Testimonial for Patrycja (Patty) Drozd CD(DONA)
Hiring Patty was the best decision we made for our first birth! My husband and I had interviewed 5 other doulas, Patty being the last and as soon as we met her we knew she was the one! She spent so much time upfront getting to know us and what our wishes were for our birth and that really stood out. Plus we could tell she has a lot of knowledge and experience and really knows how to navigate birth.
Prior to labor she sent us a ton of research on topics to explore and ways to prepare for labor. At 37 weeks she came to our house to meet us in person, discuss our birth plan and to practice different pain management techniques before the big day.
Once things started happening at home she was completely available and communicated with us the entire time on how to progress my labor and reassure me that I was strong! From the point when my labor started to when I was pushing she was physically, mentally and emotionally there to support us the whole way! She pulled all the tricks out of her bag from essential oils, mood lighting, rebozo, different positions during labor to manage pain etc which is exactly what we were looking for. I could not have gotten through labor without her constant hip squeezes late into the night. My husband and I felt really close with her by the end of it all, she is such an awesome human and we can't have another baby without her!
We love you Patty, thank you so much!!
