Testimonial for Jackie Prescott
Without hesitation, I would recommend Jackie as a doula for any friend or family member. Jackie was a wonderful and calming presence the day of my first son's birth - especially as we navigated COVID restrictions that made the experience a tad more stressful. The day I went into labor, it was so great to know I had someone to call and walk me through what I was feeling and what it meant for next steps. I had anxiety about how painful birth would be and thought I would need the doula there with me as I went through labor at home. I ended up waiting to have Jackie come once I was in the hospital, and I believe that the classes, the preparation, the one-on-one time with the doulas, and the phone conversations with Jackie gave me confidence that I could get through the pain and labor at home with my husband and then go to the hospital for an epidural when it was really time. It was exactly what I wanted! It felt reassuring to have Jackie there at the hospital to answer questions, give me guidance, talk to the nurses when I had a few issues, and be there for the magic moment my son arrived! She knows exactly how to read a room and to understand what you may need in the moment. Thank you so much, Jackie, for making childbirth a very happy memory for me, Tony, and Carson (despite a little pain I've already forgotten!)
