Testimonial for Odessa Bates, MA, CD, CPD, CPES
We have worked with Odessa for the births of both our daughters now. The fact that we returned to work with her again speaks for itself! Our experience with her this second time around was just as transformative for our pregnancy and birth as it was the first time.
Odessa responds promptly to any questions. I personally appreciate her ability to share her wealth of knowledge without bomboarding her clients. When you need her, she is there.
When it came time for the birth Odessa was there for us every step of the way. Her skills with the Spinning Babies technique are exceptional, and I am convinced that her gentle coaching in this method had enormous positive impacts on both of my daughters' deliveries.
After the birth, I engaged Odessa's services for placenta encapsulation. I cannot speak highly enough of this incredible use of the placenta. If you are even considering this, my advice is DO IT. It is the best money I have ever spent on myself. My energy levels and mood improved noticeably within 24 hours of beginning to take the capsules. My milk supply is very healthy and robust, I have more than enough for my baby. And my internal healing accelerated as soon as I began these miracle capsules. After both births bleeding resolved quickly and I started feeling so much more like myself in a matter of days.
Odessa is a highly skilled and experienced doula, and our family recommends her whole-heartedly! Thank you, Odessa, for helping to hold a safe and supportive space for our girls to be born into.
