Testimonial for Olivia van Bommel
Me and my wife had Olivia as our doula for our very first daugher! Right from the start Olivia showed a sincerity and investment in our journey that created a great atmosphere for discussion. In our pre-birth meetings we talked not just about the birthing process itself, but about parenthood as a whole. Being a mother herself, she had a great baseline to assess thoughts and emotions about the upcoming life change. She helped cultivate a peace and excitement about the big day. For that big day, Olivia was everything we could have wanted and more. We had a home birth and she was critical to getting the space ready for us as my wife went into labour. Olivia was keen to assist me physically as we did what we could to alliviate the contraction pain. She also was a potent cheerleader, helping restore confidence when my wife was getting discouraged. Afterwards, Olivia stayed and really tidied up the place quite nicely - which was considerable work! Overall, her personality and presence was one that added so much to our birth experience, and I would recommend anyone looking for a doula to book Olivia. Thank you Olivia for everything!
