The best decision I made in my pregnancy and birthing experience is hiring Heidi Ramirez. During my pregnancy I could call her or text her for any question and she was super quick at getting back to me with a wealth of information about the topic at hand. She has an amazing way of being present and super knowledgable, but not overbearing or forceful with her information. Both my husband and I felt incredibly safe and comfortable around her from the moment we met her.
The birth of my daughter was difficult due to positioning of the baby and the umbillical cord slowing her heartrate. This was the most difficult day of my life and I don't think I could have done it without Heidi's presence. She intuitively knew what I needed before asking and was with us for over 24 hours making sure that I was comfortable, informed and relaxed. She was calm, reassuring, confident and extremely helpful no matter the obstacles we faced. She knew her stuff too! She sensed what was happening before the doctors figured it out, which made me feel even safer around her.
For the post partum visit, Heidi sat with me and helped me find a more comfortable position to nurse in bed, she showed me how to use my baby carriers, and helped me process the events of my birth. I cannot reccommend Heidi enough. She is professional, personalble and kind and was a guiding force our family during the birth of our daughter.
