Testimonial for Amy Loomis, RN, CD
Amy was such a phenomenal resource, teacher and advocate that helped bridge the "first time parent" eduation gap throughout pregnancy/ labor for our family. Even from the intial "meet and greet" visit, both my husband and I felt a seamless connection with Amy and the rapport that was built felt very natural. Her knowlegable, yet calm and warm demeaner made us both feel confident that she was going to be a perfect match as our doula.
My husband and I are so thankful for Amy's help in:
Discussing and creating our birth plan for the birth center and/or our birth plan if a c-section or hospital birth were to be necessary; Education on the various stages of labor, labor positioning/ comfort measures, natural pain relief, etc. for both myself and my husband; Breastfeeding education; Herbal education, etc. leading up to birth and postpartum.
With this being my first pregnancy, we wanted to feel as educated and empowered as possible going into labor and Amy helped us feel just that. Amy's support during labor (both via phone while we were still at home) and in person at the birth center were beyond expectations and allowed us to both feel a great deal of autonomy thorughout. Her gentle demeaner brought me such peace and confidence that things were moving in the right direction and her continous encouragement and positional recommendations were invaluable. I can't imagine my birth going as smooth as it did without the help of Amy (and my husband's) support. Our family is forever grateful that we had her as our doula for our first born and can't wait to do it all over again someday with #2!
Thank you for everything Amy, you are such a large piece of our birth story and feel like family!
