We made shortly before my due date but from the very beginning, she was attentive, knowledgeable and on point. She helped me manage pain during my home birth making it so much easier to birth naturally. And postpartum, we have not only maintained a friendship but also a working relationship. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future. It’s the only way.
