We connected with Mari through our birth doula, who recommended Mari as our backup birth doula. Our labor, delivery, and birth were not as we planned/expected, and Mari stepped in to support us fully. She guided us through a 40 hour labor, through a hospital transfer, and helped us feel empowered about our care options. She brought clinical knowledge, kindness, intuition, and laughter. She made us feel tended to, ensured we were as nourished and rested as we could be, and stayed up with us for our marathon birth. As queer parents, Mari was beyond competent; she was affirming, thoughtful, and celebratory of us as members of the LGBTQ+ community and of the queer and trans members of our care team. We feel very lucky that Mari was a part of our birth experience and have been working with her for postpartum support as well.
