Emily was such an important part of our birth story! Leading up to our birth, Emily helped my husband and I to feel confident in what was going to happen-- she was a much better source of information than the birthing class we attended! Towards the end of my pregnancy, I started to have some complications, and she was a source of information and encouragement through multiple visits to the doctor. Because of a car accident I was induced early, which caused a lot of stress for me. Emily was available throughout my entire induction (which took 2 days) with encouragement and calm. She was instrumental in understanding all the steps to an induction, what choices I had, and how to navigate a long labor well. When it came time to push, the nurses started throwing around the idea of a C-section. Emily calmly helped motivate me and stayed by my side the entire time, ultimately helping me to avoid the C-section! As a huge bonus, she also took some photos of my labor and the birth of our sweet baby girl. These images were AMAZING and such a blessing. I get to relive the moment my husband met our daughter over and over :) If you are looking for an amazing labor support partner, genuinely kind and generous person, and an educated birth professional who will help you document your birth beautifully, you are looking for Emily.
