When my partner Krista and I were expecting our first child, we knew we would be in need of general guidance and support from somebody experienced & knowledgable outside of our immediate circle of friends & family.
Having a rudimentary understanding, at best, of a postpartum doula's role with a newborn and new parents, we came up with a short-list of things we hoped to find in such a person - naturally nurturing, non-judgemental, an ability to find fun and humor in potentially stressful moments, averse to unsolicted advice - and Brighid checks all of these boxes and more.
From our first introductory phone call, Krista and I immediately felt comfortable and confident in Brighid's abilities and passion for her work. This was a huge weight off of our shoulders as we prepared for childbirth, knowing that our expanding little family would have a competent and caring guide as soon as we were ready.
In the roughly four weeks that Brighid worked with us, we were continuously impressed by her insight, her natural abilities, her warmth and her flexibility. We are very grateful for our time with Brighid and the memories we were able to create in those first few weeks with our newborn baby, as a result of her presence.
