Testimonial for Jourdan Sales
I can't even begin to imagine going through labor and delivery without Jourdan. I knew I wanted a doula since first time labors are often longer. Of course, my labor ended up being fast, but that made me even more glad we had Jourdan, because things moved so quickly and felt so overwhelming that it was only due to their grounding presence and guidance that I was able to manage as well as I did. Our early meetings were so helpful and they are so friendly and warm that it was a pleasure talking with them, and they have such good knowledge but also are able to customize it for the couple.
For the day of, Jourdan came to our house after my contractions got intense enough that my husband and I were having a hard time managing them together, and thanks to their guidance and support, I was able to labor at home for several more hours. Although the sensations were pretty overwhelming, they did an amazing job of keeping me grounded and getting me to control my breathing during contractions. In between contractions, they encouraged me to take sips of water, fanned me off, kept my hair tied up, and so much more. When it was time to go to the hospital, they helped me get dressed, get my shoes on, and walk me out to the car in between contractions. They were just as helpful once we were in the hospital, suggesting position changes and coaching me through different breathing patterns as needed. Once I had a nitrous mask over my face, they would ask yes/no questions that I could nod or shake my head to and supported me accordingly. Once our baby was out, they took the most amazing pictures (one of our friends asked if they were staged), and made sure we were set before heading out. After they headed out, my husband and I looked at each other and agreed hiring them was the best money we had ever spent in our lives. I seriously cannot imagine how it would have gone without them; Jourdan was absolutely essential in helping us have a very smooth labor and delivery.
