What parents say
I cannot recommend my experience birthing with Erin at Intimate Journey enough. I felt so supported through my pregnancy and fully empowered during labor and delivery.
I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to experience pregnancy, childbirth and the beginning of motherhood with Intimate Journey Birth and Wellness. From the first time I met Erin, I felt safe and supported and looked forward to every appointment with her.
I am so excited that I can now write this testimonial after I read every one of these during my pregnancy and prayed that I would have an experience like so many others have had with Erin.
I found out I was pregnant with our second baby after recently moving to SLO from San Diego. Ironically, our first baby was born at the same center where Erin had also recently moved from. It seemed like it was meant to be when I called her and found this out.
