"Not only did I have one expert, I had a whole team of experts ready to support me no matter what. I loved that I was able to meet and spend time with both doulas, there was a great comfort in that. My birth ended up be very long, and the team switched out which gave us a fully rested doula with a new and fresh perspective."
