In addition to attending births, I also have the pleasure of teaching childbirth classes and encapsulating placentas. Read more

... Shannon was another part of our team through our entire pregnancy. She would check in after our OB appointments and give me feedback about his suggestions. She never made me feel pushed into making any sort of decisions or judged about the ones I made. ...

Post birth she checked up on us and brought my placenta encapulation pills (which I also highly recommend.)
I honestly don't know how anybody could give birth without a doula (and my labor was as short as it gets)-- we feel very lucky that Shannon was ours! -

The sessions with Shannon before and after the birth, as well as many emails and text along the way, were also extremely valuable - her responsiveness and resourcefulness gave us great comfort and assurance. We also took her birth class which was a great way to get even further aligned on knowledge and approach.
I highly highly recommend Shannon and look forward to working with her again!
