Testimonial for LeNay Graham CD(DONA), CLD Woven With Grace LLC

I reached out to LeNay after my midwife recommended her services, and I'm so grateful I did. Hiring her was the by far best thing I did to prepare for labor + delivery, and I felt so supported by her wisdom, kindness, and expertise.

Two words come to mind when I think about my time working with LeNay: competence + care.

Throughout the process, I was so impressed by her depth of knowledge + experience. She had suggestions + wisdom to share through every stage of the journey -- everything from creating a birth plan to preparing my body for labor to assembling supplies for the postpartum stage to helping me get labor started (after 2 nights of prodromal labor), and so much more.

During labor, LeNay coached me through the whole thing, suggesting positions based on where I was in the process + where baby was stationed. I was able to have an unmedicated vaginal birth, but I came close a c-section due to a cord compression/heartbeat deceleration issue. And I think without her support + coaching, there is a very real possibility my labor would have progressed more slowly, resulting in a different outcome.

But even more than this practical support, I felt LeNay's deep care throughout the process. She was with me the whole time, deeply present throughout. She held my hand, wiped away my sweat, and shared encouraging words throughout the whole 10-hour labor, and I definitely leaned on her nurturing energy + felt so supported by the love she poured into me + my baby.

If I end up doing this all again, my first call will be to LeNay. I can't imagine doing this without her in my corner, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for doula support.
