I can’t say enough great things about Shelia.  I was initially a bit hesitant around getting a doula since I had already decided that I wanted an epidural like perhaps I wasn’t going to benefit from the full range of Shelia’s skills.  However, Shelia reminded me that there is no “right” or “wrong” way to have a baby, and she was there to make my experience the best possible.  Throughout the course of my delivery doctors and nurses came and went, but Shelia was a constant.  She provided helpful guidance, a calming presence, and advocated to make my experience positive and comfortable.  I honestly can’t imagine going through the delivery without her.  I’d strongly recommend Shelia for anyone considering a doula — epidural or not.  She is worth every penny!
