“My previous care had ranged from dismissive to traumatic but never anything positive. This is completely different. I look forward to visits and conversations with Shawna and always feel amazing afterwards. It is night and day to have a midwife who truly listens.”
-Aaliyah S.
“Sitting and talking with Shawna is the connection I have been seeking in my health care. I truly feel like we are a team and I can ask her anything. I was so dismayed at the quick prenatal visits, being just a number in practices I have worked with in the past. This is a total different experience.”
-Imani H.
“As the partner to someone pregnant, Shawna fully empowered me to be part of the birth in a way I never though I could be. It was one of the most special times that my partner and I have shared together, and that’s because Shawna prepared us, but also let us have our experience uninterrupted.”
-Matt B.
“Shawna is absolutely amazing. She goes above and beyond for her clients. My husband and I were so grateful to have the home birth experience that we were hoping for. When it came time for the birth she came and stayed nearby until the baby arrived, and drove to us for our postpartum visits. I cannot recommend Shawna highly enough. She demonstrated the highest quality of pregnancy and postpartum care.”
-Toni M.
