Testimonial for Joy Batchelder CD-L

Joy was an angel to work with!

I hired Joy a week before giving birth, and despite going into labor 4 weeks before my due date and Joy being out of town, she made herself available on a moment's notice to be by my side.  Joy has a calm, quiet confidence about her, which was very grounding as I declined multiple recommendations of unnecessary interventions. Joy was very in tune with my labor and made suggestions in line with my wants and needs. I drew so much strength during a challenging labor and birth from her gentle, but assertive support. I highly recommend Joy and hope to work with her again in the future!
