There is so much to say about our experience with Adara, it cannot possibly fit into one review. I originally wanted a doula due to the fact that I had no prior knowledge of who the provider would be to deliver my daughter and I wanted to have someone who knew and understood my preferences and someone I was comfortable with. That is exactly what Adara turned out to be for us. I interviewed three different services and companies and landed on Adara in the end. She was someone who we got to know and trust over the few months before my daughter arrived. Adara tailored her services to things I was curious to learn and the extra prenatal visits were so helpful in feeling prepared for an unmedicated birth that I wanted. Having Adara with me the whole labor and delivery (almost 29 hours) was so instrumental in getting me through unmedicated and helping me make difficult choices in the end. Without a doubt, if we didn't have Adara with us through this process it would not have been such a wonderful experience.
