Testimonial for Sheila Donnelly
It was the best decision I’ve ever made hiring Sheila as my birth doula I’m truly grateful and so blessed to have had her support, care and love during and after my pregnancy. I honestly feel that the universe and my late mother guided me to her she is a beautiful soul with amazing energy we instantly had a strong connection. I moved to Canada last year to be with my husband so I was alone here with no family or friends to help with my pregnancy, Sheila gave me all the love and support that I needed and has become a part of my family forever having a place in our hearts, we would have been lost without her. She gave us lots of info and tools to help us prepare for the birth and helped set up a birth plan which really helped us feel more confident giving birth in a hospital and also gave me the knowledge and exercises to naturally induce labor. Sheila went above and beyond to care for me and my husband during my almost 3 days in labor and at the same time I was also battling a very bad tooth ache she was with me all the way helping me through the pain her calming presence helped ease my anxiety around hospitals and she set up the birthing room to feel more like home making my birthing experience feel so much more comfortable. Her support gave me so much strength and courage to bring my baby boy into the world naturally and I don’t think I would’ve been able to without her. Also being first time parents with no clue what to do, Sheila has been incredibly helpful with postpartum support her vast experience and wisdom gave us so much knowledge on newborn care from help with breastfeeding and how to give baby a bath, things that made me and my husband much more confident in looking after our newborn son. She also provided us with delicious home cooked meals making our postpartum so much easier so we had more time to enjoy with our baby. I am forever grateful to have Sheila in our lives we love her so much I highly recommend her.
