Testimonial for Sharina E Jensen BA, CD(DONA), HCHD, CLC
I have so much to say and I'm so grateful to have found Boise Birth Village! When I got pregnant, my husband and I were new to the Treasure Valley and did not have any support system here. We felt overwhelmed so we decided to hire a doula. Haylee and Sharina were amazing in helping us plan for our birth and prepare for labor. Sharina attended my birth, which was an induction at 41 weeks. The pitocin contractions hit me really hard right away and Sharina was such an angel the entire day... which was basically a full 24 hours! She knew just how to support me and help with pain relief. After I got an epidural she helped me into different positions, which wasn't easy because my legs were numb! Even though I was in active labor for 18+ hours followed by a c-section, it was truly a wonderful and beautiful day and I loved hanging out with Sharina the whole time. I ended up needing a c-section, but Sharina was there right afterwards with continued support. She truly felt like part of the family and I can't wait for the next baby so we can use Boise Birth Village again ??
My baby and I had some trouble after birth and Sharina came over right away. She suspected a tongue tie and helped us get the support we needed. We made priceless connections through Haylee and Sharina - from IBCLCs, craniosacral therapy providers, chiropractic care, acupunture, milk donors, mom groups, new friends, and more.
My baby and I are doing great now and it's all because of Boise Birth Village! We found "our village" in our new town where we previously had no support. I will be forever grateful to Haylee and Sharina. Thank you both!!
