Mothers’ stories

Cases

I was afraid of giving birth in New York, but with Irina I felt calm and understood what was happening at every stage.

Mother from Brooklyn

Having a doula beside me made decision-making easier and helped me feel less lost in the hospital. The support felt warm and professional.

Mother from Manhattan

It was important for us to have Russian-speaking support. We felt much more confident both as a family and as partners.
