Review #1973

Stefany was the key to my successful labor and delivery. This was my first pregnancy and I was scared to think of giving birth after hearing many horror stories. I did some research to know what my options were and decided that having a doula was the best thing to do. I interviewed many doulas and Stefany stood out among them all due to her caring demeanor as well as her professionalism and knowledge.
My instincts regarding her proved to be right as my pregnancy became a very traumatic rollercoaster ride. I had one complication after another. Stefany was so awesome! She was constantly there for me reassuring me and researching information on my particular issues. She always relieved my concerns with her positive attitude and outlook.

However, it was during the actual labor and delivery that her aid truly proved to be a God send! Just having Stefany be in the room was wonderful she helped guide my husband and mom so that they could be a part of the process. My Mom was totally opposed to having her there but was kissing her and hugging her once it was all said and done.
What’s more is what Stefany did for me personally during this time! She was so comforting! She verbally told me what to expect next and what to do at each phase. This meant the world to me as I had no clue how painful and traumatizing birth could be even after all the self preparation. I thought I had a handle on it and knew what to expect however I was blown away by the reality of labor. I know it was Stefany’s instruction and support that helped me to dilate so quickly and push so efficiently. I don’t know what I would have done without her there. She also messaged my feet for probably five hours with no break! I can not say enough about how wonderful it was to have Stefany as a doula!!!! She is one of the kindest and most selfless people I have ever met!!! Thank you so much Stefany! I will see you at my next birth for certain!
