Testimonial for Jet City Doulas
Despite my partner’s skepticism, I felt that hiring a doula would be beneficial, as it was my first pregnancy. After our virtual meet-and-greet with Katie, Mariah, and Jen, I knew that Jet City Doulas was a perfect fit for us. They were with us through the end of pregnancy, into labor, and even postpartum, and helped us prepare in ways we didn’t know we needed. They went above and beyond to make themselves available to us, regardless of the time of day or how trivial our questions may have seemed.
Having 3 doulas to reach out to truly enhanced our experience. Each doula providing a different perspective and unique set of skills. Jen put all of my breastfeeding anxieties to rest, and I am grateful to her for my smooth and successful breastfeeding journey thus far at over 2 months postpartum. Katie supported me when health concerns arose during pregnancy, and helped me identify what was best for me and how to advocate for myself with my providers. Mariah’s skills shone through when my contractions kicked in- I don’t know how I would have gotten through them without her guidance.
Even though I delivered via C-section, which was not my initial preference, I felt incredibly prepared and confident to make the decision with the education and support that had been provided to me. My partner’s skepticism transitioned to relief (when Mariah saved the day once labor intensified), and then to immense gratitude (when Jen helped us welcome our healthy baby boy into the world). What could have been a frightening or even traumatizing experience when things took an urgent and unexpected turn ended up being overall incredibly positive, and I credit a large portion of that to Jet City Doulas.
