Everyone has said good things already.

Something I know that my DH valued was getting a student midwife and she was great. She came to our house several times and talked with DH about the birth process and answered lots of questions. It was really helpful to prepare us both, but DH especially as he was very worried about the birth process. He would not read before hand though, so she was my only source of info for him. She was also great at the hospital to give him support especially when things went awry. She stayed with him and DS for over 7 hours as I was stuck in recovery and then needed further surgery.
