Testimonial for Jessica Brown

Jessica came highly recommended by a friend of mine. I already had a good feeling about her just from his description of how amazing she had been during the birth of his child. After meeting her, my partner and I knew that she was going to be the perfect person to support me during labor. Even during our initial interview, Jessica was incredibly attentive to our needs. I was impressed by the questions that she asked, and her ability to make the both of us comfortable to share our needs, fears, etc.

We had two prenatal visits with Jessica. She helped us to form a birth vision, a task which I had been completely overwhelmed by. She talked us through the process and typed up a beautiful birth plan. During Jessica’s second visit, she spent the time getting to know the best coping techniques for us to use during labor. I appreciated that everything was very hands on. It allowed us to easily access those strategies during early labor.

When it was time to travel to The Midwife Center to give birth, I was incredibly grateful that Jessica arrived quickly to support us. The support that she provided during labor went well beyond what I had anticipated a doula would do! She was completely present the entire time. I was less able to communicate my needs than I had anticipated, but it didn’t even matter. Jessica was able to anticipate my needs without my having to ask. She was with me through every contraction, using massage, counter pressure, movement, and her guiding words to help me through. She ensured I stayed hydrated and even fed me watermelon that she had brought to share! When I was feeling overwhelmed, she talked through the fears that I was having and helped me to move past them.

I ended up having such a positive birth experience, and I attribute that completely to Jessica. Her guidance was crucial in helping me to birth my baby boy in a way that I will remember fondly.
