Testimonial for Megan Gifford, CD(DONA)
From our first meeting I could see that Megan was highly knowledgeable and would be amazing at supporting me though my pregnancy journey. Even though we just had met, I felt like I'd known her for years. Megan made me feel at ease and taken care of. I was welcomed to txt and call whenever I had questions or just needed emotional support. She is well educated in techniques such as spinning babies and lactation and was a wealth of knowledge throughout the process. She gave me ways to prepare for childbirth and educational resources that absolutely made a difference when the day came. I can't imagine having my baby without her support. It was a wonderful experience and she was tuned in, right there with me, coaching me though it all. Her presence is calm and reassuring, an absolute necessity when dealing with the changing stages of labor.
Her training in Estim for use in labor was a major reason I was able to endure each contraction and am thankful she has spent the extra time to become well educated in several techniques to help her new moms.
In addition to all she offered leading up to the birth, she also offered complimentary photographs of the birth. The photos she captured are such a treasured memory. Her postpartum care was also stellar and included 2 postpartum meetings and providing me with options for my placenta.
Megan goes above and beyond for her moms. I can't imagine having anyone else help me with future pregnancies.
