Testimonial for Ryah Jo (she/her) Silver CD (PALS) CBE, OMP trained
We love Ryah! Our first baby arrived in October and we truly can’t imagine our birth experience without her. Starting from informative prenatal meetings/visits, Ryah was always responsive and generous with her knowledge. She came to our house during early labor and helped me through intensifying contractions and gave my husband productive tools and techniques to get me through. We had hoped to do most of our early labor at home and Ryah was able to let us know when it felt right to head to the hospital. Throughout the next few hours she continued coaching me through my now very intense surges and was such a strong and level-headed part of our birth team, especially helpful since the doctors never lingered in our room so it was just us plus the nurse for the majority of the time. When it was finally time to push, she jumped into action (“I’m really good at this part!”—she was) and our son was born 30 minutes later, healthy, happy, and I had minimal tearing. Throughout everything she was so friendly, fun, knowledgeable, and a reassuring presence for us. Thank you Ryah!!!
