Anfisa, our lovely doula. So grateful for you that you were involved in giving birth of our child. And made us feel real and always next to us during the whole process of birth it’s a happiness that we found you! From the moment of preparation for birth, meditations, learning the process to the help of breastfeeding and any others questions that we had available 24/7. It was such a great Help!!
With you there was never a scary moment. When we were preparing for giving birth. Everyday I was listening meditation and even if I didn’t listen it during labour, I still used all the skills and it made the whole process easier. I knew everything happening to me during labour and I was never in any doubt during the labour state- because you were always next to us.
It was very helpful all the positions that we chose. And of course your massages helped during the contractions which made the strong pains a lot less.
Your care and support during the whole labour was super. We are forever grateful. You have given confidence to me and my husband that everything was going right. And we never had any doubts.
Now as we think about this day, we couldn’t imagine how we would be without you.Now you are a part of our family and if we ever have one more baby, we would only hope to have it with you again

We believe Anfisa to be a great asset to achieve the kind of birth we aimed- calm, natural and non-medicated birth. Despite being in the middle of global pandemic and away from home and family, she made us feel supported and confident throughout pregnancy.
During our prenatal meeting she helped us to educate ourselves on the whole process, focusing on the topics we were most interested on, and answering our questions in the moment. It wasn’t only her well established knowledge that made it for us, but her peaceful, close and comforting personality.
While the delivery, she was a great support, providing the ideal balance between help and space. When she arrived at our home, she created the perfect atmosphere to speed up contractions and started working in the background. She let my husband and I be the center of the experience, helping when having contractions in a subtle and respectful way. I found her pain relief massages during contractions to be invaluable.We would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for Doula support in Bangkok.

1. What was most valuable during birth preparation? Meeting with Anfisa before birth to discuss the specific strategies she would use to help during labor based on why I did not love my first labor. It put my mind at ease. Also, it is incredibly valuable to continue exercising and do yoga with Anfisa. Your body physically goes through a lot during labor and postpartum and staying active really helps.
2. How did you feel during the birth? What was most helpful from your doula? I felt strong, empowered, and that I could do anything. Anfisa was wonderful and brings a calming presence.The counterpressure and massage during contractions was very helpful it helped my body relax which was key as I labored for 36 hours.
3. Would you recommend to hire a doula to other people? Yes I would recommend a doula.
