Testimonial for Kaylen Ardiles Cervera
When we interviewed Kaylen, she was warm and filled us confidence and we immediately knew she was the right choice for us. She answered all our questions knowledgeably, and even knew specifics about many local hospitals. Prior to birth we had two pre-birthing classes with her which helped us to make informed decisions.
When labor started, we texted Kaylen, telling her that contractions were becoming more intense and frequent. She was able to assess we were not in true labor, and then told us she would check in on us throughout the night into the next day. Kaylen was right, and contractions did not become more regular until the next day. When true labor started, she traveled to our apartment to help manage labor pains. Her presence ensured that this period was calm and manageable, and even recommended that we nap before contractions picked up. Only when she determined that it was time to head to the hospital did we leave. We were in good spirits and felt ready. Upon arrival the hospital, staff determined that we were already 6cm dilated!
Kaylen stayed with us at the hospital through what would have been an extraordinarily lonely night. She presented choices for birthing positions, and ways to help the labor progress. Without her we would have felt lost, and very scared. She ensured that both of us were engaged and supported. Her confidence in knowing where we were in labor, and the choices we had, helped to keep us informed and make the best possible choices. She noticed that we were ready to push even before the medical staff, and went to get them for us. Once they came in, it was a whirlwind of activity, but Kaylen was right there with us providing her calm and steady presence. Another 30 minutes later we welcomed our son into the world. Kaylen stayed with us until we were able to breastfeed and settled.
We belive she was instrumental in helping us to have a positive experience and could not recommend her more!
