One Mother's Experience:
"I knew as soon as I was pregnant with our second child that I wanted a home birth; my husband was not so sure. Sherry was recommended to us by a family friend (and retired midwife). We knew she was the one we wanted to invite into our sacred birthing space before our first meeting was over. We love Sherry's direct approach to topics surrounding birth. She's not a beat-around-the-bush type of person. Her calm demeanor put us at ease. It was after a few appointments that my husband was on board with the idea of home birth. Sherry never rushed our appointments and we felt she was available to us when we needed her and her guidance. With Sherry we felt listened to, supported and safe in her care. Prenatally and postpartum, she was great at listening to our questions and we loved how she didn't just answer our questions but made sure we understood the "why" and/or "how". We are so happy to have been in the care of Sherry for the birth of our healthy baby boy, at home."
