What they say about me...

 

"I had a very positive birth experience with my second child. Hiring a doula was the best thing I ever did for both my unborn child and myself. I was able to get through my second labor experience without any medication which left me with a great sense of accomplishment" ~ Angela, second-time mom


"Doula was very professional & had a calming presence in the room. I would recommend this doula to my family members" ~ Dr. W


"When seeking a doula, I had only expected to receive assistance with labor and delivery. I was pleasantly suprised to get so much more. Not only was her presence a comfort with her words of encouragement and massage, but she helped me with so much before the big day. She helped me prepare for the birth of my baby mentally, emotionally, and physically. Her advice from the first meeting to the delivery date was invaluable in making the end of my pregnancy, labor and delivery a much more pleasant experience" ~ Jennifer, first-time mom.


"Christy was a very vital part of the [family's] birthing experience. Mrs. X/Christy birthing relationship was evident from the time of arrival to birth. Christy would be an asset to a family wanting the experience of a caring doula" ~ Nurse D


"I would absolutely hire a doula should I have a third child. I would highly recommend a doula to anyone having a child, they make a difficult situation much less stressful" ~ Proud Dad


" Ms. Shields was a very welcome addition to the delivery team. Her presence was soothing to mom and spouse. She played an intregal role in this delivery. Very professional" ~ Dr. S


I just wanted to tell you I'm so glad we got to experience (client's) labor together. You are an excellent doula..."~Friend of New Mom


"I love my doula! She was an incredible source of information and helped me cope with many of the decisions I needed to make along the way. She was so supportive and helpful, I cannot begin to express how thankful I was in finding her! During the birth she exceeded all of my expectations. She took great care of me, massaged me as often as needed and wanted, was quick to help at all times...I cannot say enough wonderful things about my doula, Christy."

"(my husbands thoughts) He was really greatful for her quick responses to my every need. He loved how he was able to focus on being there for me emotionally every minute while Christy was able to spend her time helping me be comfortable and content" ~Nikki, CBAC mom
