I decided to work with a doula for 2 reasons. I wanted private prenatal classes where my husband and I felt comfortable to ask questions and learn about the birth we would both soon experience and to have support and guidance for a natural birth. Sylvia was instrumental in both of these instances. We were able to learn in a comfortable environment (our home) and gained valuable knowledge about what to expect, from the moment your labour starts until you leave the hospital. During labour itself Sylvia was a great comfort and support and helped me to reach my end goal, a birth without epidural. I truly believe I could not have done it without her help. I will be working with Sylvia again if I am so lucky to have the chance ?
