Testimonial for Katie White
We hired Katie for the birth of our first baby and I feel very lucky that we picked Katie to be a part of something so significant in our lives.
Katie met with us for prenatal appointments and walked us through any questions we had. She was so educated and made us feel at ease about the whole process. Then when I started showing labor signs, Katie walked me through what I was experiencing. She sent over positions for me to do to help my painful back labor before we headed to the hospital. She checked on us often and was there every step of the way.
Once we got to the hospital, she helped ease my pain through contractions by helping me labor in different positions and using other pain strategies. When I decided to get the epidural, she was incredibly supportive. I felt so much guidance from her during labor. We went through a couple scary moments and Katie helped explain what was going on. She helped my husband find his role in birth as he was someone who was nervous to be a part of it.
Her presence in the room was never overbearing to the doctors and nurses. Instead, she fit seamlessly in with my birthing team. My husband and I both agree we could not have done it without her.
After my daughter was born, she sat with me at 3am in the morning, helping me latch her and teaching me how to breastfeed. I believe my success in breastfeeding is due to her. Then, she came over for a postpartum visit and answered all my first time mom questions and help calm my anxieties.
If you’re questioning whether you need a doula, I would highly recommend adding Katie to your birth team. So many people I know have had traumatic birth stories and having Katie by our side helped our birth be beautiful and perfect.
As a bonus, Katie took many pictures and wrote the birth story of our daughter, something I will forever cherish. We will absolutely be using Katie for our next birth. We cannot say enough good things about her!
