Melissa's knowledge and experience made her such an incredible resource for us as first time, somewhat nervous parents. Her approach is clearly rooted in data and solid information and I always felt I could turn to her for resources and perspective.
At our birth (which came as a surprise at 35 weeks) the moment Melissa arrived I felt a sense of calm in the chaos. Her ability to advocate for me in a way that didn't feel pushy or disrespectful of the medical team and then communicate with me in a supportive and positive way guided the tone of the room in a wonderful way.
in addition to the invaluable skills and knowledge she brings, Melissa is a genuine and kind person that I sincerely enjoy spending time with. I could not have asked for better support for our family in a moment that is inevitably magical and challenging!
