Testimonial for Ari Eisen
Ari is a fantastic doula. Ari is a highly knowledgeable and thoughtful person who went above and beyond to help me achieve my goal of having an unmedicated, natural birth experience in a large hospital.
I had an overnight labor at the hospital, and Ari was there the whole time. Ari brought a calm and positive presence to the birthing experience and guided me through different positions, which helped me relax during the most intense contractions. When I struggled during the pushing stage, Ari guided me to make deep sounds, which was highly effective and made the pushing a lot easier.
Ari also has excellent communication skills and was a great advocate for me at the hospital. She not only collaborated very well with my husband to support me during labor but also worked closely with the healthcare team to make sure I got what I needed. For instance, when Ari knew I preferred to use the squat bar for pushing, she communicated with the healthcare team to ensure that they were aware of my preference and that they installed the squat bar before the pushing started. I could focus on the labor without getting distracted thanks to Ari's attention and good judgment.
I could not have gone through the whole birthing experience without Ari's help and I would confidently recommend Ari to anyone looking to work with a doula.
