Lindsey was an invaluable support to us during our pregnancy and birth of our second baby.
During our prenatal visits, Lindsey provided helpful ideas to consider about our birth preferences and how she could support us. She encouraged me to think about my comfort and what could help to maximize it during labour and delivery and important logistical considerations for the immediate postpartum such as feeding our baby, caring for our older child, and my rest and recovery. She also encouraged us to discuss how we could support each other through our birth and early postpartum and it was very useful to have these conversations prior to the birth.
During labour, Lindsey was comforting and nurturing and helped us to stay as relaxed and “in the moment” as possible. She was very supportive of our birthing plan/hopes and the choices we made during our delivery. She used strong communication skills to work collaboratively with the doctors and nurses. This allowed us to completely focus on the labour and work through each contraction. Lindsey is very knowledgeable about different positions to labour in for maximum comfort and effectiveness in moving the baby down and into the best position for birth which was incredibly beneficial for us. Something that I really appreciated was that Lindsey ensured that I provided consent before medical procedures/exams to ensure that I was as informed and comfortable as possible. Our delivery felt calm and empowering and we would absolutely recommend Lindsey to anyone looking for birth support.
We are so grateful to have had Lindsey’s support for our birth and truly feel that she was integral to making it such a positive experience.
