Testimonial for Esther Whitney

Esther is an experienced, extremely knowledgeable doula who was comforting, accessible and appropriately present at every stage, before during and after the birth of my son.

She offered many resources, preformed research, provided printed resources, aromatherapy, exceptional ongoing breathing guidance and counter-pressure during labor, and with my permission she took memorable priceless photos during my labor and post birth.

Esther advocated for me when I couldn’t, recalling important details I had shared and communicating them to medical staff when I was unable to. She suggested insightful queries that I could pose to nurses and doctors regarding my medical situations. She listened to and supported my goals throughout, understanding my complicated situation without judgement.

She helped me to put things into context and to process my birthing experience postpartum by remembering and reminding me of important details to help complete my memories.

I will never forget her empathy and consistent support during 2 hospital admissions, 3 epidural placements, 4 hours of pushing and while I had a c-section. I will be forever grateful that she helped me so much during the most painful and rewarding experience of my life.
