Testimonial for Elizabeth Addeo CD(DONA), LCCE

Pregnancy, birth and postpartum are uniquely personal experiences and during this time in your life you might find yourself looking for education and support that you can't quite articulate or find. I was unsatisfied with the level of support I had from my OBGYN office which ultimately led me to hiring Liz (Elizabeth) as our doula. Liz was the best support my husband and I could have ever had during this journey. She took the time to get to know us as a couple and curated a personalized pregnancy, delivery and postpartum educational experience to meet our individual needs. She was a wealth of information and a great resource to counter the misinformation and fear that is spread vastly across the internet and amongst women. My husband and I felt prepared for pregnancy, delivery and postpartum. She was available to my husband and I by phone or text 24/7 and if I needed to see her in person, she would have been there. I went into labor in the middle of the night, and she provided calming, thoughtful support and advice over the phone at 1am. She talked me through a series of positioning (which we had practiced at appointments leading up to labor) to help position the baby as he descended into my pelvis. She or her partner were at my side the entire labor advocating my birth plan to the team and presenting me with the status of my labor to further inform the next decisions. She supported my husband as well. She made sure he ate dinner, understood what was going on and that he knew I was safe, although I looked very uncomfortable. Hiring a doula will greatly impact your pregnancy and birth experience and hiring Liz specifically is a decision you would never regret. She is the 2nd person I am going to tell the next time I become pregnant.
