Testimonial for April Cañete Pavlish
In short we were honoured to have April's support during our pregnancy and delivery. We have said many times since (usualy while reccomending her to our expecting freinds) that we couldn't have had the smooth and safe delivery that we did with out her.
From the initial virtial meet we knew April was our Doula - her approach was warm, open, kind and strong; a non-nonsense, experienced professional who listened, guided and laughed simultainiously - The perfect fit for us! We decided to work together when I was about 36 weeks along.
During our first in person meeting we shared preferences, concerns and actions. We discussed and aligned on our birth plan and ended the meeting feeling fully prepared for delivery day. In between that meeting and the hospital day April was always on hand with questions, answers and resources. Honestly we felt like she was by our side from day one. The day we went to the hospital April calmed and guided us as we knew she would. She helped us both answer medical questions from the staff, take time with our descions, and had my back in everyway while giving birth to our son. Her help made a special day the most memorable in the best ways possible and we'll be forever thankful she was a part of our birth journey!
Thank you again April - you really are a star!
