Testimonial from Sara

June 2023

My husband and I cannot recommend Kassie enough as a doula - it was one of, if not the best, decisions we made as we prepared for the birth of our first child. Her calm and supportive demeanor, as well as the wealth of knowledge provided to us pre-, during-, and post-birth were invaluable to us. With her guidance, we were able to feel confident in the decisions that we were making in the delivery room in order to have a smooth birth. Initially, we were hesitant to have yet another person in the delivery room, but Kassie was so much more than "another person" and we felt supported and heard from just the first virtual meeting. Our birth story would not have been possible with Kassie. From personal touches -- setting a calm atmosphere with flameless candles, grabbing my husband a coffee so he could stay in the room with me, and taking pictures as our baby was born and the first few moments together -- to the actual physical and emotional support she provided -- knowledge of positions, comforting techniques, and help with making evidence-based decisions regarding possible interventions -- needless to say, Kassie was an absolute critical team member of our baby's birth that we will be forever grateful for. Her support doesn't stop after the birth either. Kassie made sure to check in frequently on how I was recovering and able to answer any questions I had regarding our new baby.
