors and nurses were actually saying. When it became clear that I was going to need an unplanned c-section, she explained to my husband and I what was going to happen, listened to our concerns and fears, and did everything she could to address them, even pinning a cotton ball soaked in essential oils in a small baggie to my hospital gown so I could smell something calming during the surgery. Gina and Mariah continued to check in with me and my husband after we were home from the hospital. They introduced us to the lactation consultant and postpartum doula we ended up hiring, both of whom have been so important during this period. I didn’t realize when we decided to work with Gina and Mariah that we would be gaining access to this incredible network of women, but I am so so happy we did. If you are looking for doulas, you cannot go wrong with Birth Matters NW.
