Testimonial for Patrycja (Patty) Drozd CD(DONA)
This being my 4th child to be delivered it was hard to justify to myself if I needed anyone to “help” me along the journey of delivering. I finally made my decision to call up Patrycja very last minute I was 38 weeks pregnant, we set up a conference call over the phone to initially have her explain the ins and outs of what to be expected. This is something I wish I really understood early on throughout my pregnancy. As much as I felt I missed out as she could have guided me along throughout the whole pregnancy I felt like she made up within the next few days. Both fortunate and unfortunate my water broke ahead of schedule which meant we didn’t get to meet in person before the delivery. The entire 23 hours I was guided through text message and later in person with any and all questions. Since I was worried about the length of the water being broke I wanted to speed up the process and she had more avenues than I even thought was available. As my doula, she not only became a person that would help me along the way to delivering a healthy baby, she put my mind at ease. When she came in person I was enriched with comfort and security. She gave the confidence that I needed, the resources that would make a difference and best of all we have beautiful pictures of the amazing experience that comes with having a new addition to the family. Words cannot truly express the amount of gratitude that I have for this woman. Through one of my last contractions I told her I wouldn’t know what I would have done without her. These words, the friendship we made and the memories created cannot be replaced. She is a gem of a person, and she pours her heart and soul into what she does.
