"I appreciate your advice and resources. You are doing something truly honorable with your life." -2nd time mom

"Many of you know my friend Vanessa. She's been teaching child birth education classes, and she just took a course to become a doula a few weeks ago. I asked her if she wanted to be there for my labor and delivery ... So Vanessa was there for the duration of my labor and delivery, and she had some great advice on some positions to try to help manage the pain. Toward the end of it all, as I was finally allowed to push out the baby, I looked down and there was Vanessa helping my doctor deliver my baby!! How wonderful was that, to have my daughter greeted by Vanessa's smiling, excited face! I think Vanessa has been on a bigger baby-high than I've been this week. :)" -2nd time mom (non-medicated births) A special thanks to my friend who gave me such an incredible experience! I will cherish it always!

"Vanessa, I wanted to thank you again as well for all of your suport and help through my labor.  I know I would not have been able to go entirely drug free on my own.  Your calm and soothing commands were exactly what I needed to stay relaxed and focused so I could achieve my goal.  I am really happy with everything even though we ended up with the unexpected c-section-I still achieved my goal and I am proud of myself for having done it!  You have a wonderful talent and [dad] and I really apprectiate all you did-especially all the pictures.  What a wonderful and unexpected surprise for me after I got home-so emotional!  I really cherish those...thanks again for everything."  -1st time mom
