My first experience giving birth left me frightened and anxious. With my second, my cousin told me about her doula, Angie. I reluctantly agreed to meet Angie. Upon meeting her I immediately felt her warmth and kindness. Upon speaking with her I knew she was exactly the kind of person I could allow into my birth space. I could not have had my son at home without her. She had a way about her; her words; her voice; even the sweet smell of her hair. As our doula she brought tons of useful information, tools and skills. She brought topics to our attention that we had not considered before. Angie, you are tremendous love!
As we prepare for our third baby (another homebirth) this fall we are hugely relieved to find that Angie moved back to the bay area and will be our doula again!! We wouldn't want any other doula. She's just that great.
