Testimonial for Akemi Tsuru CD(DONA)
Akemi has a very calming presence while also being encouraging at the same time. I'm normally very anxious when it comes to anything medical related and I didn't want my birthing experience to feel like a procedure. I really wanted a natural birth with as little intervention as possible but because I had to give birth in a hospital I really wanted to make sure we had a doula that was both supportive and knowledgeable. Akemi was both of those and more which made me much more confident going into the experience. After some unexpected health complications I was upset that my doctors wouldn't allow me to have the all natural birth I had planned for but Akemi helped me stay positive and focus on the things I could control in order to have the most natural birth possible. She was the best support person my husband and I could've asked for. She was always there to answer any questions before the birth, during & after. Akemi also captured the best moments between photos of the first skin to skin with my son and polaroid pictures of my husband and I before going in and its something we'll cherish forever. I'm so happy to have found her as a doula and will definitely want her to be a part of my future birth experiences as well!
