Pregnant for the first time, I was super nervous about the labour and delivery – as was my husband (he wasn't even sure he would be able to stay in the room). When I reached out to The Womb for more information about their doula services, Liz was the one who walked me through the process. And I am so, so, so glad. I felt connected to her right away and hired her shortly after. Every session we had with Liz left both of us feeling more empowered about the upcoming experience. She helped us understand our options, create a "plan," and prepare for the birth of our son together, in a way that brought us closer as a couple. Pragmatic, calm and kind, she also responded quickly and thoughtfully whenever I had a question along the way (and I had lot!)
While our birth did not go as planned (induction and then emergency c-section), Liz was there with us in the hospital every step of the way. She worked to keep us both calm and, again, understand our options, figure out what questions to ask and how to advocate for the best experience possible.
If we do decide to have a second child, Liz will be the first person I call.
