Testimonial for Maggie Gott (Watkins)
Maggie was our doula last year as we welcomed our son into the world! We are so glad Maggie was with us throughout our journey - from pregnancy, labor & delivery, to postpartum. She was so supportive during our pregnancy with expected things like helping us with our birth plan and giving us resources for further self-education, but also went above and beyond to help answer our questions and be a sounding board for us as we had different complications with our pregnancy. During labor & delivery, Maggie was our biggest cheerleader and advocate - she was thoughtful, intentional, dependable, and stuck it out with us for 24 hours for our labor. She brought so many helpful resources to assist me through contractions, met us right at the hospital when it was our time to be there, worked with the nurses in trying different positions, and overall just brought such a spirit of positivity, encouragement, and a "you can do this" attitude that made all the difference. Knowing Maggie had been a doula for so many other births brought such peace as well, and this really shone through as she navigated different scenarios with us at the hospital. She was there when our son entered the world and helped us get settled as a new family of 3. She checked in with us, answered questions, and shared different resources postpartum as we were figuring out breastfeeding, our newborn son and his sleep schedule, and all the physical changes my body was going through. We highly recommend Maggie and are so thankful for all of her support as our doula!
