Words from Families

  • A beige ceramic vase with a narrow neck and rounded body containing dried branches, placed on a wooden surface with a shadow cast on the wall behind.

    "Asking Heather to attend my second born's birth was one of the best decisions I have ever made. She is a beautiful, rare balance of knowledge and intuition, and is always ready to bring her wisdom into a birth space. She approaches birth like the sacred experience it is, and cuts no corners in making sure that her clients are as well equipped as they can be for what's to come. "

    "Heather's midwifery care is the whole package - she brings knowledge, confidence, safety, compassion, flexibility, and personalized care. From the moment my husband and I met with her, we'd know she'd be a great fit for our family and we trusted her to help us birth our newest addition. I'd recommend her care over and over again."
