" I do not care what type of Birth you have... a home birth, a scheduled caesarean or if you birth alone in the woods next to a baby deer.
I care that you had options, that you were supported in your choices,
and that you were respected "
•January Harshe •

FIONA SHERWOOD
& BABY FRASER
GENTLE CAESAREAN
“ Dear Jade
it has been such a pleasure getting to know you, having you on my team & guiding me through my pregnancy & birth.
Fraser is very happy to be here & I am delighted at how smooth, calm & peaceful his birth was, with all thanks to you.
You were a real expert, mentor & friend throughout the process & it wouldn’t have been the same without you.
Thanks for all the encouragement & kindness.
You are an inspiration! "

“ I couldn't thank Jade enough for the role she played throughout my pregnancy & delivery, which resulted in me finally achieving my VBA2C at home in the pool.
Throughout the entire journey Jade was an absolute pillar of support and fountain of knowledge which truly aided me in achieving the birth I so desperately wanted.
In such a challenging climate what with COVID restrictions and a lack of continuity of care in the public healthcare services. I really found Jades presence and support filled a huge gap that would have otherwise left me feeling very stranded and anxious.
Absolutely worth every penny and more and we would hire her again in a heartbeat if we decide to have more children
- can not thank her enough. "
JESSICA MCEWEN & BABY PENELOPE
HOME BIRTH
“ I can't believe that I've only know Jade a few months, In that time she has listened, supported, made me laughand given me the confidence to have the birth that I want.
When Jade turned up during the birth,
I burst into tears at the relief of having her there by my side.
An advocate, calming influence and seasoned birth pro - I felt in the safest of hands, particularly during the hip squeezes!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping get Penny in our arms "
