Postpartum can be an incredibly tumultuos time, and for me, it was going well until it wasn't. When I was struggling, Cheryl immediately made herself available for support. I was hesitant to meet someone new during such a vulnerable time, but her warmth, compassion, kindness, and calm set me at ease from our very first meeting. She is an incredible listener, who asks you questions you didn't know you needed to answer. She has an amazing ability to guide you to your own truth and help you figure out what it means. Cheryl made sure to check in on me between our sessions and the care she has for those she works with is palpable. Sharing practice with Cheryl is powerful; she is responsive to your physical, mental, and emotional needs and you will leave each session feeling calmer, stronger, and more prepared for the challenges life throws your way. Let Love is a resource every postpartum mother would benefit from.

This experience was eye opening! There is so much I
didn't consider while preparing for my Birth that I learned
in this 8 week Birth prep series! I learned so much about
myself through this, I can't thank you enough, Cheryl!
I think every couple who plans on birthing should do the
partner workshop!

Cheryl truly pours her heart and soul into her work and it
clearly shows. Every session was very intentionally
prepared and I found all information very valuable for
pregnancy and beyond. This whole experience left a
lasting positive impact for me during this pregnancy! I
always looked forward to our time together the past
couple of months and I will miss it!

My doctor was out of town, giving birth with a doctor you don't fully trust or care for is incredibly challenging, but Cheryl's presence and support made it such a minor issue I hardly had to think about it. She was there for us the whole time, for anything we needed in any way we needed. Cheryl is firm enough to advocate for you but otherwise the most calming presence, like a warm hug in a person. She is so loving, kind, accepting, and she guides you to the parts of yourself you need to find, be with, and work through. She is so thoughtful and goes above & beyond. You can feel she was called to do this work, she was made for this, and that makes working with her that much more beautiful.

We headed to the hospital and on the way in called Cheryl to let her know it was happening. My wife's doctor was on vacation and that was really stressing her out so she wanted Cheryl to come to the hospital as soon as she was able to to help get us through, she showed up right away and helped coach us through everything we had practiced and learned leading up to these moments. Let me say I was not at all prepared, I am so glad Cheryl helped my wife cope through all of the pain and contractions, helped her remember what she wanted to do so she wasn’t just stuck on the bed on her back waiting for the doctor to come in for hours like our first go around...Cheryl kept everything flowing and was there for us every step of the way so I could just hold my wife in my arms and help her with what she needed from me. I would highly recommend her she is extremely helpful, never over steps in any way but she was there for us with all the support in every way imaginable for my wife as well as simple little things like knee pads for me so I wasn’t killing my knees for 5 hours on the hospital floor. She is exceptional at what she does and I am glad we found her when we did.

Reflecting back on Let Love's Birth Support Person Partner Workshop with my husband, I think about how much more connected we felt on the journey. The moments together to look at one another or speak without interruptions was huge for us in our noisy and full of life home.
After the workshop, I felt heard, and he felt confident to help me. This was new, even though it was our fourth birth. After the class together, my husband took the initiative to ask more questions and go through my birth plan to prepare to be my voice. He truly stepped up and used the comfort measures that we practiced in class.
Between being heard, having my husband engaged, and self talk that we practiced with Let Love, we were able to have the birth we wanted. This helped begin the healing from our 3 previous births that went in complete different directions than I had hoped.

Training with Cheryl at LetLove, LLC has been incredibly powerful, to say the least. She offers a unique set of skills from combining yoga with meditation and breath work to utilizing Birthing from Within and other techniques to help you and your partner to work through the transformative process of labor and delivery.

The Birth Support Person Partner Workshop helped me feel connected with my partner in ways we have never experienced. I truly enjoyed watching my partner learn more about the birthing experience and the connection with each other....I’m hoping we continue this practice through the rest of pregnancy and beyond. Thank you, Cheryl, for providing this experience for us!

Hearing other mothers’ stories more deeply vs. just sharing how long it took and a general recap of any major events was really healing to my heart. It felt real. Slowing down to process my own Birth also felt like a bit of weight lifted. I’m not entirely sure how to describe it, but sharing the REAL stuff made me feel better to say and hear.

If you are looking for a gift to give to a mother, expecting mother, or yourself - a practice time with Cheryl is a beautiful way to show your level of care. From the moment you enter Cheryl’s home, you are greeted with intention and care. She is able to confidently lead you through practice in a way to foster your growth physically and emotionally. In a word I would describe the experience during practices as nourishing, which is a testament to Cheryl’s skill. The gentle care, love, and support given so freely by Cheryl is an inspiration.

This was truly an amazing experience to be part of. Afterwards, it was one of my most relaxed weekends home with my family...I was more able to be in the moment and not overwhelmed because I took the time to nourish my body, mind, and spirit.

Working with Cheryl through Let Love has truly been an incredible experience. Cheryl guided me both mentally and physically, providing me with an opportunity to increase strength, re-gain flexibility, develop proper breathing and relaxation techniques, reduce stress/tension, and learn to activate my pelvic floor through each beautiful practice. Cheryl proved herself to be very knowledgeable when it comes to human anatomy and always provided modifications that made me feel comfortable and safe as my belly grew and my body continued changing week by week.
