My husband and I are first time parents and living away from family, so we wanted some extra help to navigate pregnancy, delivery and postpartum life. We knew right away after first chatting with Alexis that her calm and personable demeanor were what we were looking for. She was prompt in setting up visits, always responsive and consistently checking in with us to see how things were going or if we had questions. She also kept track of some of my appointments and checking in with us after which was especially nice. It was also great that she was experienced with hypnobirthing - which I was planning to use for an unmedicated delivery - and although our plans changed to having a scheduled C-section, she was still there with us in the hospital before surgery, in the operating room and during recovery- helping us stay calm, answering questions, helping with breastfeeding and even taking pics in the operating room! Alexis continued to check in with us in the first couple weeks as those were especially challenging and was so knowledgeable and offering suggestions to help with breastfeeding, sleep, etc. We could not have done it without her!
