Testimonial for Brianne Crisanti
Bri’s support during my pregnancy, birth and postpartum was unbelievably helpful and I am beyond grateful we invested in her services. Before pregnancy and early on I didn’t think I would need or want a doula. However, as pregnancy progressed my mental wellbeing declined as hormones changed, I needed to seriously make a plan for how I could support myself for the rest of pregnancy and birth. I met Bri in prenatal yoga and thought it would be good to explore doula services more as I thought having a “coach” was exactly what I needed to remove some of my fears about the process of pregnancy and birth. Bri did that for me and my spouse so we could really be present during the birth of our baby as we knew we had a strong advocate and expert in our corner even though we had lots of trust in our medical team, we still needed a guide through the whole process because there is a lot happening!
Consistently, Bri emotionally met us where we were at with our energy level, what concerns/questions we had and what we were needing during birth. She made space for our wishes but if we wanted her opinion/expertise she would give it which I appreciated as I had never given birth before. I had one goal for birth and that was to not be fearful and the prep that Bri offered and delivered during birth knocked that goal out of the water. The knowledge that I had someone for questions, physical and emotional needs too made me feel very confident no matter how our birth progressed. This confidence also helped my spouse feel less pressure about supporting me as he knew he also had support from Bri which only made him a better partner during birth as well.
I cannot recommend having a doula enough. More, I cannot recommend Bri enough and I look back in our birth with such positivity and I do attribute that to her specific coaching.
Bri - from the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU!!!
