About my birth services:
"Shelly was everything and more. She allowed me to push past what I thought I could not and to realize that although my birth may not have gone according to my plan, it was perfect in every way. Thank you so much, we could not have done it without you."
~ LaDawna, mom to Dominic, born 3/8/08
"Having Shelly as an asset both in the months leading up to and at my baby’s birth was invaluable. She offered me advice, a wealth of knowledge and support, and above all increased my own self-confidence to make the choices that were right for my family. During the birth, she was there offering emotional and physical support, making each contraction that much more manageable and the whole experience that much better. My prenatal and birth experience were as great as they were because of Shelly."
~ Simcha, mom to Netanel Aryeh, born 6/26/08
~ Robert, dad to Owen Alexander, born 8/19/08
About my birth consultation services:
"What impressed me most about Shelly was her positive, encouraging nature. Any questions I asked were handled with sensitivity. Communicating with her was comfortable. She was always very respectful of my parenting choices. Shelly took the time to find out what my actual values are, rather than assuming what they are or should be. That meant a lot to me."
~ Jen H. mom to Chloe, born 3/18/08
About my workshops and private classes:
"I asked Shelly if she could stop by and discuss cloth diapering with me. I also invited a friend who was interested. Shelly presented us with a workshop quality consultation! It was concise yet very informative. She brought examples of different diaper options and taught us how to use them, including diaper folding. She educated us on the benefits of cloth diapering, but was also honest when discussing possible drawbacks. She brought a printout for us of clearly organized information about many aspects of diaper use and care, and went over it with us, answering any questions we had. She also provided us with internet resources and made herself available to us if we should ever need her. It was fantastic. She was encouraging without being pushy. My friend and I both went from overwhelmed to empowered!"
~ Jen H. Mom to Chloe, born 3/18/08, cloth diapering workshop participant
