I had a lot of fear and uncertainty going into pregnancy. Thank you for your compassionate care and calming professionalism. I couldn’t have done it without you!

Amanda’s calm, steadying demeanor guided me through two VBAC homebirths. She presented information and options in a clear, unbiased manner; and she encouraged me to make informed decisions in the birthing process to discover my own strength of mind and body. Five big stars out of five.

You took great care of us because you took the time to get to know who we are. And this made all the difference at our birth.

Amanda’s practice is genuine and professional. I cannot imagine going through pregnancy without her help.

Amanda’s post-natal care is the best; it’s comprehensive, it’s supportive, and it reminds a momma that pregnancy, birth, and baby are a journey, not just a destination!
