Testimonials
"Therese stayed by my side and most importantly, talked to me in her calm, soothing voice, which is something that I appreciated from the first moment I met her. She told me what to expect after having the c-section while I was in the hospital, which really prepared me, since was my first hospital stay ever. We talked several times during the 5 days I stayed in the hospital and she helped me with information for my own recovery, as well as breastfeeding tips to use while I was in the hospital. I am sure that her advice really helped me feel confident in my abilities and led to my daughter, Najah, successfully latching on her second day of life, and then 3 days later, after having been fed formula by tube and bottle."

"Ms. Robinson offered a lot of support and comfort through massage, breathing and just coaching me through contractions. She was a great asset to my labor and delivery." "I have learned so much from Ms. Robinson. From her teachings I have decided to never have another hospital birth. I look forward to working with Ms Robinson in the future with the birth of my next child in my home or nearby birthing center."

"Therese was a constant support to the patient throughout labor. She provided massage, assisted in changing positions, and provided constant encouragement. She also gave the patient advice via telephone before the patient decided to come to the hospital, enabling her to be admitted in full, active labor. Therese was a wonderful support, facilitating the laboring patient to be able to labor naturally for a very long time before eventually choosing medication assistance."

"Therese created a strong bond with both the client and her husband. Her presence was also valued by me and the nurse. Her support was very effective, especially around the surgery. Therese has a good sense of when to hang back and let the client rest or have time alone with her partner versus when to take a more active role. She came prepared with many tools including birthing ball, radio, etc. Her enthusiasm and joy to be present were unfaltering during the long labor."
