Testimonial for The Dedicated Doula Team- Doula + Photo + CBE ++
I can't say enough good things about Cari and Suzanne. They are incredibly supportive doulas, and they make a rock solid team. I was lucky to get to know them both over a couple months. Since I wanted to know the person I'd labor with (I was due around Christmas 2022), they took turns taking appointments with me. As a second-time mom, I felt pretty prepared but Cari and Suzanne surprised me with new resources and invaluable information that no one had shared before. They were instrumental in helping me stay healthy (before and after pregnancy) and find a delivery hospital and midwife practice that met my needs.
When the baby was two weeks late and I was admitted to hospital for an induction, Cari was there with bags of gummy bears, candles and a day's-worth of stories and exercises to pass the time. I remember that day very fondly (dare I say it, we had fun). Then in the wee hours of the morning, as I began to push, things got scary as the baby got stuck and an emergency OB team was rushed in. It was intense but Cari and my husband were there with me and I felt safe and heard. In the end, my son was safely delivered. In the hours, days, weeks and months that followed, Cari and Suzanne kept in touch to see how we were doing and offer their support. The icing on the cake of a wonderful birth experience was receiving a gallery of the most beautiful photos that Cari had taken that day. They were beyond what I expected, totally amazing. If we ever have another kid, Cari and Suzanne are the team I'd hire again in a heartbeat!!
