Testimonial for Alexandra Blanchard, CD, CBC
We had a great experience with Allie as our pre and post birth doula. While I was pregnant with our son she taught us everything we needed to know aboutlabor, labor positions, taking care of our baby out of the womb and his early needs. She eliminated a lot of the fears I had about labor and being a first time mom.
When it came to my birthing experience, she heard and understood my preferences and advocated for those preferences.
I was unable to have the spontaneous labor experience that I hoped for, but Allie quickly pivoted and was able to give me all the information about induction labor, hospital protocols etc so I could make the best decisions for myself and my son in that moment.
She was very supportive in the hospital and talked through all my thoughts, concerns and doubts with me.
In the end, we made some decisions that we felt were best for me and my birth experience and the birth of my son was perfect. Having Allie there really helped me.
After my son was born she stayed in the hospital and helped me with our first latch which was so important and stressful for me.
We moved to NJ after the birth, but Allie called me, FaceTimed me and checked in on me everyday for weeks after.
Highly recommend!
