Testimonial for Hilary Baxendale
Hilary was absolutely instrumental in helping me have the birth experience I wanted. I unexpectedly had to be induced, which was not part of my original plan, but Hilary coached me through every step and helped me stay on track with my goal of having a natural, unmedicated birth.
From helping me create my birth plan beforehand to advocating for me with the doctors and nurses during labor, she was an incredible source of support and guidance. Throughout the induction and delivery, she helped me understand my options, coached me through contractions, and guided me into different positions to help labor progress naturally.
I truly do not think I could have had the unmedicated birth I wanted without her. She was calm, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive, but she was also fun, funny and so easy to connect with. From the beginning, I felt like I had known her forever and that she was completely in my corner, which made such a difference during such an intense and personal experience. She also followed up with me postpartum, which I really appreciated.
I would 100% recommend Hilary to anyone looking for support during pregnancy and delivery, no matter what your birth goals are. I am so grateful she was there for my baby's birth and will absolutely be calling her for any future pregnancies!
