Testimonial for Vanessa Lewis, CPM (Cert Professional Midwife), CBD, PEP
i first "met" Vanessa via phone after a good friend of mine booked a consultation as a birthday gift. Speaking with Vanessa on the phone was like talking with a friend - she was Very personable and patient with me as I struggled to come up with questions to ask her. She offered amazing advice andsuggestions for some literature I should look into regarding birth plans and the like. After our phone consultation, we booked Vanessa for an at-home birth class. Vanessa was very accommodating with our busy schedules and came well-prepared with all sorts of information about natural births, birth plans, and covered all options I would have for my birth. She also showed my husband some helpful massage/pressure points to help ease me through labor. Amazing! Our last session was a lactation consultation after my son was born. We had just come home after a long hospital stay and my son was having difficiluties latching. Vanessa to the rescue! She came prepared with techniques that were very successful for us, as well as a kind and patient demeanor as I was falling apart from feeling so overwhelmed and underprepared for the reality of being a new mommy. She even brought me a calming tea to help me be a bit more centered and relaxed so that nursing would be less stressful for me and a better bonding experience for my son and I. Although we did not choose to have the entire experience of hiring Vanessa for labor and delivery, her expertise and knowledge during our classes were invaluable. I highly reccommend her to anyone looking for an experience outside of the typical hospital birth classes.
