Testimonial
"...I have to say though that the biggest gifts Maggie gave us were the tools to advocate for ourselves in the birth process. She helped us create a birth plan and coached us on how to talk about what we needed with hospital staff. My husband and I had the confidence to ask the nurses and midwives for what we wanted -- and we got it. I felt like a rockstar after my birth and felt so much more relaxed and prepared for motherhood, and I owe a huge part of that to Maggie..."-Erin
