I felt so well cared for and respected during pregnancy, labor and delivery. Samantha listened to me, and asked permission before doing ANYTHING, she answered my questions thoroughly, and she trusted that I knew my body.

Most importantly, during my labor my husband got to be involved as much as possible and Samantha was so accommodating with that desire. 

When my baby had to be hospitalized a couple days after birth Samantha came with us to the emergency room. She helped advocate for me when the ER doctor was treating me badly, and stayed by my side until we were admitted. She helped me figure out how to use the hospital breast pump and asked questions I didn’t even think to ask. I frequently think back to this period of time with such immense gratitude for the way Samantha helped me during the scariest experience of my life. I sincerely don’t know what [we] would’ve done without her. 

I can’t recommend her enough if you’re looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and empowering midwife for your home birth!

“As a first time mother, I was very apprehensive about having a non-medicated natural birth. Samantha was very helpful in providing me information and motivation. When I went into labor she came to my house to labor with me and stayed with us until after our son was born. I am very thankful that we were able to have Samantha with us for such an important time in our lives.”
