“I had an incredible and empowering first birth experience with Rachel as my midwife. She made me and my husband feel so safe and supported throughout my entire labor, giving us updates and encouragement from start to finish in a clam and confident manner. We had full trust in her!”

Rebecca Poole-Gulick

“We are so grateful we had Rachel at the birth of our daughter. She always put any of my worries at ease and supported all of my choices leading up to my daughter’s birth. While in labor Rachel made me feel so empowered, supported, safe, cared for and loved. From the moment my water broke until my baby was in my arms we hit exactly the 24 hour mark. Rachel helped my labor along with homeopathic remedies, physical comfort techniques, encouragement and many other suggestions. She met me exactly where I was emotionally and physically and never left my side. Rachel encouraged hours of uninterrupted skin to skin time. While I snuggled in with my new baby she got a bath ready for me and some porridge. I felt so held in the most vulnerable yet strongest moment of my life. During postpartum she came to my home and supported me with breastfeeding, answered all of my questions about my birth story and my baby. Throughout my whole journey Rachel had a beautiful way of using her sense of humor to make me comfortable and at ease- I felt so safe and grounded with her. I feel forever grateful to have had Rachel by my side! I cannot recommend her enough!

“Rachel’s expertise, passion for birth and genuine compassion for her patients were evident at every appointment. As a first-time mom, this was incredibly reassuring. Having a physiological birth was deeply important to me, and her calming presence and encouraging words during my son’s birth provided exactly the support I needed to stay grounded and connected to my body throughout the experience.”

During our birth she performed beautifully during a tricky situation at the time of our delivery. Her confidence and trustworthy personality makes her shine in all situations.

Kerry and Tim Francis

I birthed my daughter into warm water in the middle of a cold, February night. Birthing her was a sacred, beautiful, and deeply transformative experience in which I felt held, protected, and loved throughout the entire process. I am endlessly grateful to our midwife, Rachel, who supported me through the birth. Rachel was a steady, loving, and wise presence the entire time. With Rachel there, I felt as though my choices and my own body’s wisdom were able to lead. I was in a fearless place, completely focused within myself, while also knowing that Rachel was making sure all was well. The moment I birthed my daughter, Rachel shared with us in our family’s joy and relief. I felt like the angels had arranged for us the perfect midwife for this beautiful birth of our first baby, and I will tell my daughter the story of her birth, and how she came into the world with ease, with love, and with joy. We remain forever grateful to Rachel for her care, her expertise, and her steady, love-filled presence at our daughter’s birth.
