Testimonial for Shannon Mathews CD(DONA), CVD (TVL)

I can't put into words exactly how much Shannon helped me during my pregnancy and birth of my daughter. I can look back and say that I had my "dream" childbirth mostly in part because of Shannon's support. She was responsive, empathetic and stayed in touch with me during my high-risk pregnancy which had many twists and turns. I really wanted a natural child birth and she helped me navigate that process at home and in the hospital. I ended up needing a lot of help with positions in labor and she was there to physically support me for many many hours and even the nurse was impressed with her skills and knowledge! Her experience is obvious and I always felt comfortable  with her. She always knew how to let my husband be very involved which I had wanted. Shannon anticipated every need of mine in labor, from hand holding, sips of water, words of encouragement, knowledge, rubbing my arm/back/legs etc.. I simply would not have been able to get my baby out vaginally without her and mentally I would have given up. She is hands down the best you can find and I am tremendously greatful we hired her!
