Testimonial for Alaska McFadden

From the moment we met Alaska, we loved her supportive, practical and no-nonsense vibe - and her sense of humor.  This year was a weird time to be pregnant - the pandemic really put a wrench into everyone's plans - so it was even more important than ever to partner with someone so knowledgeable and supportive. Throughout our pregnancy, Alaska was there with the info we needed - before we knew we needed it.  For birth, I unfortunately had to be induced - and it was Alaska's wealth of pain management techniques that really got me the through it - and allowed me to delay an epidural as long as I had hoped.  She made what could have been a painful and scary day a bit more magical - with soothing music, dim lights, and candles sprinkled around the room.  And for our postpartum visit, Alaska surprised me with a super special and thoughtful baby gift: a hand embroidered onesie for my little one with the words "i'm just being honest" - the catchphrase for all of the women in my family.  I highly recommend partnering with Alaska - she was so supportive of us the entire way through the pregnancy, and I'm so thankful to have had her be part of my birth experience.
