Testimonial for Natasha Trapp, CD(DONA)
We chose to hire a doula after discovering their positive impact on healthy, natural childbirth. As first-time parents without nearby family and overwhelmed by information, we needed experienced guidance. Working with Natasha provided us with reassurance and support from the very start.
Natasha was an invaluable source of evidence-based information throughout the entire process. She always listened to our preferences and never imposed her opinions. Instead, she presented us with clear benefits and risks for every option, empowering us to make the decisions that felt right for us.
The best part of working with Natasha was the support she provided at the hospital. Anticipating what the hospital environment would look like felt daunting, but being there with Natasha made it easier and we actually enjoyed so much our hospital stay. She was familiar with the policies, offered timely recommendations, and ensured we always felt confident and informed about what was happening.
I am currently 8 weeks postpartum and still remember vividly how scared I felt about getting out of the car by myself at the emergency entry of the hospital since my husband needed to park the car and get my stuff and the sense of relief that immediately took over when I saw Natasha waiting for me. Walking inside with her to start the check-in process, as I was having extreme and frequent contractions and could barely make out a few words, was beyond meaningful; I did not feel alone, not even for a second. I will be forever thankful for her calm presence, for how hard she worked to make sure I was as comfortable as possible, and for the many hours that she stood by my side with kind words and empowering influence.
If you're considering a doula, we highly recommend Natasha. Her dedication and personalized support greatly improved our birthing experience, and we are grateful for her contribution to our journey.
