Testimonial for Hannah Hardy
We worked with Hannah as a birth and postpartum doula, and had an incredible experience. Hannah set up prenatal sessions with us before the birth, was present through our intense labor and delivery (40 hours), and supported us through postpartum for 6 weeks. We would not have made it through that birth experience without her.
Hannah has an amazing balance of having a science-based philosophy and creating space for her clients to have the birth and newborn journey the way they want to have. As first time parents, we had no idea what we were getting into. Hannah’s prenatal sessions were clear, thorough and simple enough for us to understand and prepared us perfectly for what was to come. For example, we never believed that it was possible to have a natural birth (without epidural), but we were able to do it because of Hannah’s guidance and support. Hannah’s presence throughout my labor and delivery created a safe space for us to make the choices that were important to us, without judgement.
Our postpartum journey was challenging in that momma was not able to produce enough breastmilk for the baby. Hannah’s support and guidance every step of the way helped us be less guilt-ridden and enabled to do what was best for our daughter within the constraints of our situation.
We are incredibly grateful to Hannah for her presence and support throughout our birth and postpartum journey, and would recommend her to folks considering a doula in a heartbeat. Thank you Hannah for your passion and for going above and beyond for your clients! We so deeply appreciate you.
