Wislene is honestly a Godsend! I am so glad I had her support during this last pregnancy. Even though this was my third pregnancy I was so anxious about labor. With Wislene's support she educated me of my rights once at the hospital and gave me excercises i could do to prepare my body before and during inactive labor. I had always wanted to have a natural non-medicated birth and with Wislene coaching me through I was able to have that experience! This was my third child and labor this time around was not as painful or long and the recovery was so much better too! I don't believe I would have been able to do it without Wislene's help in real time guiding me with breathing techniques and coaching my husband on pressure points to support me to get through the labor pain. Thank You again, Wislene!

Wislene was terrific as our post partum doula and had a calm supportive presence. She helped ease the transition home with warming soups, breast pumping support that really kept me going, organization of our supply closet, light housekeeping and of course baby care. She had some good proactive solutions to increase breast milk supply. Wislene has a gift with babies, and the baby was comfortable with her right away. She was also good with my older daughter who needed some one on one attention. I definitely recommend Wislene!
