She made us feel so welcomed and helped in any way she could, which was so comforting being away from home and with no family close.
Danielle was absolutely amazing to my husband and me. While on vacation, I went into labor and was transferred to this hospital. She made our transition very smooth and helped keep us comfortable the whole time. She was with us every step of the way. I delivered via cesarean and was very nervous, and she was great at keeping me calm while getting prepped for the OR. She also helped me stay calm while getting the spinal. She kept me calm during the whole procedure. She then was also my nurse after the delivery and the next morning. She made us feel so welcomed and helped in any way she could, which was so comforting being away from home and with no family close. She most definitely went above and beyond her responsibilities to keep us calm and feel comfortable. I felt like she treated us like family and not just another couple having a baby. She also made sure my husband was included in everything and always asked if he had any questions or needed anything. She made giving birth in an unfamiliar hospital not knowing anyone so easy and comfortable!
