Testimonial for Jaimee Hunter, CLD
When I first hired Jaimee's business partner and midwife, Christina, I wasn't even sure exactly what a doula was or if I would want to spend the money on utilizing her services.
After attending one of the childbirth educational classes titled "Comfort Measures" where Jaimee and Christina taught my husband and I (along with 3 other couples) different comfort poses to use during the third trimester and active labor-- I was convinced that we would find a way to hire her as our Doula. Jamie's kind-heartedness and loving spirit is undeniable when you meet her. She exudes care and comfort. I knew my husband would feel less pressure during the birth if I had Jamie there to support me and him and offer advice and hands-on care with me getting into different laboring positions. She was an absolute amazing caretaker during labor.
I have this specific memory of her pouring hot water on my lower back while in the birthing pool as I breathed thru the increasingly more intense contractions and thinking clearly "Wow. That feels amazing and I'm so thankful she's here."
I had the best possible home birth experience and I wholeheartedly attribute that to my stellar care team. Jaimee not only supported me physically and emotionally during labor, she assisted in the preparation prior to labor, for example, making a "lasagna bed" and other to-dos for hubby and she helped with the clean up afterwards including treating my linens and starting my laundry. She even made me healing poultice packs and refrigerated them for my after-care. She was an invaluable part of my home birth experience and in hindsight, I wouldn't have wanted to do it without her. Highly recommend. 10/10.
