Testimonial for Kristi McCarty
I moved to Kelowna in June 2022 and our little girl was due a month later. We weren't planning to be in Kelowna for her birthday and so finding a doula from a distance felt tricky as a first time mama. When I met with Kristi over zoom, she shared her experience, passion and some podcasts recommendations. The podcasts were what drew me in ?? we met with Kristi shortly after our arrival in Kelowna and she felt like a friend. We walked and talked and discussed my ideal birth, currently concerns, she shared her experiences, and listened with empathy and understanding. During my labour, Kristi was key! My husband was supportive but didn't seem to understand as he wasn't going through it. Kristi coached him along, supported me with tools, tips, and all the strategies. I felt completely safe, reliant and comfortable with her. I truly feel I couldn'y have done it without her gentle words of encouragement, coaching through breathing and touch. I hope to never give birth without her.
