Testimonial for Danielle Randell CD(DONA)
Danielle is incredible. She was our doula for the birth of our first child, and I'm so thankful she was there. With this being my first pregnancy, I had a lot of questions and there were a lot of unknowns for me. Danielle was available to answer any questions I had and always did so in such a caring and compassionate manner. She came to our house for a prenatal visit and I learned more here than I likely would have if I had simply taken a class. She really helped me feel prepared.
When I learned I needed to be induced at 37 weeks, I panicked. Danielle helped me to stay calm and explained exactly what would happen and what choices were still mine to make. The day of the induction would have looked a lot different without her. I didn't always understand what the hospital nurses were saying, and she'd explain to me in terms I could understand. She used different positioning to help move the process along and was so motivating and encouraging along the way. She even taught the nurses a few things! The day started out very scary for me, but Danielle was there every step of the way to make sure I understood everything that was happening and to help ensure everything was going smoothly. While the nurses would periodically come in and check on me, Danielle knew exactly what was happening and were I was at the entire time. This was so comforting. I felt like I truly had an advocate who only cared about the best interests of myself and my baby. I can't thank Danielle enough for the support she provided to both my husband and to me!
