“I knew I wanted someone at the birth to advocate for me from the start. I had met Chantal at one of her "Pushing Power" workshops - a great informative on birth and protecting your pelvic floor. Chantal was supportive, open and knowledgeable. I am so glad I met her and had her at the birth. Honestly, if we didn't have her there I no doubt would have had a C-section.
The moment Chantal was of the up most importance, was after I was laboring for most of the day I was getting ready to move into the pushing stage. We found out the baby was in the sunny side up position and immedietly my doctor went to look and see if the OR's were available. Chantal was calm and gently suggested we try different forms of pushing. She got my nurse and doctor on board and after trying different things we were able to find a position that didn't stress the baby and allowed me to have the birth experience I wanted to.“

“Chantal Traub is an amazing doula - we couldn’t be happier with our experience. Not only is she professional and most importantly knowledgeable, but she is also very warm, understanding, and caring. Her personality and extensive experience really put our minds at ease and helped prepare us for our delivery. She was thorough in coaching us to meet our goals and worked collaboratively with our doctors. She helped create a calm environment in our delivery room and gave us the support we needed at the different stages of our labor. Her positive and calm attitude and experience in the NY medical community really came into play during our delivery.
We strongly recommend Chantal - she is wonderful to work with!”
