Testimonial for Cayla Olp
I met Cayla when I was about 36 weeks pregnant and didn't have much info about what a doula was. She took the time with me to make sure I fully understood her scope and what all she could do for me before, during and after labor. She was extremely easy to talk to, very friendly, and very focused on making sure I would be taken care of how I wanted to be during all of those phases. She checked up on me weekly, gave me tips and advice often and saved me a trip to the hospital when I was in early labor. I ended up needing to be induced due to medical reasons, she came to the hospital with me and helped explain different induction techniques. She empowered me to speak up for myself and ask for a different method of induction that I was more comfortable with than the one the doctor wanted to do. This helped me have the labor experience I wanted! During contractions, I used the comb to help manage my pain, thanks to her recommendation. She also provided me physical comfort while my husband was able to provide more emotional support (this is what I wanted, she was very clear she would do what I wanted to make sure I was comfortable). After labor, she stayed long enough to make sure we were comfortable! Then once we got home she did check in a couple of times, which was very appreciated! Overall, Cayla was amazing, always made sure I was comfortable and doing what I needed. If I ever have another baby, I will definitely be asking her to be my doula again!
