Hiring Stephanie to be our doula was one of the best investments my husband I made. We were expecting our first baby, and Stephanie was fantastic. Not only did she teach us all about what to expect during labor and the inverventions we might have to navigate, but she responded quickly to any questions we had (text/call). Most importantly, Stephanie was with us during the 2+ days of labor. I got induced, and Stephanie arrived shortly after to the hospital. She stayed up all night with me, in an uncomfortable recliner (that didn't recline!) and guided me through what was happening, as well as did anything I needed her to do to help me get more comfortable. She helped me breathe through the contractions on the medicine ball, she fed me ice chips after I got the epidural, and she was right there supporting my legs along with my husband and the nurses and midwife during active delivery. Stephanie made my delivery experience an incredibly memorable and positive one. Without her I would have been so much more anxious and scared. But she made me feel confident and ready and strong to push through (literally). I would recommend Stephanie in a heart beat! My husband I are so grateful for her.
