Kristi, Michele, Beth and everyone at Talbot Creek Midwifes, were amazing in helping me achieve the pregnancy and natural and unmedicated birth I had always wanted!
Prenatal appointments were relaxing, educational, and confidence building. They were so much more then just preforming the necessary checks to keep myself and baby healthy. They included chats about life, common interests that we shared, and reassuring conversations about what I really wanted for my labour and delivery.
When the big day came I felt prepared and confidant, even when the unexpected happened and my daughter was born at home, unassisted, before my team, or even the EMS, were able to get there. When Kristi arrived she walked into a home of complete chaos and brought an encouraging and comforting calm. She made us feel at ease and took care of our every need. From making sure I was fed and hydrated, to helping clean up the mess we had not prepared our home for, she thought of everything!
Postpartum care was better and more involved then I had even imagined it would be. The whole team helped us to celebrate and enjoy the arrival of our little girl. They helped us to debrief and mentally process our crazy labour and birth, and answered every question (no matter how small)! Thanks to resources they had provided and conversations that had happened prenatally, we felt prepared and equipped and were able to start off on the right foot with minimal hiccups.
I would highly recommend Talbot Creek Midwives to anyone! Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine interest in all of their patients not only exceeds the standard of care, but your greatest expectation!
