Where to start? Chana is EVERYTHING!
I was referred from a Mom's group and hesitantly reached out. I had no idea what a doula was, but also had 0 clue about being pregnant or birth so what was there to lose?
My husband and I met with Chana when I was 7 weeks pregnant. We fell in love! She was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life.
Chana has so much experience with births and pregnancy. She has a ton of contacts, resources and info about everything. My pregnancy was normal but I needed additional support and she made sure I got it. Chana made sure I never had to suffer and always listened.
I switched from an OB to homebirth midwives with Chana's help. She presented all info for us to make an informed decision about my care. She taught me that you can choose the type of care you deserve. I deserved better and I got it because of Chana. There was never a time throughout my pregnancy (or pp) where I felt uncared for by Chana. She made me feel special and loved.
From early labor until after my birth, Chana made sure everyone was taken care of (husband and fur babies too). When I was in active labor Chana helped me put fear aside to focus on the baby I was about to welcome into the world. She without hesitation (and unexpectedly) assisted my midwife with my birth and did a fabulous job. No task is too big or too small for Chana and she is like I said before...EVERYTHING!
From beginning to end I couldn't love Chana any more. She loves my baby like her own and she will forever be apart of me. If I ever have a 2nd child she will be my first call. I couldn't/wouldn't want to do it without her. She made everything beautiful for me and helped set me up to be a great mother!
In short...
If you're considering hiring a doula, do it. If you're considering hiring Chana, ABSOLUTELY DO IT!
Love you forever, Chana.
