"Jen doesn't beat the drum of "what is" in birth, she will expand your mind to see the potential that women have for growth and ecstacy by embarking on the path with excitement and an open mind... yes, there is a lot more to birth than we have been told, commonly imagine or expect!"

"You have changed my life in a way that I never imagined. I feel empowered, joyful, open and beautiful"

"Jennifer is a gifted healer and I am amazed by her intuition, grace and open heart. Every time I felt my strength waning you had the vision and presence to see me through blocks and barriers I didn't even know existed. It was like you were in my heart and you just saw me and cared for my soul and I am so grateful."

"Thank you, Jen, for inspiring and empowering expecting mothers the way you do. We need more women like you in the world."  

"Jen has been an incredible inspiration to my passionately wanting a natural birth for the new Life I'm expecting.  Her accounts of her own labors as well as those of others she has attended convey her unwavering belief in the woman's body to harness and manage the power of birth, and in doing so, avoid the kinds of unnecessary medical interventions which put both mother and baby at risk.  Jen has empowered my sense of ownership of my labour and my child's birth, and I dream of making both her and I proud when the day arrives and I am given the opportunity to put her information and advice into practice.  Thank you, Jen, for inspiring and empowering expecting mothers the way you do. We need more women like you in the world."

"Jen is a never-ending fountain of compassion."  

"Jen is, in a word, amazing. Her prenatal care was truly wholistic, in a way I'd never experienced before. We were on the same page every step of the way, and she completely supported my choices and processes. Jen is a never-ending fountain of compassion.  She took the time to build a relationship with our family, so when it came to the birthing process, it was easy to feel calm -- I knew Jen had my back. Best of all, the post-natal care surpassed all my expectations! Jen's care recognized me as a whole person, and our family as an organism in its own right. We are truly grateful and recommend her services to everyone. Thanks, Jen, You really are amazing. :)"

"Having attended other birthing classes with doula clients, I can say that this curriculum is very unique and holistic."

"I have sat in on two of Jennifer's birthing classes, once as a doula and once in my own pregnancy. Jennifer teaches birth physiology, psychology, and goes deeply into the emotional and spiritual aspects of this rite of passage.  The women and their partners really take a look at their fears, belief systems, cultural rituals, and the science of birth.  Having attended other birthing classes with doula clients, I can say that this curriculum is very unique and holistic."

"Listening to Jennifer talk about birthing always changes my life."

 

"Listening to Jennifer talk about birthing always changes my life. I do not feel the desire to procreate, and yet when she discusses the natural rite of passage, the spirituality and sexuality involved in it, it makes me want to participate. I think that any person, young or old, no matter the gender, can benefit from knowing the inspirational truth about birthing and the female body."

"I'm so very thankful to know you & to have shared the journey of birth with you. Your knowledge, passion & trust in the process are truly empowering & I feel blessed to have met when we did (just in time for Kaya). What you teach about birth can so easily translate to all aspects of life & that is a sure sign to me that what you have to share is deep truth!"
