Testimonial for Arrity Deakin

Arrity was both our birth doula and postpartum doula.  She was a fabulous source of support throughout! She was very communicative during my third trimester and helped teach us exercises and stretches we could do to alleviate discomfort and help with the baby's positioning, and shared evidence-based resources for us to learn about different interventions / decisions we may have to make. At the hospital, Arrity took so much stress off our plates -- she navigated us to the delivery wing, got us settled in our room, and added layers of comfort we didn't even know we needed like adjusting lighting, drawing a bath, etc. When it came time to navigate different decisions, Arrity helped us though this, too.

We are also so grateful for the postpartum support Arrity provided us. She is one of the few doulas who provides overnight care, and having her come our first week home helped us catch up on much needed sleep and helped us reset to be more independent going forward. When Arrity came during the days, she jumped right into whatever was needed around the house, but more importantly--talked with us about our daughter and helped get us on a path as new parents with the tools we needed to care for our newborn. Above all, Arrity provided emotional support during this remarkable life event, and are so glad she was there for us for the entirety of the process--from pre-labor to delivery to post-partum recovery.
