Testimonial for Joanna Guzman

I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support we received from Joanna. From the moment we met her, we knew she was going to be an integral part of our birth experience. Her warmth, knowledge, and genuine care were apparent from the start. Joanna supported and respected my birth plan wishes while providing us with invaluable education which attributed to helping me feel confident and empowered for the big day. When labor began, Joanna's calming presence and reassurance were exactly what we needed. My labor ramped up rather quickly, as soon as she got to our house she saw I was fully dilated and was quick to act. She anticipated our needs before we even knew them ourselves and rode with us to the birthing center, having her in the car helped set my mind at ease. Joanna knew I wanted to labor in a tub and she ensured the birthing center had the tub ready for me upon arrival as well as ensuring our wishes were met while seamlessly collaborating with the midwife and birthing assistants. Her expertise in comfort measures, positioning, and relaxation techniques made the entire process smoother and more manageable. After our baby was born, Joanna continued to offer support and guidance. Her postpartum visit was incredibly helpful as we adjusted to life with a newborn, as she provided invaluable breastfeeding support and practical self-care tips. Additionally, I added the placenta and umbilical cord art keepsake to my package, she did an awesome job, it turned out beautifully and is such a special memento. Having Joanna by our side was truly a blessing. She not only supported me but also my partner, ensuring that we both felt empowered and involved throughout the journey. We are forever grateful for her presence and expertise. If you're considering hiring a doula, look no further than Joanna. Her knowledge, encouragement, and comforting words helped us navigate and prepare for the intensity of labor with more ease.
