Amanda Yohnke, a Maumee resident and mother of two, opened her own sonography studio called First Hello in August 2026. The studio offers 3D and 4D pregnancy ultrasounds, allowing families to get a detailed look at their unborn babies. Yohnke, who previously worked at another 3D ultrasound facility, aims to provide a warm and welcoming experience for her clients, with features like dim lighting and piano music to create a spa-like atmosphere.

Why it matters

Pregnancy ultrasounds help families connect with their unborn children, and Yohnke's studio offers a unique experience that goes beyond a typical doctor's office visit. The 3D and 4D imaging technology provides crisper images of the baby's face, which Yohnke says is 'the mystery of pregnancy' that many parents are eager to uncover.

The details

Yohnke opened First Hello after earning two associate degrees from Owens Community College in 2022, including one in diagnostic medical sonography. The studio offers a range of ultrasound packages, from a single 2D session for $40 to a $350 package with monthly visits. The most popular option is the 'Winging It' package, which starts at $60 and allows customers to customize their experience. Yohnke also offers a 'heartbeat animal' add-on, where a stuffed animal is given to the family with the baby's heartbeat recorded inside.
