Where do I even begin! Arianna is first of all a dear friend of mine and my husbands. This made our entire doula experience all the more special of course. We always felt the most comfortable to ask any questions. She provided so much educated and wise information, she was always available to us when we needed her. She constantly made us feel confident in the decisions we were making for ourselves and our baby. My husband and I both felt really prepared for any circumstance that pregnancy or birth could bring thanks to Arianna. Thank goodness for that because our birth ended up being a bit scary and unexpected. I ended up going into an emergency c-section at 38 weeks pregnant. When I was told by my doctors that day I would need to have a c-section, I felt completely calm and prepared for what was ahead of me only because of Arianna. My birth ended up being a very positive and beautiful experience. Arianna was by and my husbands side within minutes of me calling her to tell her the news. She was a huge sense of comfort and encouragement that day. Arianna is a natural doula, she is one step ahead of everyone and knows exactly what mama needs. She was the ultimate advocate. Not only was she everything we needed during pregnancy and birth, but also during our early postpartum days that felt so raw and fragile. My husband and I talk about it all the time, we couldn't have done it without her guidance. She helped with very tangible things around our home, with our baby, with me as a new mom. She knew the practical and important things that needed to be done while also paying very close attention to our emotional needs. I always felt like she knew what I needed just by looking at me. I felt so cared for by her. Looking back at my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, Arianna played such a beautiful role in all of it and truly was a bright light for us. It was an absolute gift to have her be a part of this time in our life. We will never forget it!
