Testimonial for Sarah Matney
Having a doula was amazing, but working with Sarah was life changing!
My husband and I worked with Sarah during the birth of our first child. Here's what was most impactful to me:
- She was knowledgable about so many things related to childbirth, pre and post natal. Sarah was able to translate that wisdom in a way that was understandable, especially during the intensity of childbirth.
- Sarah proactively checked in during prenatal, which made me feel well-cared for. This reminded me that she is an excellent resource for questions instead of wasting time trying to find the right answer online.
- Sarah was attentive to my needs during labor, even when I didn't realize I had those needs! My favorite memory of this is when she offered to apply chapstick, and boy that felt good.
- She remained tactically and emotionally present, which brought such positive energy to our entire experience, including months before and after the birth itself.
- All three of us just clicked. This will depend on your personality and how close you want to feel to our doula. During such a vulnerable time, it felt great working with someone who I genuinely liked as a person.
I highly recommend that anyone on the fence about birth doulas to get one. If you have the opportunity to work with Sarah, definitely go for it!
