Sweet Beginnings Reviews: Hear Why Families Love Us Sweet Beginnings LLC

To be honest, this is the first time I write a review (I'm not good at expressing my feelings) but I couldn't let this experience go by without saying how wonderful my delivery was with the help of marvelys, from the first consultation we had I knew that he was in the right place, he is an extremely prepared person, with a lot of experience and dedication... he loves his work and that is reflected in each visit, he takes his time to clarify all your doubts and is available at any time for whatever you need .
I consider myself very lucky to have had her throughout my pregnancy and especially during the birth of my daughter, which was wonderful.
When my baby was born she noticed that my placenta looked somewhat abnormal, she knew exactly what to do, so she sent it to be analyzed by pathology to rule out any anomaly, fortunately in the end everything went well, 'but her experience and medical knowledge made me feel safe and in very good hands,at each prenatal visit I felt like I was talking to a very good friend.
I really am infinitely grateful for her great work, and her great heart, she is simply the best.

If you are a mother who is wanting to become empowered by a home birth experience,
I would look no further than Marve. She is simply the best at what she does. She is a gentle balance of everything. Not only is she an endless wealth of knowledge, but she has an entire library full of information in order to educate mothers about every aspect of their pregnancy. It's wonderful that she does not tell mothers WHAT to do (like a Dr. would) she simply provides you with information and allows the mother to make the best choice for her and her baby.

The thing I love most about her is her calm,and welcoming spirit that allowed for an incredibly peaceful and wonderful water birth at home. I love the fact that she is familiar with the "medical" side of things as well, having been a physician in the beginning phase in her life, and she can analyze and look at situations from both perspectives, offering a healthy balance of what might be truly necessary and also the fact that she takes the less invasive, hands off approach (unless you, the mother, say other wise). She is always available to answer any questions and it is such a relief knowing that her information is always true and consistent.
She is an incredible midwife, person and confidant whom I am thankful to call a friend. I joked with her about having to have another baby soon so that I can see her more often. Marve, I am forever grateful for your friendship and care. I will continue to refer everyone I meet to you because I know you will provide them with the best. You are the greatest :)

I wanted to take a natural approach to my pregnancy and childbirth, and was referred to Marvelys by a friend. After my consultation with Marve I knew she was the midwife for us! She is very kind, warm and welcoming, while always being extremely professional. Whenever we had questions she always had extremely knowledgeable answers. A lot of the times at our appointments she would give us information that would answer the questions we had before we even got a chance to ask them! She gave us the best care, and we always felt safe and confident under her supervision. I had an all natural home water birth just like I planned, and I couldn't imagine it without Marve at my side. She made me feel safe, secure and well cared for during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a midwife, or a home birth.

I cannot say enough about the high level of care I received with Marvelys. She was truly a blessing during this wonderful journey. My husband was very concerned about having a home birth, but Marvelys was incredibly patient and reassuring with each question, which allowed my husband to be at ease. Her dedication to her patients is demonstrated through her constant availability by phone or email, as well as, incredible thoroughness during appointments. She has a gentleness and respect for pregnancy and the birthing process, allowing nature the space and time to do what it should. Throughout our prenatal care she empowered us with unbiased knowledge and research regarding important decisions we had to face. Now as we have had our first baby through a successful home birth, the excellence in care continues postpartum. She goes above and beyond to make sure not only the baby thrives, but that the mother does as well. At just the right time, she provides a nurturing appointment for the mother only, which is something magical. I truly felt as if she were washing my feet -- her kindness and care brought me to tears (and not just because of sleep deprivation ;) ).

A patient of Marve's is truly a blessed patient. I would recommend her care without hesitation to an expecting mom.

Today I experienced a postpartum massage at Sweet Beginnings full of essential oils, peaceful music, cupping therapy, and a ceremonial closure. It was simply amazing. Words cannot explain the level of service Marvelys provides while under her care. Not only does she give it her all, I believe she goes above and beyond for the good of her clients.
When I think about Marvelys and my experience at Sweet Beginnings, I get emotional. I always knew, if I was to ever have kids, I would give birth at home. I knew that I wanted to give birth in the comfort of my own home and create a peaceful, holistic environment. However,I had no idea I would receive the level of care and love that accompanied my prenatal and birthing experience. Marvelys Lopez is a God sent and the work that she does is clearly her calling. After our initial consultation, we were impressed with the plethora of information she shared with us. You could clearly see her passion and how much she cared for women and their natural birthing experience. The prenatal care we received was more than we could ask for. We never felt rushed, as with other health providers, our appointments ran a minimum of an hour. Marvelys thoroughly answered any and all questions we had. In addition she always gave us our options backed with research for us to read and make decisions for ourselves. The Sweet Beginnings library is full of DVDs, books, CDs and more that touch on every pregnancy and birthing subject matter you could imagine. Marvelys stood by us when we experienced difficulties in our pregnancy, supporting us with her strength and love, recommending us to the best specialists in town. And we pulled through it together, as a team.

Marvelys had us write down and visualize our birth day, and when that day came our vision became reality. It was one of the most amazing, peaceful and loving days of our lives. Marvelys and her assistant Judith came to our home in the middle of the night like two angels prepared to serve. Our family was able to participate and we were all in tune and on one accord as we delivered our beautiful baby girl. It was such a loving experience, bonding with our baby as her umbilical cord pumped the last bit of blood from the placenta. It all now feels like a dream.

As I reflect from the time I found out I was pregnant to now; I am thankful for a healthy pregnancy, a healthy baby, a great husband, a supportive family, and a wonderful midwife, Marvelys. Her knowledge and wisdom accompanied with her nurturing and gentle spirit is hands down the best health care experience one could ask for.

Marve was so reassuring to my husband whom was not certain about all this home birth stuff, initially. I was nervous whether I could do it, as this was my first time pregnancy, but everything Marve did was empowering. Although the drive was far for us, I looked forward to my appointments with Marve. She took plenty time to discuss any concerns we had and the part where we checked on the fetus was always so gentle, special, and comfortable.

We had a surprise breech birth, (the baby moved in the last week)! Although it was a fast labor and the baby were to be born in the frank breech position, Marve was calm and confident, which helped me. I would recommend Marve over and over again.
