Megan was an incredible addition to my birth team! When I first contacted her we were living out of state, planning our move to Ohio. She went out of her way to send me resources and help me find a midwife before I even hired her. The prenatal appointments were always very valuable. I loved that she offered additional services like reiki and massage. She came to my home, an hour away, and did a reiki/massage session which was very healing and relaxing! Megan came while I was still in early labor. As a first time mom, I didn't know what to expect. She helped me every step of the way, providing multiple levels of support - from essential oils to spinning babies & helping my husband set up the birth pool. She time my contractions for me, kept in contact with the midwives, provided me with suggestions of things to do, positions and breathing techniques. Megan provided positive support to relax and encouraged me that I could do it and that I could trust my body. She was an invaluable part of my support team and I will be forever grateful that she was here with me!
