Testimonial for Estefany Angeles
From the Birthing Person:
I have nothing but deep, deep gratitude and love for Estefany for all that she has done for me and my family in the lead up to and birth of our daughter. She has an incredible way of showing up with easy, positive energy, while still leaving all the space you need to process and have your own feelings. I was a first time mom, and didn’t know what to expect or how I would show up in labor and I left every interaction with Estefany believing in myself and that things would go well, as well as gaining practical knowledge and skills that we used in labor and birthing. It was invaluable support.
Labor was long. Because we transferred to the hospital from a home birth (suspected meconium), we arrived much earlier than I would have planned to, and Estefany showed up, supporting my husband (or hands on me herself) through each and every contraction, all the way to the end. Despite the plan changing - as it does, Estefany knew our birth plan and adapted to the hospital context without skipping a beat. She did everything I had asked for in our conversations before birth, and at each stage of labor, she talked me through my options (both in birthing positions and movement, as well as medical options), offered questions I could ask, and affirmed me advocating for myself. She was our rock. She never brought pressure or judgment, just support.
I know I can’t quite capture the holistic nature of the support that she provided, but whenever the next child comes, we will 100% be looking to have Estefany on our team again. She brought real love and real belief in the work she’s doing to the birth of our daughter, and I will forever be grateful that she was part of our birth story.
