Testimonial for Christa Duquette CD(DONA), SBD, HCHD
My husband and I were really grateful to have had Christa by our side as our doula for our 1st pregnancy & delivery as we did not know exactly what to expect. We wanted to have an unmedicated positive hypnobirthing experience if everything permitted, therefore I knew I needed extra support by my side and someone to advocate for me, and Christa did just that!
The day of my induction I became nervous and scared as it wasn’t what I had originally planned to have, but after Christa had arrived that morning, she gave me reassurance and the confidence I needed to be back in a positive mindset. She made sure I was always comfortable as I could be by guiding me in different positions, reminding me to relax & release tension, helping with my breath work, and made sure I was hydrated/ fed.
She offered a prenatal meeting, 24 hours on call 2 weeks prior to my due date & postpartum for any questions or concerns I had. She also came over to check two weeks after having my daughter to see how we were doing and adjusting to our new life. She answered any questions or concerns we had and gave us confidence that we were doing great.
I highly recommend having Christa as a Doula by your side as someone to advocate and support you during such an amazing experience. She was great, friendly and knowledgeable! Not to mention she was also able to take pictures during labor that I’m grateful to have memories captured of that day. If we choose to add another family member in the near future, I would do it all over again!
