Alyssa was our doula for the birth of our first child this past November. She is amazing. During the two pregnancy visits she went over all of the options for birth, helped us create a birth plan, and taught us methods for making labor more manageable at home (she has SO MANY different tools and strategies for this)! She also taught my husband how he could help during the early labor stages and that was invaluable. My contractions started around midnight and she texted with us throughout the night, answering our many questions and making sure I was doing ok. With her guidance and support, I was able to mostly labor at home and have the unmedicated birth I hoped for. She stayed with us for hours after the birth and helped us get settled into the postpartum room. She really made me feel safe throughout the entire pregnancy, labor/birth, and postpartum stages. I knew I could do it with her there and I will be forever grateful for her help and support.
