I am very glad that we hired Debbie to be our birth doula! There are so many ways that she was key to helping me have the natural birth experience that I wanted for me and my baby. First, I credit Debbie with encouraging us to sign up for Bradley classes, they were so amazing and prepared us so well for the birth. Then, I went into labor 3 weeks early and she was there for us. Having her on call helped me to labor confidently at home for longer. She was also a consistent support through unexpected setbacks such as no midwives were on call that day. She was so positive and supportive through the whole process!
