Let me just start by saying that Kizzy is an excellent doula, and if you can have her by your side, you are in great shape! We had the pleasure of working with her for our first child’s birth in May 2023. Her unassuming, kind, and lighthearted nature made it easy for us to share our fears, concerns, and ignorance with her. She took careful notes and prepared us for the big day. I must say, her tips and tricks to manage stress and physical pain work very well!
Kizzy was very generous with help throughout the process. We especially appreciate everything she did on the day of the birth – starting from providing us much needed emotional support to helping us make informed decisions in consultation with the doctors. Our child was in distress during my labor. This required frequent intervention. Kizzy knew exactly what to do – she helped the nurses get me in comfortable positions and this greatly helped relieve our child’s distress. I ended up needing an emergency c-section. Kizzy was present with us in the operation room and helped me and my husband stay calm, focused.
Kizzy is so very experienced, that she seemed to know exactly how the big day was going to unfold. She took detailed notes including the names of the doctors, nurses, what they recommended, what we said, how our daughter looked right after she was born, and how we reacted to it! Very sweet of her to convert these notes into a graphical story – something our daughter will undoubtedly find joy in reading!
I must say that Kizzy was available every time we looked for her – be it in person, or via text, or phone. We HIGHLY recommend her services!
