Testimonials

Dear Jo,

How do you thank someone who has been pivotal in such an empowing and life-changing experience? Well I will sure try because I really want to.

My pregnancy was already progressing as an intensely magical time, especially for me but also for Chris. I hadn't considered the birth to a great extent.

Lina's workshop showed us a glimpse of another way and a beautiful way to labour and birth and then you, Jo, helped us make it happen!

"...Jo attended appointments at the hospital with us throughout the pregnancy and provided much support and encouragement to both myself as the partner and my partner Nelle who was going through the pregnancy. We often relied on Jo's thorough knowledge, instinct and practical support ...When the time came for Nelle to give birth she developed pre-eclampsia and it was decided for the safety of Nelle and our baby that she should have a caesarean. This was a stressful time for us as first time parents and Jo continued to reassure and strengthen us even though this was not our preferred birth outcome..."

"Joanne is a warm, kind and generous person that has supported me through two of my pregnancies and was present during the labour and birth of our first son Alec. Her love and support through this special time in our life and her continuing support and friendship has been invaluable. Joanne instinctively knew what I needed during this time and was a great support person to both my husband and myself. "
