"I highly recommend Reut to any pregnant women, whether you are anxious about the delivery or not, because no matter what, she will do everything to make your dream delivery come true.

Reut assisted me with my second pregnancy. For my first pregnancy, I had attended childbirth classes but never felt the need for the "extra" support of a doula, I thought it was rather a new luxury or a new trend just like having a personal trainer or private chef. However, my labor ended in a C-section for the birth of my first baby and I was very disappointed not to have been able to deliver my baby naturally.

For my second pregnancy I absolutely wanted to avoid another C-section and I knew it would be a challenge given the pessimism of my doctor who said my chances of a VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) were very slim. So it occurred to me that having a doula could actually help me delay the epidural as much as possible and manage the pain associated with the contractions in order to have the most efficient labor. I spoke to a few doulas before finding Reut's number and none of them made me feel comfortable even over the phone. After I met Reut, I immediately felt that she would understand my needs, my motivations and feelings and that she would support me without interfering with the doctors.

Because of the position of the baby and the fact that I would have to be induced, the perspectives of a VBAC were getting less and less realistic but Reut was always very reassuring and offering great advice, despite the fact that I may not even use her services if my doctor decided to do another C-section directly. Eventually, my doctor gave me a chance to deliver naturally so I called Reut literally at the last minute and she came to the hospital immediately. Her support throughout my labor was indispensable as she gave me all the strength I needed to deliver the baby naturally; her support was not only physical but also emotional. She massaged the areas that were painful and showed me positions to cope with the pain, and even more importantly, she kept encouraging me giving me all the confidence I needed not to give up.

Without Reut by my side, I don't think I could have delivered my second baby vaginally and I will forever be grateful to her for that. And even after the delivery, Reut stayed with me at the hospital for a few hours and thereafter she conscientiously followed up with calls and visits."

Dear Reut,

We could not be happier with the wonderful care you provided us recently during the delivery of our son.  This was the birth of our third child and without comparison the most satisfying experience.  Your dedicated care and compassion throughout a rather prolonged labor and delivery made the process seem easy and pleasant.  You were patient and gentle while at the same time confident and reassuring.  And your confidence really trickled down to us when we faced often uncertain times during the labor.  The funny thing is that we were wondering how we had made it in our previous two deliveries without you.  Without a doubt if we had to go through labor and delivery again we would make sure you were at our side.  We recommend your services without reservations.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,

Dr. and Mrs. Eliran Mor, MD, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Los Angeles, CA
