Testimonial for Cherish Perez CD(DONA),CLE, CBE

Cherish was my doula for the birth of my second child. Our whole experience with Cherish was a great one. From the initial interview to our postpartum follow up appointments Cherish was caring, honest, encouraging, supportive, and very knowledgeable. Although I have given birth before, I needed a different type of support this time around and Cherish was able to meet my needs every step of the way. She was flexible and reliable with our appointments. She was able to meet me where I was at physically but also emotionally and she was available by phone call or txt whenever I needed her.

About the birth. My daughter was born in January 2022 while the hospitals were experiencing a surge in COVID cases. My birth was very fast. I first called Cherish at 2am that morning and told her I was having contractions. By 3am my midwife instructed me to go to the hospital, Cherish met us in the ER as soon as we arrived at 3:30. The hospital was VERY understaffed and not prepared for my arrival. They were scrambling to find staff to assist me. For a few minutes there I thought my husband or Cherish might have to deliver my baby! I was SO grateful in that moment to have Cherish there with us. While the hospital staff was scrambling, Cherish assisted me through contractions, helped me change positions, held the emesis bag, cooled me with wet washcloths etc. The situation was so much more calm and I felt more confident with her there, I knew me and my baby would be ok.

After the birth she followed up with me multiple times to ensure breastfeeding and bonding was going well. She even stopped by our home with a care package and lactation cookies! Cherish is truly an amazing person.

I would recommend Cherish to anyone needed a calm, confident, knowledgeable, and reliable doula to support them during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
