My clients are my heroes...but i make a good sidekick...
I consider it a huge honour to be a part of this pivotal time in peoples' lives. Birth-giving, in all of its variations, is simultaneously beautiful and totally bad-ass. Nurturing a newborn involves hourly acts of resilience, creativity and grace. Bearing witness and helping in my way is a responsibility I undertake with great dedication...but seriously - these people do all the hard work! And then they go and say all these ridiculously kind and generous things about me. Thank you to my dear, dear clients who type these up on precious little sleep in a postpartum haze. Which is why I edit them...but if you'd like to read more in their complete, un-edited glory, click over here to Doulamatch.com (a wonderful third party site that collects most of them for me so they're totes legit).
