What families say
Like so many others I find it hard to think of where to begin. When I think about my birth experience I know that I look back on it fondly because of Yana. She was our birth doula and postpartum doula and it was worth every single penny.
There is so much that can be said about Yana--she is warm, supportive, a wealth of knowledge, and just an all-around gem. I am writing this review as we approach my son's first birthday, nearly a year after Yana was with us and she is still a daily name in our household ("well as Yana taught us...").
I was skeptical when my wife first said she wanted to hire a doula for the birth process. I had no idea what a doula did or why you needed one (none of my other guy friends had one with their kids). But Yana and Head First proved me wrong--she was an absolute pleasure to work with.
Yana was my birth doula and she fundamentally helped me shape my birth experience. I cannot imagine achieving what I did without her support, and I wholeheartedly recommend her. As a first time parent it can be difficult to know where to start.
