Testimonial for Terri Burleson

Terri Burleson did a phenomenal job as my doula. I was first drawn to Terri for her experience and from the time my husband and I interviewed her, I felt comfortable and trusted her. We met with Terri at 36 weeks and discussed our birth plan. She was nonjudgmental, offered suggestions and provided the guidance we needed as first-time parents. We exchanged many text messages leading up to my baby’s birth, especially after OB appointments, or when we had questions, and she was always quick to respond.

Our birth plan shifted when baby decided to arrive 2 weeks early. Once we were in hospital triage, we contacted Terri and she calmed us down and gave us confidence that this birth could still be everything we hoped. She came to the hospital while my husband went back to get the hospital bag and offered ways for me to try to get labor going without pitocin. She is familiar with St. Anthony North Hospital and worked very well with the staff there.

We sent Terri home since we knew it would be a waiting game at that point, but she checked in with us into the late night hours. At 4 AM, it was time for Terri to come back. Without Terri, I wouldn’t have been able to have a natural birth! She was so encouraging and knew exactly what to say and do when I needed it. She helped my husband feel included throughout the whole process, and we appreciated her taking several photos and videos for us so that we have those memories forever. She stayed for a few hours after baby was born so that we could eat and process the whole experience. She checked up on me several times once I got home and made a home visit to further process the birth experience and how we were adapting to life as a family of three (plus our pup). We appreciated the written birth story that she sent us, too! 

I would hire Terri again in a heartbeat. I sincerely feel like she was a big reason why I had a positive birthing experience and that is invaluable to me!
