Dear Ranjani,

I hope this letter finds you in great spirits. As I reflect on my birthing experience, I feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude for everything you did to support me during such a transformative time in my life. Welcoming my baby girl was one of the most incredible moments I have ever experienced, and I truly believe it wouldn't have been the same without your love and guidance.

From the very beginning, your nurturing presence made me feel empowered and reassured. Your knowledge and calming energy created a safe space for me to embrace the journey ahead. I remember the way you encouraged me, reminding me of my strength during moments when I felt uncertain. You were not only my doula; you became a vital part of my support system.

The way you listened to my needs and respected my wishes meant the world to me. Your genuine care and dedication fostered an atmosphere where I could fully immerse myself in the experience of bringing my daughter into the world. I will forever cherish the memories we made together, from our prenatal sessions to the moment you helped guide me through labor and delivery.

When I held my baby girl for the first time, the rush of emotions was indescribable. I was filled with love, joy, and gratitude, not just for my daughter but also for you. You played an essential role in making that moment possible, and I am eternally thankful for your unwavering support, your soothing words, and your skilled guidance. Unfortunately, my husband was not there to support me in my birthing experience but you made sure to protect me throughout it all. I’m so thankful for you. 

Thank you for being such a loving and nurturing presence during one of the most significant days of my life. I truly couldn’t have done it without you. Your passion for supporting mothers and families is evident, and I feel incredibly lucky to have had you by my side. 

With heartfelt appreciation,

Charisse and Celeste
