Testimonial for Sara Krivanec, CD(DTI), CLC, CCLS
Sara was our doula for 2 births (for our 2 wild and crazy kids). I had only a loose idea of what the value of working with a doula would be when we met Sara and learned about her background and approach to the work with families. We are so affirming to anyone who asks (or will listen) of the value and, for many families, the need to have a professional Doula as part of your birth team. A shorthand description I give is that the OB or midwife of course cares about and is looking out for the health of the mother but they are primarily focused on the baby during labor. The Doula of course cares about the baby, too! But they are truly your birthing partner (for you and for your partner/spouse). I don't know what my husband would have done without having the opportunity to work with Sara through our births. He was loving and kind and attentive but naturally had so much less EXPERIENCE with births and all the different ways they can go than a Dooula with hundreds of births in her time practicing. Sara was knowledgeable, offering articles to read, tips for prenatal health and birth preparation, and never preachy. Every family will choose what's right for them and Sara offers support to find that path for yourself. And during labor she (and our awesome midwives and nurses) were such steady hands guiding our process to meet our babies.
