My wife was so tired after three days of labor, and Elaina came in and made her smile and went way above and beyond to help her smile and rest and was very genuine about all she did. She really made my wife's night become way better. We both felt like we had a friend helping us, rather than a nurse. This lady was way above what I have ever had for a nurse. I have had four other girls and never had a nurse like her. She has no idea how much she meant to me and my wife. My wife delivered the next day by C-section, but Elaina tried so hard to help my wife meet her original birthing plan. After the experience we had with her in Labor & Delivery, she was in Post-Partum and we got her as our nurse again! After being here eight days and us both being down and out because our baby was in the NICU, instead of our room here. She popped in and caused my wife's eyes to brighten and put a smile on her face. She helped her with expressing milk and helped her to start eating something, even if it was a little at a time. She put the extra foot forward to help my wife get out of her slump she was starting to get in. Then she shared her stories with my wife.
