Testimonial for Jasmine Stuverud
The moment we met Jasmine we knew she was the right person to be on this journey with us. And while you may find many doulas with similar certifications and years of experience, it’s Jasmine’s seemingly effortless ability to provide empathy, kindness, perspective, resources, and an empowering touch that set her apart.
So much of the support Jasmine provided came at unexpected times, like when we left prenatal doctors appointments feeling anxious and uninformed, Jasmine was there to guide us with knowledge and reassurance. Or when we struggled with decisions regarding our baby being in the breech position, Jasmine made herself available and helped support us with so much compassion and a wonderful referral to ensure we were in the best and safest hands possible.
Ultimately, when our birthing plans changed for our breech baby, Jasmine held space for all of our feelings and helped us to imagine a family centered cesarean that brought us so much comfort when we really needed it.
They say that birth never goes as planned, and that was certainly true for us. But having Jasmine on our team ensured we felt supported and informed each step of the way.
Jasmine stayed with us in the hospital until we were comfortable and then continued to check in with us over the phone until our first postpartum visit. During this visit Jasmine helped us problem solve breastfeeding difficulties and referred us to a lactation specialist who wrapped around us with so much support and immediate solutions.
We hope in sharing our story others will be encouraged to reach out for support from Jasmine and get to experience the unique and powerful relationship between birthing family and doula. We also wish this testimonial to serve as a thank you to Jasmine, for helping us to have a birth that for both of us felt truly and simply- magical.
