Guiding Hands Midwifery

Choosing Guiding hands as my Midwifery and Lydia as my Midwife was the best choice I could have made. After my experience I could not fathom ever going anywhere else. Lydia was there for me through every step of pregnancy, labor, and delivery. Because of her I was able to have my baby girl without an epidural and we are both healthy. My family all have said how much they loved Lydia and how touching it was to see her help me through the parts of labor where I didn’t know if I could do it. She makes you feel empowered and like her only priority.

Going to Jenda for my prenatal care was the best decision we could have made! She was open and honest and answered all of our questions. We would have never had our perfect labor/birth without her by our sides.

Jenda is incredible! She has delivered both of my babies, and she was a game-changer both times as each labor/delivery had its own challenges. She encouraged us early on to take Bradley Method classes, and my husband learned how to be the best labor coach. He and Jenda worked great together as my support, and she was right there the whole time, very confident, strong, but also gentle and yielding when possible. I had both boys with no medication/epidural, and Jenda is a huge reason why. She really cares during every stage of the process—even postpartum. She’s truly doing what she was made to do, and she’s doing it EXCELLENTLY. Tess is also amazing and very calming and personable. I always look forward to hearing her voice on the phone or seeing her in the office. They’re an amazing team!

I could not have gone through an unmedicated birth without Jenda. She is AMAZING. She always took the time I needed while in the office, calmed me when I was nervous about things throughout my pregnancy, and took such great care of me during labor, delivery, and postpartum. Amazing staff and service! Love these women!

We had the pleasure of working with Jenda throughout my prenatal experience, and then both Jenda and Lydia attended my labor/delivery, and I cannot say enough good things about them and our experience! They both jumped right in and helped me find comfortable positions for each contraction! I have had three babies, all with different midwives due to moving states. I was extremely sceptical of having to work with another new midwife, but I am very pleased with our decision to use Guiding Hands Midwifery! This was my favorite delivery so far, and I know a lot of that had to do with the encouragement and knowledge that both Jenda and Lydia offered! My older two kids loved joining me for all the prenatal visits with Jenda and the entire office does so well making older siblings feel welcomed! Jenda, Lydia and their staff are all amazing, I would choose them again in a heartbeat!!

I cannot say enough good things about Lydia. She is absolutely amazing! I couldn’t have achieved the birth that I wanted without her! She has an amazing heart and is so good at her job! �

I transferred to Lydia’s care in the last trimester of my pregnancy from an Omaha OBGYN and it was the best decision I made during my pregnancy. She allowed me to trust my gut leading up to a 41 week + 1 day labor while providing very knowledgeable guidance. My labor was an empowering experience that I will never forget, and I believe I owe that to the midwifery care that I received from Lydia and Guiding Hands.

Working with Lydia was amazing. I had a traumatic birthing time with my first child and had the same fears for my second. Lydia knew exactly what to say to ease my anxieties and was always so helpful at answering all my questions. Love all the staff too! Couldn’t have dreamed of a more perfect birth! Thank you Lydia!
