I am not a client, but my daughter is. The entire staff is wonderful. Heather, her midwife, Robbin, the lactation nurse, and Courtney , the sonagrapher, have all taken such good care of her. She had a few scares in her early pregnancy, and I asked her if she felt like she needed to go to a conventional OBGYN, and without hesitation, she said, "Absolutely not." I understand now, why. The one on One care she gets, is amazing.

My wife and I had one of our children here and it was the best birth experience we have had!<br><br>Heather and the other midwife’s were and are, informational, kind, and EXTREMELY DILIGENT! They’re the only ones in Tyler that take Medicaid and they don’t judge about that. They truly love the beauty of birth and I highly recommend them!

My wife became their patient at 25 weeks and we couldn't have made a better decision for her prenatal care. The appoints were always long and very informative. We had a scare and went to the hospital and Heather met us there and stayed for a few hours until she knew that we were ok. The birth went very smooth and was very homie and welcoming. We will be back there for all future babies!

I was very blessed to meet Heather later into my pregnancy and receive her services! As a young mother I was facing a lot of opinions on my choice in birth. Heather made me feel very comfortable and empowered in my decisions and was more than happy to answer all questions around the clock. My birth was absolutely beautiful and Heather kept me informed every step of the way on what to expect. I felt very safe and calm in my birthing room! I highly recommend Bright Blessings to anyone looking to achieve a natural birth! You can do it!

Heather believe in my ability to give birth following a complicated cesarean when the doctors told me that my only option was a repeat cesarean at 36 weeks. She supported me as I welcomed my next three children into my own arms and only stepped in when necessary. She was skillfully able to manage birth complications that arose during my second birth with her. I have no doubt that her calm skillfulness minimized any complications that would have occurred had anyone else been my support at the time. Her support has been so far above and beyond anything I could have expected or received otherwise.
