I can't believe our luck in finding Kelly. We had our first baby in October and hired Kelly about six months before our due date. We picked her because she took time to get to know us in our initial interview - not just our birth preferences but our personalities and interests. This remained true during all the time we spent with her. She really paid attention to our needs and concerns. By the time we got to the birth, I felt like we had a close friend in the room with us.
The birth itself went so much faster than any of us expected I had prepped with Kelly to do all sorts of movement and pain management techniques, but we didn't have time for any of that! Kelly stepped up in a way that I didn't even know I needed. She managed the hectic environment. She made sure my husband ate. She made sure I understood what the nurses were saying to me. She put my hair into a ponytail and helped me find my chapstick :) I don't think I could have done it without her!
