Testimonial for Emily Campbell
5 Gold Stars! Emily is a SAINT and I don't use that term lightly (or ever). Emily stuck by our side for 5 grueling days and nights in the hospital leading up to the birth. Emily was great in working with us and going at our pace. The baby just did not want to come out after 5 days of trying different induction techniques. Emily provided a calming presence and voice-of-reason while not being intrusive or trying to rush the process. She was there to assist us with anything we needed. She joined us on many long walks around the hospital, countless trips to the ice machine, did hands-on counter pressure and pain-relief techniques. She provided a special inflatable birthing chair (cub chair) that we was used for a variety of different laboring positions. All along she provided both physical and emotional support. She was great at answering all of our questions and helping us navigate the labor process with all the different doctors and nurses. In the end we needed to have a C-Section. It was so comforting to have Emily in the operating room to photograph the experience but also keep us calm and explain what was going on. Emily stayed with mom after dad and baby left the room and we’re so grateful she did. Mom experienced excess bleeding during the procedure and she could hear the panic in the doctor’s voices. Emily kept mom calm and held her hand the entire time (without this mom would have been really been freaking-out). Emily's pre & post birth at-home visits were very helpful and informative. She explains things clearly and allowed us to ask questions. It was really nice having her talk us through the process. She is a wealth of knowledge and has many resources to assist us with a variety of birth related topics. She is also a great photographer. Love the pics!
I would strongly recommend Emily. She is a rock star.
