Testimonial for Chana Diamond
From the first call with Chana I knew that she was exactly what I was searching for in a doula. I wanted someone who had a sense of humor, would be physically and emotionally supportive, and would advocate for me if needed. Chana had a light heartedness to her that I instantly connected with. She also led with data and always encouraged us to think about what was right for us as a family. The birth of my daughter was no where near what I had envisioned. As much as I had hoped for a vaginal birth, I had to have an emergency c-section due to my daughter showing signs of distress. As a Latina women, I am very well aware of the mortality rate for women of color during birth, particularly when undergoing a c-section. While my biggest fear was realized, having Chana by our side allowed us to ensure that we were informed every step of the way, and were asking all the right questions. It also allowed me the space to process the birth after, which I had never envisioned I would need to do. I cannot put into words how immensely helpful our post birth visit was with Chana. Aside from providing me with the emotional support that I needed, she also brought us wholesome treats! As new parents it was also incredibly helpful to have Chana's support as we learned how to navigate the newborn phase, particularly breastfeeding. With lots of patience, and words of encouragement, I was able to successfully breastfeed my baby girl. I am so greatful for Chana and would highly recommend her!
