Kim was referred to be my a colleague at work, and immediately on talking with her I felt at ease in her company. Kim took a large amount of the stress and anxiety away from me that I was feeling about the prospect of giving birth.
My job is extremely busy and I was stressed that I was not mentally prepared to have a baby, and I had not had the time to read any books, I didnt feel prepared. By meeting Kim twice before going in to labor she was able to provide me hints and tips and things I could be doing before labor to help the process. Knowing Kim was going to be there in the delivery room was very reassuring.
On the day Kim was with us each step of the way, she gave my husband hints and tips on things he could do to make my labor easier, and she was permanently reassuring me when I got anxious. We were extremely pleased that Kim was with us through the whole process.
On top of that, Kim took some amazing photographs of my husband and I when our little boy was born. I will treassure (most) of these photographs always. Thank you Kim
