Testimonial for Sara Wolfe Payne
Sara attended our birth in early December 2023. She was incredibly attentive and kept in mind our birth plan/wishes at all times. Sara came to our home during early labor (which ended up being hours) and eventually came to the hospital when our birth plan changed. She helped us prepare for the transition by consoling us and taking care of miscellaneous house tasks to ensure we had fewer things to worry about. It was so appreciated! Sara remained at our side for the duration of our 57-hour labor. Her presence provided the constant sense of familiarity that we needed while navigating our quickly changing situation. She helped us to move through various labor positions, provided hip compression during contractions, and was an incredible advocate for us when we could not advocate for ourselves. While all this occurred, she ensured we had time to process emotions for ourselves. On multiple occasions, she recommended we ask for alone time from the staff to give ourselves the space to think and process together. Looking back, this played a crucial role in helping us to stay connected in our decision-making process. We would highly recommend anyone looking for a doula to reach out to Sara.
