Client & Nurse Comments

Very professional, very helpful.  Could not have done it without you!  -T. (First time Mom)

I wish I did this the 1st time I had a child! -P. (Second time Mom)

It was a wonderful labor and delivery and I was so thankful that we were able to avoid medical interventions this time.  I was lucky to have such a great husband,  doula (you), and doctor who supported me through everything.  Thank you for everything!  You are a wonderful doula and we were so lucky to have you with us for the baby's birth.  Thanks Again!  -S. & S. (Second time parents)

We are so grateful for all your indispensible help and selflessness.  You helped bring our "little" boy into the world.  Thank you for all your advice, wisdom, and baby material! -J. & D. (First time parents)

Thank you very much for your support of the mom during labor and birth.  You have very nice comfort measure techniques. 
-Nancy, RN (St. Francis Medical Center; Breckenridge, MN)

Dear Christine-
Just a note to sincerely thank you for all you did during the pregnancy and birth of our baby.  We are so pleased with the decision to have you as our doula.  We appreciated your wisdom on labor and birth.  Your quite confidence and support helped us feel confident throughout labor.  It was great to have someone trusted to talk to.  We liked having someone with ideas of things to try � especially (for the dad), so he could just �be there� for me and not have to worry about what to do, etc�  Thanks for playing Scrabble, watching movies, and walking with us (when labor was slow).  We have told many about our great experience with you and agree we are so glad to have had you with us.  Even the nurses commented on how impressed they were with you!  Thanks to your family for sharing you so long!  We were blessed to have you as our doula!  -V. & M.(Third time parents)

Thank you so much for your support and guidance.  Your presence and knowledge really helped us to feel secure in our abilities, and we truly valued having you there. 
-K. & K. (First time parents)

She helped me with positioning, instruction on pumping & storing milk, and assistance on increasing milk production.  -J. (First time Mom)

She did a great job supporting the mom.  -Melissa, RN (Meritcare; Fargo, ND)

I will have a doula present at all my births.  -L. (First time Mom)

What a Blessing to have you at the labor and birth.  Your presence truly was wonderful!  I felt I was really able to have confidence in myself and my body with you and my husband supporting me. -V. & M. (Fourth time parents)

You did a great job.  It was a wonderful gift to have you there before and after the baby�s birth.  Thank you for everything.  -S. (First time Dad)

Very supportive to family.  Relaxed and reassuring.  Willingness to help out.
-Jean, RN (Innovis; Fargo, ND)

Advertise!  I wish we had known just how helpful a doula could be when we had our first baby. -M. (Second time Dad)

We want to say a huge Thank You for everything.  You�ve done so much for us.  A simple thank you doesn�t really express how much we appreciate you and everything you�ve done to help us out.  From playing the birthing game to just being there for us with all your caring support, time, and knowledge.  Your help and support with the task of getting the baby to breastfeed successfully and saving me from mastitis by telling me what I needed to do-and fortunately the breast hot packs were something you had told us were part of the �essentials�.  There is so much you helped with.  You have a huge heart and give so much of yourself to others.  We are honored to have you as our friend.  Thank You for EVERYTHING!!! Love, K. & M. (First time parents)

It was a pleasure working with you.  I had to care for many patients today, so it was wonderful to have someone caring and knowledgeable helping the mom and dad.  I enjoyed seeing all your labor comfort techniques.  You need to educate all of us nurses your comfort measures.  Your welcome here anytime. �Karla, RN (Trinity; Minot, ND)
