I had the pleasure of meeting Meagan while I was in labor at Methodist Hospital in mid September. The moment she walked into the room, she was a shining light! I was having a difficult time with a long induction. She was so kind and thoughtful with how she could help me progress. Her knowledge was evident, explained everything well and gave options of what we could do next. From stretches to massages, even using essential oils to help me stay calm - this girl was pulling tricks out of her hat I didn't even know would help. She did the thinking for me, which was so nice! We will hire Meagan if we have another baby. I would recommend her to family and friends!

We had the pleasure of working with Meagan at Methodist in very late September 2022. Our baby was premature and things on our side weren't running particularly smoothly. Ashley was preeclamptic and had been in the hospital for 11 days before induction. I was suffering from a week of commuting to the hospital and lots of sleepless nights. After 29 hours of labor I was asleep in a recliner wearing headphones and totally deaf to the commotion in the room. After being startled awake I looked over to see Meagan working with Ashley to help her through some painful contractions. This woke me up.


We were waiting on the anesthesiologist to come take a look at things to understand why she was in so much pain. It turned out Ashley was less than an hour away from delivery and that pain was really saying it was time to push.

Meagan was great at helping Ashley through the pain and guiding her while I was doing other things. She was great at keeping me informed on what was going on and how I could be helping besides as a hand to clamp. 

After delivery we had to spend time in the Special Care nursery and Meagan stopped in to help see how lactation  was going. Again, she was very knowledgeable and helpful.

She is kind, thoughtful, sincere and assertive. We would recommend her to any of our friends.

Meagan was connected to us during our labor at Methodist and her skills, presence and support were instrumental in our labor and delivery. She helped provide connection and support for my husband and I. She partnered with the labor nurses as labor progressed and I needed to find new positions during labor and delivery. She provided a calm presence as care decisions needed to be made and encouragement throughout our time together. I went into labor with a goal of delivering naturally without an epidural and was able to progress through an induced labor and delivery without an epidural because of Meagan's support. Her presence at our birth was a blessing and I highly recommend her!

Meagan’s care for myself and family made a profound difference in the way we experienced the birth of our second child. Her compassion is anchored in her experience and her ability to not just listen - but hear and truly understand her client’s individual needs. She really takes the time to get to know you. Meagan is also exceptionally responsive, reliable and committed to her clients, which is welcomed compared to the at times hard to reach and less available physicians. Especially with a first child, having an outlet for questions or anxieties can be so helpful and reassuring. Further, Meagan’s presence at our birth was not only helpful, but also comfortable and reassuring. She always complimented the involvement of my husband and physicians, working very collaboratively with all involved. Perhaps most distinctly, Meagan managed to surprise and delight us at every turn, exceeding our expectations. Partnering with her will be one of many great decisions to ensure the best birthing experience for your family.
