When we found out we were expecting our second child we knew we want to hire a doula. We were so…read moreincredibly blessed to have met Christine with Redding Doula Collective! I knew that I wanted my birth experience to be different from my first. Christine listened to my desires and concerns. She helped me create my birth plan and spent 4 hours with me preparing for my birthing experience and postpartum concerns. She helped us draft a letter to friends and family about our postpartum guidelines with baby. She helped us by creating conversation about expectations and possible fears. Our prenatal visit with her was instrumental in calming our anxieties and feeling more prepared. She also offered multiple referrals to birthing, breastfeeding and postpartum classes. By week 35 we realized we would be having a planned csection. Christine didn't miss a beat and helped us prepare for our csection. She attended our csection and was a great comfort for both my husband and I. While my husband focused on baby she sat with me and held my hand though surgery. She stayed with us through preop and postop as well. However, the most helpful aspects of hiring our doula was postpartum services! Christine has been amazing checking in regularly, accompanying me to the lactation clinic, helping us with grocery shopping, cooking us dinner on the days she is here and just being an overall amazing support person! We are so incredibly happy with our choice to hire her and we would highly recommend her services to anyone who is expecting!

It was also a really stressful work trip and my back and neck were killing me so I decided to get my first ever paid massage. I was blown away at the attention to detail Shelley took over the entire hour. It was so relaxing. She spent time talking me through my ailments before she started and coached me through things I could do at home to help myself. I took her advice on the pillow under my knees and that has been helpful already. I just purchased an hour long massage for my friend's birthday.
