Johnetta was a wonderful source of support during the later part of my pregnancy and during labor. As a former school teacher, she is very talented at explaining things in an accessible and encouraging way, which put both me and my husband at ease. She also keeps up with the latest research and evidence-based recommendations about birthing options, which we appreciate as hyper-analytical people. We also valued that she was willing to draw from and share her own varied birth experiences- meaning that she had walked this path personally and knew intimately what we were going through.

At the hospital, Johnetta guided us through the birthing journey--including when it took a number of unanticipated turns-- and my husband said he felt much more confident in supporting me while we had Johnetta supporting both of us. I trusted Johnetta completely during the birth and discussed each suggestion from the midwives and OB-GYNs with her before we implemented them. Johnetta has such a gift for the work she does, and you shouldn't hesitate to entrust her with your experience.
