Testimonial for Kirsten Dudley CD (DTI) Lamaze CBE

We absolutely loved working with Kirsten for the births of both of our children.  As a first time IVF mom during a global pandemic, I had a lot of anxiety about my prenatal care and birth.  Kristen was so helpful in navigating and contextualizing options at each step of the process.  She was always so cheerful, upbeat, and knowledgable and so generous with her time to talk through whatever was going on.  I also really apprecated her international perspectives on prenatal care.  It made me feel much more relaxed about everything when I talked to her. 

When I got pregnant again, I knew immediately we wanted to work with her again.  It was one of the first pieces we put in place for our second kid, and I'm glad we did!  She was just as great to work with the second time around.  We especially appreciated all her first-hand advice about navigating life with a new baby and a toddler.  My second kid was transverse until about 38 weeks, and she had all sorts of advice and exercises I could do to help him flip head down (and once he did flip with an ECV, stay head down).  She helped me mentally prepare for what we could do if we had needed contingency plans.  She was so calming and helpful. 

I also appreciated how professional she was at every stage of both our birth experiences.  Because of covid, we were never able to tour either maternity ward where we delivered, and the regulations seemed to change constantly.  Kirsten always knew the latest and greatest.  With our second, she even knew that the hospital did not provide a water bottle in L&D, so we could know to bring our own!  She knew all the medical staff at the hospitals and had a great rapport with them. 

We loved Kirsten!  I wholeheartely recommend her as a doula!  If we were having more kids (we're done), I would definitely work with her again!
