Jackie was an absolute asset to our birth experience. We had a long labour - 4 days - and Jackie managed to support us through so many key moments (including late night hospital visits), while also taking care of herself to ensure she could show up for us when we needed her most. She was incredibly at ease, helpful and professional in the hospital environment and was able to help us liaise with the midwives, nurses and the OB through it all. I think I was most impressed by her ability to know when to step in and offer just the right kind of support (whether emotional or otherwise) and when to step back and let my partner, the nurses or others do their thing. Her wealth of experience really shone through in these moments! She also made it very clear to us that we were her priority and she was able to be with us until our baby arrived (eventually by c-section), and she was there to set us up for our first night together and ensure we got her latched on my breast for that first breast feed. Jackie's experience, confidence and professionalism was so helpful, and we are so grateful to have had her as a part of our birth team!
