Services
Before you go into labor, I’d like to meet with you (and your partner if applicable) at least 2 times to get to know you better and to discover what your wishes are for childbirth. I can help you create a Birth Preferences letter to give to your provider and hospital staff. I’m also willing to meet your OB/Midwife if you’d like me to do so.
I will be with you for 100% of your labor from when we both decide it's the right time for me to join you. I can come to your house if you wish to stay at home for part of your labor, or I will meet you at the hospital (or Birth Center). After the birth of your baby I will stay with you to help with initial breastfeeding if so desired, and leave at an appropriate time when your new family is comfortable together.
About one week after delivery I will come see you and your baby at your home. We can discuss and share memories of your labor and delivery. I can help you with any issues you might be having at that time.
I’m always available on my cell phone for my clients to discuss fears or to answer questions.
