Testimonial for Leah Kohlstrom, CBD, CCBE. CLC
After having a troubling hospital birth with my first I wanted things to go very differently with my second. I planned a home birth with my second and hired Leah to be my doula. I am so glad to have had the relationship with her through pregnancy, it made me feel comfortable to call her once labor rolled around. I called her having anxiety once labor was starting (I didn't realize it at the time) and my little babe decided to come in a very speedy fashion and he was born before my home birth midwives or Leah could make it to my house (no fault of theirs!). Once Leah arrived, she took wonderful care of me in the immediate postpartum and continued to check in with me daily to make sure we were adjusting well at home. I also had Leah come and do a postpartum visit the first day my husband went back to work and it was amazing to have her help. She took it upon herself to organize and put away all of the things in our babys nursery (something I never had time to do) and my heart melted when I saw what she did. She was a wonderful calm presence to have in my life in the immediate postpartum and helped me troubleshoot all of my questions regarding adjusting to life with two little ones. If you are considering a doula, I highly recommend Leah. You won't regret having her in your corner during such a huge life transition.
