Even trying to secure a doula early on in my pregnancy, I was having a hard time finding someone who was available and responsive, but I'm so glad I found Sharina! The prenatal appointments were both helpful and fun, and my husband and I felt very comfortable and supportive throughout all of our time with her.
It's hard to trust someone with one of the most important and vulnerable parts of your life, but we were very satisfied with the energy and skills that Sharina brought to our birth. We felt ready and expected to handle most of the work ourselves, but it was so great to have someone there with birthing experience dedicated to making me comfortable. Sharina seemed to know what I needed and everything felt as natural and smooth as it would if we had rehearsed it before. She really was a partner in our birth, and it was so helpful to have her taking care of certain things so that my husband could be present for me. I am a first-time mother and had the wonderful, unmedicated home birth that I was hoping for; Sharina was one of the reasons why I look back at that day feeling totally happy with how everything went!
What we really appreciated even more was the assistance we received after our birth. Sharina was very helpful very quickly when we suddenly needed resources and support after finding out our baby had tongue and lip ties that posed a serious challenge to our breastfeeding journey right away. We cannot say enough how grateful we are to Sharina for all that she did for our family. She was awesome!
