We had a really wonderful experience with Shannon. She is very organized and knowledgeable which was a huge reason for me to consider hiring her, and then once I met her I was certain she was the doula for us. She's very calming, relaxed, and kind, with also being straightforward and full of resources. We hired Shannon for the birth of my third. My first two pregnancies went fine but I wanted the peace of mind of having someone else to advocate for me and her wealth of knowledge was just what we wanted in assisting us. Baby came fast but her presence and guidance in the labor room helped both of us navigate the chaos of a quick delivery. I am happy to say that with her help I had my first delivery without an epidural and a bunch of pitocin. Shannon was also so great postpartum, helping us out with tried and true references and hanging with our sons so we could have a less crazy morning acclimating to life with 3 kiddos. And our sons also loved her!
Thank you, Shannon! We would definitely hire you again (maybe if Matt gets his wish of having 4)!
