In the fall of 2021 my family and I had a wonderful experience with Hallie and Better Beginnings. When we found out we were expecting our third I knew I wanted to look into hiring a post partum doula. Having three children in three and a half years has taught me the value of asking for a hand when I need it. Joy was an incredible, caring, and helpful doula who stepped into our daily routines and life with a newborn with grace and kindness. I am still thinking of the delicious meals she made for us! After interviewing two other post partum doulas, I am so glad we went with and chose Better Beginnings.

We loved having the support of Hallie and her team. We felt like they took the time to get to know us and our needs and were incredibly accomodating while we got used to having a new baby at home. We used their night doula services and I highly, highly recommend them. We spaced out the package we got and had them come once every week and it was such a relief to know we were going to have a good night in those early days.

Hallie & her team were wonderful! We had trouble breastfeeding in the beginning and they were there for quick support and resources which prepared us and eventually led to a successful path to breastfeeding. The team was very accommodating to our changing needs and helped our postpartum time to be enjoyable, worry-free and gave us confidence with our daughter.

My husband & I had twin girls in April. They were preemies but luckily got to come home with us after a few days. Sara was our doula & she was incredible!!!  Her first day I was engorged because my milk supply came in with a vengeance. I was so uncomfortable & tried everything I knew to relieve the pressure. Sara had great tips & I was much better within a few hours. She was an excellent resource for lactation questions. She was always on time. Her presence is calming & I know my babies were well cared for! She gave me great tips of what to expect & reassured and empowered me along the way. I miss having her here!!! Having a postpartum doula was the best decision we made & I would highly recommend Sara to anyone looking :)
