Testimonial for Anna Tarasova
Anna supported us for the birth of our daughter in February 2015. She was wonderful, and I highly recommend her. Anna met with us well before the due date to help us prepare for the birth and suggest tools to cope with labor. She was able to give us many helpful suggestions based on her extensive birth experiences. When my labor began, she arrived at our home and was everything I could have hoped for. She quickly cued into my needs. Anna stayed quiet, was very positive, provided me with tremendous physical support, and suggested ways to move through contractions. By the time we got to the hospital my contractions were so intense that I was not able to communicate very much. While my husband meant well and wanted very much to help, he was often asking me questions that I couldn't respond to. Anna sensed what I needed--a cool washcloth to the head, an update on how my labor was progressing, a massage to the lower back--without my needing to ask. I said to her more than once that I didn't think I could continue on, and she expertly gave me the confidence to keep going. I felt so much stronger and capable because she was there.
