Testimonial for Mariah Falin, CD(PALS), PPD, PES
Mariah has been great to work with. We didn't get to have our second prenatal visit because my son arrived early, but she gave us so much information in our first meeting that my husband and I felt well-prepared for what to expect and how to manage the birthing process to match our desires as much as possible. Of course, it ended up being completely different than what we'd anticipated so all bets were off, but Mariah did a fantastic job of anticipating our needs in a quickly changing environment and ensuring we were comfortable with the process. She has a calming presence and a great knowledge of both general hospital birthing procedures and Swedish Issaquah specifically; having someone there who'd been through it before, knew what we should expect, and could help explain everything as we went along was so reassuring! We very much appreciated her end-to-end support, and felt very cared for in her efforts to follow up with us to ensure our transition back home went smoothly. Despite circumstances preventing us from carrying out our original birth plan, I still feel like I had a great birthing experience, and a lot of that was thanks to Mariah helping out both emotionally and logistically. She was a great asset to us and I'd highly recommend her!
