Testimonial for Amanda Clarke-Ray M.Ed., CD(DONA)
This was our first baby and most of our friends have had doulas for their births so we had high expectations. Amanda exceeded all those expectations and was above and beyond what we hoped for. She is professonal, kind, easy to communicate with and extremely knowledgable. Her experience is amazing, she's helped a lot of familys in the years she's been a doula. The hospital staff at Swedish in Issaquah all loved her. She helped us prepare for our "planned birth" then helped us when tough decisions or changed needed to happen in the heat of the moment. I couldn't have imagined a better birth story for myself and my daughter. Amanda helped me through the hardest part of the journey, breast-feeding, via her network of referrals to licenses lactation specialists and cranial sacral therapists. She helped make sure my husband and I were doing ok adjusting to life as mom and dad, recomendded setting up the flow of our home for making things simple, clean and easy and even helped me 6 weeks later on how to best use all my wraps to wear baby the proper ways. If we have another I will ask Amanda to be at our side as our doula again, definitely book her early as she is busy these days and only takes on a limited number of families per month to ensure each family gets the tender care they deserve.
