Our experience working with Danae as our doula has been nothing short of amazing! As first time parents, we knew we wanted additional support and guidance throughout the pregnancy and birth.
Our ideal birth plan centered around a birthing center instead of a hospital setting, so it was very comforting to know that we had an advocate and additional support with us through the entire process regardless of where we ended up.
From phone calls and meetings during pregnancy through postnatal check-ins, we felt very cared for and respected through a number of decisions and situations.
Danae took the time to get to know us as people, not just our birth plan preferences, which helped tremendously as we navigated prodromal labor into active labor - and knowing the right time to make the move to the birth center from home.
Her attention to detail and support in labor and through the birth of our child was pivotal in making the experience empowering rather than stressful.
We would work with Danae again in a heartbeat!!
