Testimonial for Lola Katschke CD(PALS), PCD(NAPS), CLE, NCS
Lola was an integral partner in my birthing experience. From our first meeting she asked thoughtful questions and guided my husband and I through this transition in our lives with patience and SO much knowledge. Everything from our birth plan, to breastfeeding and product recommendations - she shared wisdom that made our journey into parenthood a thousand times better than it would have been otherwise. I will never forget her calm presence during labor - just what I needed to offset my nerves and the intensity of the situation.
The things that really set Lola apart are 1. Attention to detail - she thought to make sure the recieving blanket from labor was kept for our dogs to smell before being introduced to baby E. 2. Practical care - Lola knew that the hospital kitchen would close soon after my son was born, so made sure to put in a dinner order for me right away (even spoon feeding me while I was being stiched up!). and 3. Sense of humor - which is really important for me in stressful situations. Lola is good company and a joy to have by your side in what can be strange and new situations.
"Thank you" doesn't even begin to cover it, but it's a good start. Lola is wonderful at what she does, and working with her as my doula was the best choice I could have made to prepare for my first birth.
