Testimonial for Caroline Overby, CD(DONA)/PCD(DONA), CLC
I don't know how I would have gotten through my labor without Caroline.
From our first interview, both my husband and I got a good impression of Caroline, and asked her to be our doula based on that good gut feeling. So glad we trusted our gut! Caroline has the perfect balance of professional and informative, while also getting personal and discussing important intimate details. Even though we had a set number of official meetups with her, she was always available for a question or worry and answered my text messages promptly and with great detail. You don't need to be shy discussing any topic with Caroline; she is warm, understanding, non-judgmental, and supportive.
When the Big Day came, she met us within the time parameters that she promised. She coached me through breath and movement, stayed right by my side through contractions, and helped my husband find his role. I felt empowered during my contractions because of her guidance. When I couldn't move after my epidural, Caroline helped me find positions to make me more comfortable and ease my labor. After a while, though, my labor stalled and things strayed VERY far from the birth plan that Caroline and I had created together. When the time came to make big decisions, and I froze in fear and sadness, she was the comfort I needed. She made me feel like a good mom, where before I just felt scared.
I know I can always turn to Caroline with questions; I recommend her doula services to any future parent. Whether you feel very prepared or not prepared at all, Caroline will meet you where you are with knowledge and great compassion.
