When we interviewed Tatiana, my husband and I felt an immediate connection with her. Tatiana is a compassionate, empathetic, and highly knowledgeable individual.
Tatiana shared many very useful resources which helped me further prepare for my birth. During our prenatal meetings, she helped us finalize our birth plan, practice laboring positions, and most importantly for me she made me feel confident and capable to have an unmedicated birth.
Whenever I had questions about my pregnancy or wanted a second opinion on something we discussed with the midwife, Tatiana was just a text away, providing valuable perspective on a wide variety of topics.
I was eager to have Tatiana join me at home once I was in active labor. She came to my home quickly, arriving within 30 minutes of my call. Upon her arrival she helped me by suggesting different laboring positions, active hands-on support in the form of massage, counter pressure, hip squeezes, and attaching a TENS unit to my back.
When we went to the hospital, Tatiana was right alongside me during triage where the nurse told me I was a remarkable 8-9 cm dilated!
When nurses or midwives suggested intetventions like artificial rupture of memberanes/ breaking my water, Tatiana took time to discuss my thoughts with me, creating space for me to make an informed decision.
I was able to achieve an unmedicated birth in the hospital with my first child, and I truly do not think it would have been possible without Tatiana's expert support. Beyond her enabling me to reach my goal, she has become a true friend to my family, forging deep personal bonds.
I absolutely love Tatiana and would highly recommend you hire her to join your birth team if she has availability for you!
