Colette, Mother of Oliver David
When my husband, Luke and I were first educated about the role of a doula in our Calm Birth class we both knew we needed to find the right person. Krista was recommended to us and we are so grateful our stars aligned with her. From the moment we first met with Krista, we knew she was the right person to support us through this exciting journey.
Krista’s care, knowledge and passion for this important role to support during pregnancy, labour and post natal care is amazing. As Krista would say “knowledge is power” and we felt so supported through the amount of knowledge Krista passed on via email, phone calls, catch ups or visits with our obstetrician. Most importantly we felt incredibly supported to make informed decisions leading up to labour and during.
Krista helped us feel confident and empowered leading up to, during the birth of our son and most importantly, after when we became first time parents.
During labour (which was long) Krista did not leave my side and supported every decision we made. She helped using spinning babies, kept me hydrated, massaged me, got Luke coffee and encouraged me during every moment until our son arrived. I felt empowered and confident, trusting my body and kept so calm throughout the lengthy labour it turned out to be.
Krista’s post natal care is truly amazing and something I would highly recommend to anyone expecting. She has taught us that post natal care for the mother is just as important as the baby to ensure the care for the baby. Krista has educated us with self care and eating nutritious and I couldn’t recommend her anymore.
We have absolutely loved having Krista share such an incredibly special part in welcoming our son Oliver and know that she will be such a special person in his life as he grows. Thank you so much for everything Krista, you truly are one in a million 💕
