"Is it really worth having a doula?" See what some clients have said:
"Thank you so much for being part of Mackenzie's birth. It was wonderful having you there. "
"Having a doula didn't diminish my role as a support person. It definitely helped. A doula is a must. You gotta have a doula!"
Susan and Jason, 2nd time parents
"We couldn't have done it without you! You are much appreciated!"
Kelly and Park, first time parents
"Having a doula was a great benefit. Especially for new parents."
Jim, first time dad
"Lori was a lot of help with everything at the hospital. She helped encourage me with labor and got nurses, ice, popsicles, etc. when I needed them."
Kimberly Kelly, first time mom
"Don't try natural childbirth without a doula!
We hired a doula mainly because we wanted a natural childbirth with the least amount of interventions. We wanted an advocate for us while at the hopsital and support for Doug, as well as for me. I liked building a relationship with our doula before hand. I felt like she listened to me and understood the person I am; what I would need and not need. Lori was very respectful of our wishes and our childbirth turned out mostly the way we'd planned it. I couldn't have done it without her and I am so greatful for her service to me and my family."
Julie, first time mom
"When Julie had first brought up the use of a doula, I had not even heard of the term before. After researching the doula's role in childbirth as coach for mom AND dad, it just made sense, especially for first time parents. During Carys's birth Lori played an integral and invaluable role in the successful and miraculous birth of our little girl. Given the encouragement Lori offered both of us during the birth, I would definitely include her as a part of our birthplan for future births, God willing and I would encourage others to seek out Lori's services.
Doug, first time dad
"My birth experience was wonderful. When my husband first mentioned getting a doula, I was confident that I didn't need one. I had already had one child, why would I need help with the second? My husband needed her, I didn't! When Lori arrived and started to talk with us and teach different pain management techniques, I realized how little I really knew. I would definitely hire a doula again!"
J.P. , second time mom
I would certainly hire Lori again. I would want to engage in her services much earlier in the process. Great job!
J.P. , second time dad
My birth experience was wonderful...Lori was a God-send. She knew everything that I needed before I needed it. I felt very at ease and comfortable with her. This was my second birth and I felt that I would need some extra encouragement. Lori helped me so much during my labor. I don't think that I could have done the process without her. I would want Lori with me if I had another baby.
