What are clients saying…
As a first-time single mom with no family in the area, I felt alone and overwhelmed by my pregnancy journey. I used Andreya at my cesarean birth. Andreya was compassionate, knowledgeable and reliable.
Andreya was always available via text. She helped decipher any symptoms I described, provided video resources and suggested solutions for relief. For example, Andreya helped me realize some of my abdominal pain during the third trimester was contributed to how I lifted myself out of bed. She sent instructional videos to show me how to correctly navigate in and out of bed which relieved the pain.
Although my cesarean was scheduled, my water broke three days early. Andreya arrived to the hospital before I got myself there. I was taken back for my cesarean procedure and she was at my side every step of the way. She did everything from carrying my bags, moving my car to the parking deck, timing my contractions, holding my hand during the surgery, taking pictures of the birth, providing emotional support, and spending the entire afternoon in recovery with me and the baby. I am so grateful and felt truly supported and loved
Hiring Dreya as my birth doula was the best decision I made during my pregnancy journey. Her unwavering support and guidance were essential to my positive birthing experience. From the moment we met, she exuded warmth and expertise, creating a reassuring atmosphere. She brought tea lights to set a calming mood in the room before delivery and encouraged us to play music to keep the mood light. During labor, she proved to be essential, guiding me through techniques that made the process more manageable. Our son's arrival on her birthday felt serendipitous, and having her cut the umbilical cord added a unique and memorable touch to the moment. Her presence, knowledge, and compassionate care truly made the birthing process a joyous and empowering one for me.
