  "Sue was a great support throughout the pregnancy.  During her visits, on the phone or via e-mail, she listened and responded to all my concerns, from a worrisome ultrasound to handling the "PR" of a home birth. 

      On the day of, her presence was invaluable; she was calm, quiet, light-hearted and followed all my cues, coaching me while also giving me lots of space.  It was quite a balancing act. 

     Perhaps the hardest part of all is having to say goodbye to your midwives at the end of the day.  Even now, four months later, I'm glad they're just a phone call away."          Barbara Thomas

"I was so fortunate to meet Sue and her team and to have my baby at home in their care.  Home is so much more comfortable for mother and baby.  I will choose Sue again for my next baby."

"My homebirth experience could not have been better (except if it was labor-free).  I appreciate all the home visits.  I felt very cared-for and can't imagine how a hospital experience could have compared.  My daughter is a happy little home-birthed baby and my husband is a convert.  You won me over on day #1.  Los Angeles is lucky to have you! "

     At first, I smirked at the thought of a homebirth.  I chose to go the conventional ob/gyn route.  I really didn't know much about how a midwife could give me and the baby care.  Later on in my pregnancy, my eyes opened, thanks to my Bradly childbirth classes.  I began to realize that if I wanted certain things, like to walk, eat, keep my own clothes on, labor in water, etc....  I was going to be denied these things at the hospital.  So I began to interview midwives.  We examined our options of birth center verse homebirth.  When my husband and I met Sue, we knew we had found the right midwife for us. We are so grateful for everything Sue did for us before, during and after my pregnancy.  How blessed we are with a healthy beautiful baby!!"
