My husband and I worked with Emily for our first baby and first home birth. The amount of education and support she provided well exceeded my expectations. Emily came to our prenatal visits with a plethora of resources and handouts and allowed us to guide the conversation when we had questions and took charge when we didn’t. When it came time, and labor had started, Emily was easy to reach and came over when I decided I needed some extra support. When she showed up, she immediately started observing how I was responding to labor and gave me options for coping and working with contractions. This was a huge weight off my shoulders as I was unsure myself and how far along I was. Her energy was validating. Throughout the rest of my labor, she was very attentive. Almost as if she knew exactly what I needed and when I needed it. I rarely felt the need to ask for anything. I wouldn’t have changed a thing.
