Testimonial for Shelly Paskowitz

During the unexpected challenges of my third baby's birth, Shelly stood out as an exceptional doula. Her deep knowledge and calm demeanor were pivotal when our birth plan changed due to complications. She adeptly navigated the options, communicating with hospital staff, and reassured me during the induction process, which I initially feared due to the potential effects of Pitocin. Her presence was especially crucial as I was alone; she was my sole source of support, guiding me through the intense moments.

Shelly's expertise shone when labor was stalled; her targeted exercises effectively engaged the baby, catalyzing the labor process. Her ability to advocate for my preferences with the hospital staff, ensuring a personalized care experience and protecting the precious golden hour post-birth, was invaluable and her guidance in focusing on breathing techniques significantly eased my labor experience. Impressively, the birth was completely unmedicated, and thanks to Shelly's guidance, it was accomplished without tears or any other complications.

Conclusion: Shelly's blend of emotional support and professional knowledge made a profound difference in the birth of my baby. Her pleasant demeanor, coupled with her skill in managing both the physical and emotional aspects of childbirth, makes her an invaluable asset to any expecting mother. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking a compassionate, knowledgeable, and supportive doula.
