Jacquelyn Says

I absolutely recommend Cassie with my whole heart. She is fantastic both as a doula and a person, and I am forever grateful to her. I met Cassie two years ago, when I was pregnant with my first. Since then, she has supported me through two pregnancies and deliveries (and also provided lactation support). I had both of my children in the hospital (vaginal births) with an epidural. I can confidently say that without Cassie, the first would have been a C-section. I am forever grateful to her for being there to support me and encourage me when the hospital staff wanted to use a vacuum or forceps (or perform a C-section). Thanks to her, I had a beautiful birth story - twice. 

Cassie is a kind, supportive person with a lot of experience. I completely trusted her advice, but she is never pushy. She is very positive and uplifting, and she helped make it so that my husband was equipped to be the primary helper in both of the births. Both of my birth stories are the two most amazing, beautiful experiences of my life - without trauma and with easy recoveries - and I give Cassie so much of the credit for that. 

Cassie provided a lot of pre-birth education that helped with pain management during labor. She also educated us on what to expect in delivery, which helped us significantly in avoiding a C-section. Cassie also helped with a variety of methods before delivery and then during delivery. Finally, she provided in-home lactation support after delivery. I can't tell you how thankful I am that we hired Cassie -especially since we did not feel supported by the hospital nurses and staff in our first birth. Hiring her was one of the best decisions that I ever made. 

If you are even thinking about hiring Cassie - I absolutely recommend her. She is wonderful.
