“I had the most beautiful home birth with Anne. I am so grateful she was there to guide me through. Her calm confidence was very reassuring throughout the labor. This was my second home birth, but my first with Anne, and her skills and knowledge were incomparable to my last midwives. So grateful I chose her, and if I have another child it will definitely be with Anne!”

“When I first got pregnant I did as most do and went to go see an OBGYN and that was a horrible experience for me and my hubby! It was the most intrusive painful examination I have ever had! She was rude and hard to bare. My husband was appalled, as was I. So this horrible experience launched us into more research as far as options go, we began anew without much support we started to looking into hiring a midwife. I made 10 calls and Anne was the first to call me back. Her energy and loving essence glowed and I knew I was making the right decision so we didn't pursue to interview any more midwives. Anne always kept us updated and kept her knowledge known she always shared what was on her mind and presented all the facts to make sure that we were going to make the right decision for us. We grew closer to her with each day and now I feel like shes part of the family. The day of the birth of my son,was a magical day, everyone wanted to be there my house was crowded and it started to interfere with my concentration but Anne always grounded me. All and all a great experience one that will be stored in my memory for the rest of my life and on. i hope that Anne will still be in practice as our family grows. Anne has inspired my love for midwifery and the beautiful birthing cycle.”

“Where do I begin...We were looking into a home birth mid-wife and found Anne Sommers. Within days after our first consultation, my wife began having complications, and long story short, we had a miscarriage. During this time, we reached out to Anne as we had a strong sense that we could trust her and depend on her, especially given the fact that we have had horrible experiences in "the system" with our first three children. Well, we could not have imagined how right we were. Anne walked us through this difficult time, step by step along the whole way, answering texts and phone calls promptly, even late at night, offering support and guidance all along the way. In contrast, we had tried calling (on a Sunday) an OB doc that had delivered our first child and were told by the answering service that they would not pass along our message to reach the doctor on a Sunday because we were not a current patient. Wow. Anne felt like a mother and a professional at the same time. The kicker is, we never signed a contract with her yet, and she never once mentioned being compensated for her time. She was clearly more interested in our well being than in making a buck. I have worked in medicine for 24 years now, and have become a bit disheartened with the care being given within "the system," but people like Anne remind me that there is hope for real CARE. Her loving care and support has truly turned our experience from a nightmare to one of hope. She has taken the sharp edge off our experience, and mitigated what could have added insult to injury had we been marginalized once again by our modern day health system. Thank you Anne.”

“Baby #4...first home birth. I was very pleased by the service Anne gave us. She has become more of a friend to me and my family. Anne did the normal prenatal visits in her office, and went beyond her duty at the postpartum and months to follow. She made room for me and baby to come in for visits a few months after delivery for baby's weigh in and just to see how we were getting along. Anne would be one of the first people I call if we are ever blessed with baby #5. Love you Anne."

"Anne,
Nick and I want to thank you so much for all you have done for us. We felt so comfortable having you as our midwife and we thank God for giving us this blessing. God has truly worked through you to help us deliver our little Tyler. I know it was a rough labor but it's awesome to see how he had his hand in it the whole time. We are so thankful again for all you've done and we hope we did not scare you enough in case we have a baby again. We would love to have you again.
God bless you! Love Nick, Stephanie and Tyler".
