Testimonial for Hannah Sackett
Giving birth with Hannah by my side was a warm, supported experience. From the very beginning she actively sought to understand my needs and desires and to do whatever she could to ease the process. She stayed in touch via text in the middle of the night even when contractions had barely started. We laughed and chatted at the birth center like old friends. She kept us from getting too discouraged when labor stalled and we needed to go back home. And when my water broke and we needed to return to the birth center that same night, Hannah was right there. She empowered my husband to provide counterpressure, which gave so much relief as things grew more intense. She knew that my previous attempt at a water birth had failed because I got too cold, so she advocated for keeping the water warm and kept me relaxed and comfortable so I could have the water birth I really wanted. Even while pushing, I felt calm and capable. And when we first held our little girl, Hannah clearly shared in our joy. Overall, Hannah was a source of peace and courage with her kind words, helpful suggestions, and positive presence.
