Testimonial for Cashew Pendergrass | Holistic Perinatal Care
Working with Cashew was wonderful and made my birthing experience everything I had hoped for.
We were introduced to Cashew by our original doula, who got sick the week we were due with our first child. Cashew made herself available very quickly for a Zoom meeting and rapidly got up to speed on our birth plan. Her warm demeanor made us feel at ease despite the stressful circumstances.
Later that same day, I went into labor. Cashew regularly checked in and we collectively decided how and when she could best support us during labor. When she arrived at the hospital, she was very well prepared. She had tools and props that helped set the scene and allowed my partner to actively engage and support at each stage of the delivery (dim lights, a fan and a speaker, a sign that I have to this day, etc). Her kind, soothing and supportive style was perfectly matched with what we needed - she knew exactly what I needed to hear and when. She also knew how and when to interact with hospital staff to ensure that I had full awareness of decisions being made and why.
We highly recommend Cashew and believe that she was a big reason why our birthing experience was so healthy and smooth. We are incredibly grateful for the unexpected series of events that brought us together!
