Although I have prepared a general outline, I'm here for you and I'm flexible. We can talk about whatever you'd like during our visits.

I will be on call for your labor from the 38th week of pregnancy, until baby arrives. This means no matter what time labor unfolds, I will be there to answer questions and offer support. Generally, I join my clients in their home during active labor and stay until 1-2 hours after birth.
