"Thank you so much for meeting with us yesterday. It helped ease my mind sooo much and it was awesome to hear it first person and the real deal; not the beautified or horror story version. I really appreciate you taking the time to help me/us through this and for being so understanding and helpful through all my questions and worries!!"

"I really enjoyed these classes! I think every first-time mom would benefit! I really appreciate Sandy's fun and candid nature! She is approachable and definetely experienced. We went over stages of labor, and watched birth stories, practiced positions, went over nutrition and more. It was also a great way to start good conversations between my husband and I about expectations at birth. I feel ready to have my baby! "

"Taking Sandy's class was so helpful for my husband and myself. She gave us so much good advice and many great and hilarious anecdotes. I even thought about her in the midst of my contractions as I was making deep guttural sounds: not caring how many people heard me. She had told our class that that would happen and boy was she right! It was encouraging to remember in the midst of an intense experience. We are so grateful to have been able to take her class."
