Testimonial for Jo Ann Bishop CD/PCD(DONA) Body Ready Method Pro
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Jo Ann as our doula for the birth of our child, and we couldn't be more grateful for her support. Jo Ann was incredibly attentive to both our needs, ensuring that our feelings and opinions were always considered. She prioritized our well-being and the health of our baby above all else.
Prior to delivery, Jo Ann was a valuable resource and encouraged me to "trust my gut" regarding my OBGYN provider, who had not been as receptive as I had hoped. Jo Ann recommended several doctors who she had positive experiences previously, one of which we transferred to at 20 weeks. This was incredibly helpful as our new provider ensured we were informed and comfortable with our entire pregnancy and birthing process, including supporting us in our decision to go 12 days past the estimated due date, and during the birth to reduce the epidural to enable more awareness of contractions.
During the delivery, Jo Ann proved to be an invaluable resource. She not only assisted the nurses with various positions but also provided clear, evidence-based guidance throughout the entire process. Her focus on science and factual information, rather than personal opinions, helped us make informed decisions and feel confident in the care we were receiving. As I had an induction, which was not originally in my birth plan, her support was key in ensuring I felt in control of the process.
Jo Ann truly advocated for us every step of the way, demonstrating a genuine commitment to our best interests. Her presence made a significant difference in our birthing experience, and we wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and compassionate doula.
