“We were so lucky we found our birth consultant, Elan McAllister. Shia and I called her our Samurai, because she just helped us so much. She was there with us during the birth and helped sort of devise the dance of the birth. She was unbelievably helpful.”

—Vanessa Kirby, actor, Pieces of a Woman

 

“Elan is an incredible resource on birth, babies and women. All of this along with her fiery strength and intuitive, kind-hearted nature makes her someone you want on your team when you are having a baby!”

—Jacquelyn Karnes, Portland, OR

 

“My partner and I met with Elan days after finding out that I was pregnant. Me being in graduate school and ours being an unexpected pregnancy, I was in shock and I was scared. Elan empathically talked us through unique and varying birthing options that matched our financial capabilities, and I left our initial meeting feeling empowered and committed to having the birth that I wanted. Her wealth of knowledge opened doors for us that we didn't know existed.”

—Carey Anderson, New York, NY
