Meredith did a fantastic job being available and committed to my birthing experience. It was my second pregnancy, so I was pretty well versed in the process of birth already, but Meredith was there for me emotionally (which was my primary goal of having a doula) and she also had knowledge of things that came up throughout my pregnancy.
She was heavily focused on making sure you, as the pregnant person, felt heard and respected throughout your care with your birthing team. She knew my appointment schedule and always asked me how things went, if I felt comfortable, and if any of my concerns were taken seriously. Towards the end, being that I was developing preeclampsia, she was communicating with me daily to stay up to date with my needs. She came to my birth at 4:30 in the morning (such a trooper) and luckily I had a quick delivery! She was very quick to help me with positions, counter pressure, words of affirmation, etc. She stuck around after to make sure I was in a good head space and then we communicated throughout the next couple of weeks so that she could check on me postpartum. I truly enjoyed working with her.
