"Before the birth of my first child, I was in search of a music therapist who provided music therapy assisted child birth. As a music therapist, I know firsthand the power of music and I really wanted to experience that during this important event. Summer’s services were recommended to me by another music therapist and she is the best! She is truly amazing and has a gift for her work as a doula and providing music therapy assisted childbirth. It is easy to see that she whole heartedly loves her work and cares deeply for the wellbeing of others.
I felt so relieved to have her as my guide through the birth of my first daughter. We met once before the event to choose music, choose aroma therapy scents and talk through preparation. She recommended a nightly routine for my husband and I to relax and bond with the baby. This really helped me prepare. She was also able to take a tour of the hospital with me so she knew the space that would be used and was able to ask the staff any questions she had to make the experience a successful one. She was always available if I had any follow up questions. Summer knew just how to assist me during each stage of labor and provided great direction to my Mother and my husband who were also assisting. The music that we preselected really helped me to focus as well as relax. I’m so thankful that she incorporated aromatherapy as it benefited everyone in the room. I really enjoyed meeting with Summer for the review of the birth at our closure session. It was wonderful to talk about the timeline of events that had occurred that day. She reminded me of things that I didn’t even remember. She is so wonderfully supportive and made sure I had all the resources I needed to be successful. I highly recommend Summer’s services to anyone!"
