Doulas
As doulas, we all support each other in promoting natural birth, and we encourage our clients to interview other doulas to find that "perfect fit" for you. If that person is me, fantastic! If that person is a friend of mine, I am still extremely happy for you choosing to pursue a natural birth. Congrats!
