Testimonial for Kaylen Ardiles-Cervera (CD, DONA)
I found Kaylen in the DoulaMatch net after I took a course from NYU hospital "preparing for birth" they suggested the website and I scroll through different profiles till I find Kaylen. What I'm trying to make notice is that I went in blind, but as soon as I read her description I heard her words, and I kenw it that she will be the right match for us. My husband and I, we are from Argentina, we were alone here in NYC so we knew that we want a person to accompany us, understands our goal to bring our preciuos baby to the world. We did a zoom call to talk and we didn't doubt it a second we just said we want you to help us, guide us, in this process, and of course it was a plus that she is a native speaker. From the first moment, we feel listened, we sense her kindness, comprehension and also she guide us very well to all the process with a lot of information that she provides us through every meeting and the material that she submit after every class so we could re-read and also make prints of importants things to have in mind. When the moment arrives, Kaylen was there by my side helping me to breath, assisting me with massages, becuase at the beggining I was planning a non medicated birth. But because of I got an induction, the waves of pain were so hard that I ended up asking for epidural. Even though she was always supporting every decision that I made, very kindly. I remember her also holding my hand during the pushes, encouranging me, empowering me. I will be always thankful for that, and I always remember that moments, and of course I will call her right away if a second baby will come. If you are looking for a doula, here you will find the right one, but also if you are looking for a mother, a sister, a friend, here she is, I felt that way. Thanks Kaylen.
