I aspire to help you prepare for your birth, and to be present during your birth, to provide you and your partner with comfort, relaxation, positioning and empowerment. From our meetings pre birth I can help to facilitate your birthing plan to the best of our abilities. I am not a clinical professional and will not make any medical decisions or provide medical advice; but I clarify what your medical professional team is saying and provide alternative options and an experienced point of view.
