Testimonial for Heather Keeney
I can't recommend Heather enough. From her first visit to our home, we connected immediately and knew that she was the person we wanted on our "team." My reason for hiring a doula was because I really felt like I needed an advocate throughout the process who was levelheaded enough to keep me focused and grounded but also warm, intuitive, and sensitive enough to provide emotional support that we needed, and that's exactly what we got. She was so knowledgeable and an invaluable resource before, during, and after the birth. Even though we attended a few classes at the hospital and did a little reading here and there about "what to expect," most of what I learned about modern obstetrics, the labor and delivery process, and breastfeeding I learned from Heather (if not directly from her then through suggestions and links that she provided - she knows everything!!). She also made herself totally accessible and available at all times. On the big day, she provided outstanding support for me and my family (during a labor that wound up taking an awfully long time!), making sure my desires were expressed and my needs were met. Even after my labor stalled and it became clear that I wasn't going to have the 100% natural birth I had planned, she was non-judgmental and kept me informed and focused, which helped me make all the right decisions that led to the extremely beautiful and fulfilling birth of our daughter. My husband and I agree that the process would not have gone nearly as well without her and that hiring Heather was the best decision we could have made. My daughter is two weeks old and my husband and I already miss hanging out with Heather!
