“We didn’t think we wanted a doula at first but chose pretty late in the game to hire one. We didn’t know what to look for, so we interviewed a couple. The minute we met Jill, we knew. She was the perfect match of educator (from both research and personal experience), comedian, coach, and friend. Jill gave us good homework and exercises and helped us make plans for all possible directions our labor could take. Once the day (night) arrived, Jill met us at the Birthing Center and was there all 18 hours of labor (after having just come from another birth). She not only kept our morale strong, she took photos and she offered helpful position changes and options to try when things felt extra hard. She translated all of the medical and stressful information into easy to digest choices and advocated for what she knew we wanted (even when we lost sight of that goal). We feel like Jill was an essential part of our pregnancy/labor/postpartum experience. 6/5 stars. Blue ribbon, gold medal, platinum record. We would choose Jill again and again.”
