I found Juliet to be an exceptional doula during all steps of the birth process. She met with me twice before my delivery date and was able to make me feel more at ease about my upcoming c-section and new motherhood journey. I found that she was very approachable and flexible, and was open to answering as many questions as I needed to ask.
On my delivery day, she arrived with plenty of time before my scheduled c-section and was very supportive during the somewhat anxious period when my c-section was delayed until later in the day. During my daughter's delivery, she provided consistent reassurance and support, ensured that appropriate music was played and took wonderful photos of the whole process which I will treasure forever. After my daughter's delivery, she continued to stay by my side and offer support until my family support people arrived and took over. She was extremely attentive and took swift action to solve unexpected problems, such as finding a basin (which was unfortunately missing from the room) when I started to vomit post-surgery.
During the postpartum period, Juliet continued to provide exceptional support during her visits by caring for my daughter, assisting with cleaning, shopping and other household tasks and offering a listening ear. She also prepared a couple of excellent meals for me.
I would highly recommend Juliet as a doula and I wish her all the very best as she moves forward in her career.
