MaryBeth was a vital part of our two childbirth experiences. She supported, coached, guided, and encouraged me during labor and childbirth. My husband and I are so thankful for her great work. With MaryBeth's assistance, I delivered my children naturally. With my first child, MaryBeth was a great help in communicating with our midwife, who was called into another delivery room to assist with an emergency C-section. MaryBeth was able to go in and out of both rooms and let the midwife know when I was ready to push. While she was doing that, my husband was able to stay by my side. In our second birth, MaryBeth coached me while I relaxed in the large tub in the labor room, and then continued to guide me through the delivery. I especially appreciated that MaryBeth was calm and peaceful during the entire process. She worked well with the midwives and nurses that were in the room and helped create a supportive atmosphere. My husband and I enjoyed the process of meeting with her ahead of time to create our birth plan, and it was wonderful to see her post-partum to receive our birth story, photos, and to have her visit with our new baby in our home. I whole-heartedly recommend MaryBeth Nance as a doula and I will always be thankful for her presence at the birth of our children.
