Testimonial for Heather Atkinson
Heather is THE BEST. She is warm, loving, supportive, and incredibly knowledgeable, and she infused our time with her with both calm and joy. We hired her to guide us through labor and delivery, loving her approach to empowering both me and my partner and to serving as our advocate. When we learned our tiny roommate was breech and we would likely not need a birth coach for the actual day of delivery, Heather gathered resources for us on family-centered c-sections so that we could still think purposefully about the birth experience. She checked in frequently and sent us helpful resources throughout the end of my pregnancy.
Heather continually found new ways to support us. When our daughter's weight became a concern in the days after her birth and we struggled to get consistent information from the hospital staff, Heather returned to the hospital and spent hours with us, helping us navigate the issue. When I struggled with breastfeeding and low milk supply, Heather again found valuable resources and made calls for us. She has a strong network of those working in birthing and childcare, and she never hesitated to reach out on our behalf.
We have been so grateful to work with her and cannot recommend her highly enough.
