Testimonial for Erin Stanton
We love Erin! My husband and I were very nervous about having a baby. I had struggled with anxiety in the past and wasn't sure if that would play a part in my birthing story. I also wanted to do an unmedicated birth and researched ways of pain management, but was still nervous that I wouldn't know what to do in the moment. For us, having a doula completely changed our birthing experience for the better. Erin especially was very knowledgable and caring. She met with us a few times before the birth and explained every detail, something the researcher in me appreciated. I went into labor feeling prepared and ready. On the day of our birth, I was considering getting an epidural until Erin joined us at the hospital; she expertly helped me with the pain management and I was able to continue with an unmedicated birth. Erin brought my husband a coffee and made sure he was taken care of as well, that for me was the best moment, to know that Erin cared not only about me, but also the person in this life I love the most and was doing this with. After our birth, Erin met with us again and shared more resources we needed at that time, such as a counselor and lactation consultant. Lastly, I would just encourage anyone on the fence about getting a doula, to just get a doula. Their expertise and calming presence cannot be overlooked. We recommend it to all our friends that it is worth it. A doula is there to focus on your needs outside of what a doctor or nurse can provide, you do not have to do this alone.
