Testimonial for Jennifer Symes
Jennifer was calm, supportive and knowledgeable during my pregnancy and throughout my labor and birth experience. We met late in my pregnancy and we built a trusting relationship quickly and easily. Jennifer brought a solid yet respectful energy in the delivery room, where I was able to have the natural, unmedicated birth that I wanted. My pregnancy went post-dates and Jennifer adeptly guided my and my husband's understanding of risks, asking BRAIN questions and what I could potentially expect from making different choices. As this was my first birth experience, Jennifer helped demystify the experience while simultaneously helping me feel empowered and supported. She also integrated seamlessly with my husband, who was my labor partner during delivery, and with the labor and delivery staff at Beverly Hospital. Jennifer continued to be a source of support post-partum, checking in regularly via text and connecting us with an outstanding local IBCLC when my daughter was having difficulty nursing. I highly recommend Jennifer and am very grateful she was our doula.
