Testimonial for Sarah Matney
Sarah has a calming, positive energy that immediately made me feel at ease and confident about my birth experience. As a gestational surrogate, my situation was a little different than usual, and I appreciated Sarah's inclusion of the intended parents and flexibility in the kind of support she offered. What I appreciated most was how she pivoted to inform me of my options when my birth plan changed into a C-section. She talked me through the process and advocated for my concerns as well as getting skin-to-skin care for the baby when that was delayed. Sarah stayed for a couple of hours after getting very little sleep (thank you, 3:30 am baby!) and helped the baby breastfeed before leaving. Her follow-up visit helped us process everything and assured us that she would voice our concerns to the appropriate parties, so that we could concentrate on recovery and taking care of the baby. I am really glad that I had Sarah to help me through my labor and delivery.
