How we’ll work together

My role is to support you emotionally and practically, help you feel confident in your choices, and keep things grounded — especially if plans change. I’m an advocate when you need one, but I won’t speak for you. It’s always your birth, your choices.

  • Evidence-based: we’ll talk through options, benefits and trade-offs in plain language.
  • Practical coping tools: movement, positions, breathing, comfort measures and environment.
  • Continuity and calm: steady presence and clear communication throughout.
