Testimonial for Tanya (Tatiana) Ponomar
Tatiana is an incredible, caring, and very knowledgeable doula. I met her at one of the doula meeting events that she organizes from time to time, and decided that I need her during my pregnancy and delivery. I felt her support throughout my pregnancy when we met several times to discuss my birth plan and expectations from doula service. She also always found time to answer my questions about baby care, and lactation after the baby was born which was invaluable help for me as it was my first baby, and I had a lot of questions and some problems with lactation.
During the labor, Tatiana was extremely helpful! I had an unexpectedly long and difficult labor with a lot of interventions due to my high blood pressure. It would have been very scary for me if she hadn’t been there. I had an induction that lasted for almost 3 days, and Tatiana was supporting me during those days. She helped me to go through very intense and painful Pitocin contractions, and when the induction didn’t progress as we expected and I decided to go with a c-section, she was with me in the operating room. I can’t stress enough how Tatiana helped me during my labor, and when I am ready for the second child, I will have it only with her!
