Brittany was a wonderful presence during our birth experience.  It was my third birth which I've heard described as the "wild card" birth so wasn't sure what to expect going in, but hoped for another unmedicated delivery.

Brittany met us at the hospital and stayed with us through every stage of my rollercoaster labor, which ranged from slow and laid back to totally stalled to a fast and furious finish.  She was extremely supportive of all of my wishes.  Throughout the many hours, she was able to help me process my emotions and communicate clearly with doctors and nurses.  When contractions picked up she offered a variety of pain management techniques including guided breathing, counter-pressure, aromatherapy, and birthing balls.

In the end, I was overjoyed with how my birth unfolded and wouldn't have changed a thing.  Labor can be so unpredictable and the stability and calm that Brittany provided was a huge help.  We are forever grateful for the role she played in our daughter's birth story and highly recommend her.
