Testimonial for Eve Gordon, BA
Eve was a wonderful and reassuring person who communicated my birth plan & cared deeply to match my needs. She was incredibly flexible and understanding when my pregnancy was over two weeks late.
On the morning of my daughter’s home birth, I felt calmed by her gentle, confident, and reassuring presence from the moment Eve arrived. Although my labor progressed very quickly, I felt safe, held, and unafraid in her capable hands. Eve’s demeanor was a perfect blend of sensitivity, reassuring, and confidence with a clear direction of how to best support my needs during each surge. It was as if she could sense what I needed both physically for relief such as water or help changing positions, and also she knew when to use her skillset such as hip squeezing pressure and other helpful pain management maneuvers. I felt as if a caring aunt was guiding me and knew my needs intuitively. Eve also provided an extra amazing treat, during the pushing portion of my labour she took beautiful photos capturing the unforgettable joyful moments when my daughter was born!
After the birth, I appreciated Eve staying at my home and caring for me, and providing what felt like luxurious attention by asking what I needed such as water and snacks, settling me and my little one into my bed, and giving me a very soothing foot massage to ease my discomfort. I feel honored to have had Eve as part of my birth story, to guide and support me and relieve my discomfort and fears.
