Testimonial for Tanya (Tatiana) Ponomar
Tatiana was such a gift to our birthing experience! From the moment we met, her validation, warmth and compassion made me feel comfortable and reassured on my TOLAC journey. I truly believe this is Tatiana's life's work and she is sharing her gift of affirmation and love with people in their most vulnerable and joyful moments. She deeply understands and honors the powerful journey of welcoming life into the world.
She is highly communicative and knowledgeable and has endless resources for any questions or concerns you may have through your prenatal and birthing process. Tatiana empathized with my previous traumatic birth and was able to identify the ways we could make this a healing and positive experience. She arrived at 2 in the morning, no questions asked, she wants to be present for as long as you'll have her. She was a constant advocate with all of my healthcare providers and was simultaneously tender and encouraging to push further throughout my 18 hour labor. Her energy never faltered. She found ways to make the hospital setting as relaxing and comfortable as possible which was important to us. Her touch was also magical - she knows exactly how to be gentle and supportive throughout the waves and intensity of labor. She even took beautiful photos of our laboring experience that she shared afterwards.
I cannot recommend Tatiana enough - she does such incredible work making sure your individual needs are prioritized and you understand how special you are. She is so grateful to share in this experience with you and we feel deep gratitude in return!
