Kind Words~
“I was skeptical at first when my wife told me she wanted a doula for the birth of our child. I’m private by nature so the less people the better for me when it comes to personal matters, especially childbirth. I also thought I would be all the support she needed. Well, I was wrong on all that. The support Paulina brought was amazing not only for my wife but also for me. Most important to me was their comforting voice and presence, staying in the moment, ready for whatever was needed. If you are looking for a doula, Paulina is the best, you’ll see that when you meet them.”
