Testimonial for Haley Lawler

We worked with A Brighter Birth for our birth class and doula support for my wife’s first delivery. We originally were booked with another doula but due to her being sick we had a string of alternate doulas come through to support Claire. Haley Lawler came in after a couple of other doulas for the final and most intense stretch of the delivery.

Haley was precisely the person we needed to provide non-judgemental support for Claire through her choice to get an epidural and dealing with protracted pushing over four hours. Claire needed multiple intervensions from the attending OB, including a vacuum assist. Haley was a consistent source of reassurance and a core care team member as circumstances moved further from Claire's birth preferences.

Haley also provided a postpartum visit that was deeply meaningful. Her grace, knowledge, and caring manner completely changed our understanding of Claire’s birth experience for the better. Haley's perspective gave us new insight and corrected a false understanding we had about the birth. In her visit she helped our healing by reducing tension and dissapointment in our home after an adverse birth experience.

Beyond the perspective she brought, her advice and counsel on practical matters was immediately helpful and has us on a path to tackle minor difficulties with breastfeeding and sleep.

In summary, Haley is a treasure and clearly is deeply committed to the work of being a doula. I would recommend her to anyone in Richmond as their doula.
