Praise for Mary
"Choosing to spend 10 weeks taking Birth Boot Camp with Mary was easily one of the best decisions of my pregnancy. We went into the class not knowing much about labor and delivery except what is portrayed on tv and movies, and finished the class feeling confident, empowered, and excited. Mary is one of the most compassionate and gentle people I have ever met and I am eternally grateful for all the physical, mental and emotional support she has offered me, from day one of class to even now, after my sweet babe was born." -Kayla, new parent, Comprehensive class
"Mary’s counsel and class were priceless for the birth of our second child. We had a bad experience with the hospital birth of our first child so we went a different route the second time. The information we learned at birth boot camp really prepared us and put both of us at ease. I highly recommend her class no matter what route you choose for your birth. Our second birth was our dream birth. Thanks Mary!" -Courtney, mom of 2, Hospital class
"Twins present unique challenges, so the birth "plan" was not really in my control. Mary was a wonderfully supportive, calming, and cheering presence throughout the whole experience. She freed up my husband to stay with our babies while I recovered from a C-section, and she went with one of the twins when they were occasionally separated so that my newborns were never alone. There are few people I would trust with that intimate responsibility. Mary is humble and exudes comfort and love. With my whole heart, I would encourage anyone to seek her out for support during and after a pregnancy and birth." -Christine, mom of 4, doula services
"Birth Boot Camp with Mary played such a huge role in our homebirth journey. We were so prepared and confident, especially my husband, for baby #3 to arrive. This course covers everything for in- or out-of-hospital births--it's perfect for all families." -Kelli, mom of 3, Comprehensive class
"ALL THE STARS!!! This class was the absolute best. It exceeded our expectations and we felt loved and supported by this amazing woman. She is a top notch educator and a wealth of information. I will highly recommend her to any mama- or daddy-to-be!" -Amanda, Hospital class
"I tell everyone I hear who is pregnant that the best thing Ali and I did was take Mary's Birth Boot Camp classes. She brought us knowledge and confidence heading into our due date which we would not have gotten without her. Even though our birth plan ended up getting thrown out of the window due to complications Ali and I were able to make educated decisions during her labor. We have absolutely no regrets after our labor all thanks to Mary for getting us prepared for our big day. Thanks for everything and for not being boring during our Friday night classes. You kept Ali and I entertained through your teachings." -Cameron, Comprehensive class
"Mary was incredible in helping my wife and I prepare for our little one's arrival. Her breadth of knowledge is amazing and she really helped us come up with a birthing plan. She had such immense compassion and respect for our goals and needs." Sam, doula services
