Testimonials:

My husband and I recently took a birthing class instructed by Ruth Kraft. Because of the class, we feel much more aware of all of our birthing options. We also really enjoyed the experience. It is obvious that Ruth is very educated in birthing; she continuely reads up on birthing information, and attends conferences and lectures. She is very passionate about pregnancy and birth in general. We are very thankful to have met her and to have her involved in our first experience with pregnancy

I think that Ruth is one of the best-educated and devoted resources for expectant mothers and new moms. She brings to her clients a high-level of expertise, knowledge, and practical guidance. I recommend her services without any reservations

I dragged my husband to this class and he was so glad I did….it was wonderful!!!!! A class everyone needs to attend. Ruth is so imformative! I wish I took this class earlier because I learned so much about how important it is to have the birth you want! Good timing for everything…all questions were answered and we left there learning soooo much!!!! Thanks for a wonderful class and now we are more excited about our new baby

Hey Ruth,
We are so glad to finally be home! Baby is doing great and one of the labor nurses (Jackie) asked for your contact info. She told all the nurses on the floor how great you were and wanted to recommend you to a friend of hers who needs a Doula soon.
Talk to you soon!

Ruth did not have the opportunity to attend my daughter Isabela’s birth, because she was born out-of-state during the active 2004 hurricane season. However, Ruth did provide postpartum care and services for up to 18 months after Isabela’s birth. Ruth provided reassurance, answered questions, and most importantly, helped me through the times I doubted my mothering abilities. Her assistance was truly invaluable to me and to Isabela. She truly understands the emotional mind and physiological needs of children in their newborn and toddler stages.

Before ever meeting Ruth I assisted the LM I work with attending the birth of one of Ruth’s CBE clients, an interesting couple and if not for her support I wonder if they would have been a homebirth couple at all. It is refreshing to have an independent childbirth educator in the WPB area that supports natural childbirth and homebirth as choices. I first met Ruth online and was impressed with her photos.

The decision to hire a doula to attend our daughter’s birth was one of the best choices we made in our journey to parenthood. From the moment I looked pregnant, people began to discuss – in great detail – the trauma of their birth experiences. And while this information was not empowering on its own, it helped cement our resolve to enjoy our birth experience with the help of an experienced birth “mentor.”

Ruth, There are no words to express how much my pregnancy photos mean to me. I have a beautiful set hanging in my bedroom and they are a reminder of a wonderful, happy time that is over all too quickly. They are among my very few “evacuation items”
