Hannah has a very warm personality. On our first meetings, she was open, non-judgemental and really took her time getting to know us. I never felt like we were under a time-constraint. She was generous with her time, energy, and expertise. During labor, Hannah was very attentive and present. She offered gentle touch during intense contractions and helped me to center and focus on my breath. She had many helpful tools in her doula bag and was super encouraging and proactive in helping me to move or find positions that would be more comfortable. I am a second time mom. My first birth was a home birth. Because of my age and some health complications, I had to have a hospital birth which made me feel very anxious. Hannah helped me and my husband by informing us of general hospital birth procedures, helped us put together our labor plan, and when it came time, she did an incredible job advocating for us and reminding nurses and midwives of our wishes. I had the closest thing to a home-birth-feeling hospital birth as I could have had, and I am completely convinced that it would not have been that way without Hannah's help! She truly has a calling as a doula. I would recommend her highly for home birth or hospital birth!
