Testimonial for Laurie Levy
If you're looking for doulas, then look no further because Laurie is the world's best doula. We had Laurie for the birth of both of our kids, and she was the second person we reached out to upon finding out we were pregnant with #2 (after the doctors but before family, daycare waitlists) because we just HAD to have her there with us again. Laurie coached me through two unmedicated births and also was incredible support for my husband. She adds humor when it's needed and provides such helpful, factual information to help you make the most informed choice. Also, her post partum massages are literally the best massages I've ever received and I've been to a variety of places.
A few other things that make Laurie above and beyond:
(1) She's basically psychic. Laurie's done this so many times that things are ready before you even know you need it. First kid, 20 pillows appeared from nowhere immediate after birth and I didn't even have an opportunity to be uncomfortable with the one sad pillow that comes with your room. Second kid, milkshake and sandwich were ordered at the perfect time so that I was still with it enough to eat but late enough so that I wasn't going to be hungry mid delivery and that my milkshake wouldn't be entirely melted after (also before the cafeteria closed).
(2) She knows everyone. This is especially helpful after birth when you need to see specialists or know of a really good lactation consultant. When I mentioned Laurie sent me to them, I swear they moved mountains to accommodate me. Also, this is great to know where to start when you're exhausted and have no idea what you're doing.
(3) She's an incredible person. We loved hanging out with Laurie and felt so comfortable with her from the get go. It's enjoyable being around her and while we're done having kids, if we were to have a third, she'd beat out the doctor next time for our first call.
