Check out what one of Andrea’s clients had to say about her.
My husband and I were just talking about our daughter's incredible vbac from November....again! He was pointing out how different her birth was from our son's and I believe so much of that is because of our hypno-doula, Andrea Showers and our Hypnobabies class. The environment in our hospital room was calm, comfortable, and so encouraging, thanks to the changes she made and her confident, calm presence. We will forever be grateful for the time she spent answering questions, reassuring us, and believing in me! Andrea wasn't just amazing before the birth but was instrumental in showing us different things to try to progress our baby's birth and get her into a better position. She also worked very hard physically on helping with various positions and exercises to keep our little one moving down. We also had Andrea do placenta encapsulation. To be honest, the idea of it kind of grossed me out but I really think consuming those capsules helped with postpartum healing and am glad we did it! For my son's birth in 2015, I thought I only wanted me and my husband in the room. After having one birth without a doula and one with I tell every pregnant person I know to HIRE A DOULA and use Hypnobabies. I also tell them that I think Andrea is the best... but I may be a little biased
