Testimonial for Martha Lanphear
It is hard to put into words the role that Martha played in bringing our baby girl into this world but here we go! From the moment we met, Martha put so much time and energy into getting to know both mine and my partner's needs and hopes for our birthing experience. She prepared us emotionally, physically and energetically for what was to come. During labour, Martha came to support us as soon as we asked and stayed with us the entire time. Physically, it was amazing for both myself and my husband to have her there for all of the little things (i.e. reminding him to eat, making sure I was hydrated etc) and all the big things (i.e. pain management). But most importantly to me, energetically, Martha was the most amazing presence to have at our baby's birth. She was calm, connected and advocated on my behalf when needed. When we faced some important decisions during labour, Martha was able to guide us and help us to remember what we had talked about prior to labour. Martha's postpartum support and care has been incredible and so needed. You can really tell and feel that Martha cares deeply for her clients. I cannot recommend Martha enough to anyone going through pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. I truly don't think I could have managed as well as I did without her (even though she reminded me constantly that I could have!). We love Martha and so will you!
