Testimonial for Jessica Gillan: Bellies, Boobs, Babies & Bliss
When considering who to have as a part of our birth team, we knew that an extra set of hands was important, but someone who has knowledge of every birth setting was imperative. At the time that we chose to have Jessica as a part of our birth story, I hadn’t yet chosen where delivery would take place or who my provider was going to be. From the consult meeting to our birth day, Jessica was always available to answer questions. Fast forward to “game day”, my husband was the one in communication with her and she was ready to go as soon as we felt as though we wanted an extra support during labor. As soon as she walked through the door she was prepared for everything. She gave my husband a, much needed, break and allowed for him to rest while quietly observing and timing my contractions. She was also in communication with my midwife, which was a great blessing. Throughout labor she made sure I was rested, nourished, and hydrated.
For the dad who may be on the fence about having a doula present for birth - Jessica will not overstep. She respects and honors the individual desires of the couple and really provides support for both mom and dad during labor and after delivery. My husband is so thankful to have had Jessica at our birth for the extra support. It’s a big day for mom and dad and rest is important for both.
