Testimonial for Ariana DeFreitas-Fortier
Every part of working with Ariana was beyond my expectations. She was a phenomenal doula for us as first time parents. She has a wealth of knowledge and resources that helped us better understand the processes of labor and delivery that many of the hospital birth classes didn't quite explain. Her attention to detail in understanding my needs and wants was flawless - I have post traumatic anxiety associated with hospitals and medical procedures and Ariana was very attentive in seeing that I had proper tools to remain grounded, that the nursing staff understood what I needed when I wasn't able to communicate during labor, and was ready to jump in with different techniques and encouragement at a moments notice to keep me from panicking. She was also very attentive in making sure I understood the plain English of medical terminology being used, that I understood what procedures were being discussed, and made sure I understood exactly why we needed to make adjustments to the birth preferences. I would recommend her to anyone, particularly to anyone who struggles with anxiety or post traumatic stress. She is caring, knowledgeable, and a brilliant support person. I cannot say enough good about her!
