“I never imagined that a doula’s presence would mean such deep, constant attunement...”

“I never imagined that, in practice, being a doula means working for a day and a half straight, constantly attuned to me — so that I could be free of stress, feel complete emotional safety and physical comfort. It’s intense emotional, mental and physical work whose true value is really priceless. With her help I felt in charge of every moment of this birth.”

“If I could recommend one thing to any expectant mother, it would be to have a doula...”

“If there’s one thing I wouldn’t change, it’s that Ildikó accompanied our journey. If I could recommend one thing to another pregnant woman, it’s to have a doula. It gives a completely different quality to pregnancy and preparation — allowing you to live it as it’s meant to be.”

“Ildi is a true professional. She always knew what we needed and was a real support...”

“Ildi is a true professional. She always knew what we needed and asked the very best questions. She was our solid support. Not only did she help us prepare for birth — our marriage benefitted from our talks with her. She read my thoughts and understood my feelings. Her companionship was priceless.”

“She was there for my hospital birth, and when things didn’t go as planned...”

“What mattered most to me was that she was there for my hospital birth. When things didn’t go as I thought, or when I wanted to better understand what was happening, she calmed me and helped so much. Because she was there, I remember the birth as a much better experience. It’s strange to call it a ‘service’, when what she gives cannot really be bought.”
