Without a doubt, Ethel's calling is to be a doula. This was my second baby and second time using a doula, but our first time having Ethel join us as our birth doula - and everything about this labor and delivery experience was different and positive on every level.
Ethel brought a wonderfully calming presence, a lightness to her approach, and reminded us to have fun during the whole process. Along with my husband, we formed the perfect team - following Ethel's lead that took into account what was important to me and to our baby. She knew all the tricks (without being overwhelming) like applying accupressure, suggesting movement and various positions, and being a nurturing and supportive partner - which resulted in having my dream VBAC. Even better than I could have imagined to be honest. My only regret - not having Ethel as our birth doula for our first.
