Testimonial for Beth Scheppke, CD (CHB), CBC
My partner and I loved having Beth as our doula for the home birth of our daughter. We would highly recommend her services to other expecting parents. As first-time parents, the experience of labor was quite a trip for us, but Beth’s steady, calm presence reassured us that everything was going well and we were making progress despite my repeated arguments that the baby was never coming out and perhaps I’d changed my mind about having kids anyway ??.
It’s hard to describe all the ways in which Beth impressed us – from the middle-of-the night phone support when labor started, to the physical and emotional support throughout a very long day, to working seamlessly and professionally with our midwives, to keeping me fed and hydrated and cleaning our apartment – I really don’t know how we would have had a baby without her! Beth also took discreet and unobtrusive photos and videos throughout the day (I was completely oblivious at the time) – I am truly grateful to have these unexpected mementos of a very special day!
On a personal note, Beth is someone with whom we felt immediately comfortable, and it was such a pleasure to get to know her. She is funny and relatable and feels like a friend. I will always look back on my labor and remember all the jokes we had between contractions! I hope Beth doesn’t go anywhere because I’d love to do it all again with her in a couple of years’ time!
