I had an incredibly positive time working with Elyse - she was communicative, enthusiastic, comptent, confident, flexible, and sensitive. I felt supported in the decisions that I made. I really appreciated her science-informed perspective. I ended up having a scheduled c-section because of breech presentation, and Elyse helped tremendously in educating me about cesarian sections and helping me feel good going into the birthday. I found her presence at the hospital to be calming, and I felt that she just showed up for me and my mother and my daughter in all sorts of ways I never could have anticipated and so appreciated.
