Testimonial for Leah Kohlstrom, CBD, CCBE. CLC
When we were looking for a doula, we hoped for someone who could direct us to resources and provide emotional support during labor. Leah surpassed any expectation, and is nothing short of exceptional. She is kind, knowledgeable, and empowering. While working with her, she will give you such personalized attention and care, you will feel deeply understood and supported in whatever choices are right for your family. She provided us tangible resources, emotional support, and connection on such a deep level that her presence alone gave us a sense of calm. Prior to labor, her discussions helped prepare us- especially around nerves, as it is our first child, so much so that in labor all those concerns melted away. It allowed for a complete release of them. (But even they hadn't, she would have been there to guide us through it.) During labor, when she walked into the room, it filled us with a feeling of peace. Her experience and ability to connect with people, seemed to give her the ability to anticipate or respond to needs without them being verbalized. (She's very humble though, she may tell you that might not be true, but for us it was!) Post birth, she listened to us talk about our experience, supported breastfeeding, checked in with us constantly, and, maybe most importantly, reminded us that we were doing a great job and are the perfect parents for our baby. Connecting with Leah absolutely lead to a more informed, supported and beautiful experience and transition into parenthood. We will be forever grateful.
