Testimonial for Shanita Joy Murray, RN BSN CD CPD CBC CBE CPNE
Shanita stepped in for us as a back up doula when the person we had been working with, unfortunately, fell ill the week we went into Labor.
Our labor progressed almost immediately to active labor and Shanita was super accessible. We were able to get a hold of her immediately and she hurried to meet us at the hospital as soon as we headed there. (Meeting us at home was not an option due to how quickly things progressed!)
Having her there was super helpful for my partner. By the time the hospital allowed her to meet us, he was pretty exhausted and it was nice for him to have another person there for support and questions. I ended up opting for an epidural and Shanita was great about helping me reposition on the peanut ball as well as helping answer our questions about the various next steps while we waited to progress through labor.
Post labor - she sent us a lot of helpful information to watch out for in post partum and things to be aware of.
As first time parents, we were very glad we opted to have a Doula as part of our care team. We learned so much as a result throughout our pregnancy, birth, and post partum journey that allowed us to not feel completely overwhelmed and anxious for each stage but equipped with knowledge, steps, and supportive resources (our doulas!) to reach out to - should we have any questions or concerns.
