Testimonial for Katie Gould

Having Katie support the birth of our baby was such a gift! Her knowledge and calming presence were really reassuring during a vulnerable time. Katie advocated for us to medical staff, talked through medical options with us, and respectfully and confidently supported our decision making. Her knowledge of various positions and use of the peanut ball were especially helpful, since I needed to change positions frequently to keep baby’s heart rate in a safe zone. The tea lights she brought created a wonderful calming environment. Katie was willing to be our Doula on a moments notice (our original Doula was sick the day my water broke and Katie was called as a backup; she met us for the first time in the hospital parking lot very soon after!) and she stayed with us throughout a long labor process. She took amazing photos of our baby’s birth that we’ll treasure forever. I could not be happier with the care and support offered so compassionately by Katie. While we were sad not to have our original Doula, I feel so lucky that we got Katie. I’ll be forever grateful for Katie’s presence during our baby’s birth, and very highly recommend her to others!
