Testimonial for Tara Martinsen
I cannot reccommend Tara enough!! We were lucky enough to not only have Tara as our doula but we also took a hypnobirthing class led by Tara and these were two of the best decisions we made prepping for labor and delivery. Tara helped ease any anxiousness or uncertainties leading up to the labor of our first child. She takes the time to truly get to know you and your spouse and asks the important questions. Leading up to labor Tara put our minds at ease and was an incredible resources and support person. In the delivery room Tara truly exceeded all expectations, she goes above and beyond in every way and Tara helped make our labor and delivery experience such a positive experiece. The delivery room was calm and Tara blended in seamlessly with my husband and mom that were in the room. Tara helped dictate the atmosphere and ensured that the room remained calm and serene, at every turn she was reassuring and helped me understand what stage of labor we were in and what was happening next (I asked a lot of questions during labor but if you don't want these answers Tara won't bombard you with details or unneccesary explanations). Tara's toolkit for labor had everything you could ever need and I firmly believe my labor experience was such a positive, empowering experience because of Tara's help in the birth class and her help on the day of. After the delivery Tara went so far as to go and get us dinner so we had time with our new baby. Once home, Tara came over to assist with my baby's latch and help me with breastfeeding, with a new mom gift in hand. I truly cannot safe enough good things about Tara and cannot imagine giving birth without Tara by our side!! When Tara left the hospital the nurses continued to sing her praises and let me know, even though I already knew, that we had one of the best doulas they had ever seen. If my recommendation isn't enough, the nurses at Mercy Gilbert recommended Tara just as much as I do and were in awe of Tara.
