Testimonial for Giovanna Mangione (Doula | CBE | CLE)
Giovanna was an amazing asset to our birth team. She was warm, caring, professional, knowledgeable and present in and throuhgout each interaction before, during and after the birth of our son Desmond. Her prenatal care was thoughtful, and she really took the time to connect and bond with our family prior to "the big day." She checked in regualrly leading up to the due date. I (mom) often gave her fun ultrasound or midwife updates as we approached the birth day, to keep her in the loop. Gio always responded to my updates that same day with encouragement and enthusiasm. On the evening of the actual birth, she came at the perfect time and was attentive but not overcrowding. She asssisted not just me as the birthing mother, but the entire team as well. She had an innate sense of when to be close by and when to give a little space. After the birth she was a chameleon, moving quietly and gracefully through the space to help where needed. She made my husband and I some tea and left without a trace shortly afterward. She was a birth angel! After the birth she checked in regularly during the postpartum time. She has been a wealth of information regarding breastfeeding. We highly recommend Giovanna as a doula! Our birth would simply not have been the same without her.
