Testimonial for Heather Karlson (DONA)

I appreciate Heather's vast experience of being a Doula - and a mother of five! - and supporting me throughout my pregnancy, labor and postpartum experience. It was important to me to hire someone with home birth and years of doula of experience to walk me through what to expect being a first time mom. She has had a long resume of births with GBC and came highly recommended by my care providers. She was there to check in with us exponentially as we got closer to meeting our baby (11 days late!) and was available and ready when we needed her at just the right time for home circuits and breathing exercises. Her coaching during my painful early stages of labor were super helpful with trying to maintain energy for what ended up being 30 hours of labor, and she was especially thoughtful when staying overnight by our side as we got ready to meet our little one. She was open minded too with adapting to what labor looked like for me, which ended up being the opposite of textbook milestones! Her postpartum check-ins and support always came at the right time and I've always appreciated her honesty and communication from day one.
