Let me help
you have a satisfying birth experience...
You have a vision for the birth of
your child - joyful, rewarding, and empowering.
Let me help you create a lasting positive memory of that experience.
I offer:
- advocacy and collaboration with clinical caregivers
- informational support
- help with visualization (via hypno-birthing
techniques or otherwise)
- encouragement
- massage
- advice on positions (e.g., suggestions
on positions that may help the baby come down during labor)
- low back counter pressure and other
techniques to minimize discomfort
- hydrotherapy (water immersion or shower)
- vocalization with you during contractions
- protection/respect of your modesty
- care for your physical needs (hydration,
making sure your immediate area is protected with chux pads, cleaning up,
getting a vomit basin ready)
- promotion of confidence for your husband/partner
(i.e., pointers/advice on how he can assist you)
- prayer (if desired by you and your
and family)
- anything else you request, short of
clinical or medical services
- 1-2 prenatal visits
- one post partum visit (where we go
over the birth story together)
