Testimonial for Madison Herrera

I will start by saying that looking back, I truly feel like there is no way I could've made it through labor without Maddie being by my side! My husband and I were fortunate enough to have Maddie assist us in the birth of our first child. My ultimate goal was to have an unmedicated hospital birth, and as soon as we met Maddie we knew she would be the perfect doula to help us achieve the labor we were hoping for. She was so kind and knowledgeable and gave us lots of information to help us feel prepared and create our birth plan. Since this was my first experience with labor there were so many unknowns, but Maddie was always quick to provide clarity and reassurance. When it came to the actual labor, she was so supportive - I felt that her presence alone resulted in the hospital staff taking extra special care of me because of how well she advocated for my needs. She helped me into different positions to keep labor progressing, provided pain relief techniques during contractions, and continuously provided verbal encouragement, reminding me of my goals when things got hard. When my baby arrived, I couldn't believe that I had actually just accomplished my goal of an unmedicated birth! Her being with us also took so much pressure off of my husband, allowing him to focus on comforting me and even helping him sneak in some rest during the long night. My whole family was impressed with Maddie and so thankful that she was there for us during such a special and intense time. I will forever be raving about how amazing Maddie is to anyone who will listen! Choosing to have her by your side through your labor will be the best decision you make, and I am so grateful that we found her!
