Testimonial for Sharon Penn
After working with Sharon, I can not imagine anyone giving birth without a doula. However, I can’t speak to all doulas so really I can’t imagine a birthing experience without Sharon. From the day we connected with her, very early in my pregnancy, we felt heard, supported and in safe, educated, experienced hands. We interviewed over a dozen local doulas and did not hesitate in securing Sharon after our first call. My husband and I immediately appreciated her use of reliable, legitimate academic resources when answering our questions and concerns, of which we had many. She connected us with past clients of hers to speak about their experiences, which were glowing and comforting. Our sessions in person to prepare for the birth were hands-on, thorough, enlightening and encouraging. Sharon is as passionate as one can be about her profession- from the theoretical to the practical aspects of childbirth. Most importantly, this passion proved to be essential when my birth ended up being a somewhat complicated, drawn-out one. Sharon was there for every minute- even before she arrived in person, her words over the phone to myself and husband were invaluable. Once there, Sharon not only worked with us and the hospital staff in beautiful unison, but helped me physically and emotionally to birth my child into the world. I do not think I would have avoided a c-section, one of my main goals, without Sharon. We count ourselves incredibly lucky to have found Sharon and had the experience we did, and to have her in our lives going forward, as well.
