Testimonial for Shari Aizenman
Having Shari with us during our birthing time was a bit like having a mom/big sister with you (in her caring, compassionate way, and your ability to feel comfortable with her) - yet without the emotional baggage that a family member might bring...but with the experience of having attended so many births. There are really no surprises with her anymore, and that experience is what led us to choose her as our doula. I must say, her massage skills are an amazing gift too - especially when having a lot of back labor. Having Shari with us during the arrival of our son into the world was an amazing gift and we could not have asked for anyone better to help usher us into our role as new parents.
I like to say that Shari served as our patient/family/baby advocate, our voice of reason, our sounding board, the instructional guide for my husband, information source pre- and post- partum, person who enabled us to have a quality first feeding with our son, and helped to make sure we were doing things right. Not only that, but post-partum, Shari was super responsive in getting us in touch with individuals who could help us with any and all questions/issues we had.
It's almost impossible to put into words all that Shari is and does. Let me just add that one of the reasons we decided to choose Shari was her strong, confident personality. That strong personality helped keep us on the path we wanted for us and our baby, and ensured that we had the best care imaginable. We are forever grateful to Shari!
