Kristen was the perfect calming presence and guiding force during pregnancy and into postpartum. Throughout the pregnancy, she checked in frequently and responded to questions quickly, which really reinforced that she would be there whenever she was needed! It was so nice to know that after a rough first birth experience, we had this wealth of knowledge and compassion on our side for our second baby. Kristen is extremely attentive, but not overbearing, and a genuinely kind person! My induction progressed extremely quickly, so she arrived to the hospital right before I started pushing (although texted my husband throughout the morning with ideas for comfort measures). My husband says that when Kristen walked in the room, he saw my face immediately relax. To the extent that that's possible at 10 cm, I believe him! I've never had someone up in my face, making me feel so empowered and safe as she did during my daughter's birth. I highly recommend Kristen for her skill, knowledge, and most of all confidently compassionate approach to each birth!
