Testimonial for Tia Dowling-Ketant, CD, CLC
Tia in portuguese means auntie. This alone was the sign for me. Pandemic time hit right after our firt meeting, when I was only 6 weeks pregnant. So lucky I was to trust her to guide us through a beautiful, gentle and amazing birth at Metropolitan hospital back in 2020. Her love and support to me, my husband and my newborn son, was so important we that we met again in 2023! My second (and last) baby was born at a birthing center. Again, I could not have done it all without her help. For both kids, my memories of Tia are the most special. She takes care of it all. She helps you sticking to your birth plan (if that's what you wish), reminds your husband to take a walk, for you to drink water, to sit in the toilet, to eat and to smell your baby, when se is fresh out of you. She holds space for your emotions, holds you hand when it hurts, she is what you need. If I ever done this again, she would be the one by my side with my husband. They are my team ?? we live you Tia. I am glad I have so many great memories with you!
