Post a testimonial for Cammie Jenkins
11/1/2024
A friend recommended Cammie when I expressed how stressed I was to return to work (my 4 month old was still waking multiple times a night). Cammie walked me through her background on the phone, immediately put me at ease when she arrived and provided both me and baby comfort during my first two weeks back. Knowing I could count on her to be there allowed me to manage a couple of late nights on work in between. I only regret not meeting her sooner during early PP!

We had an absolute pleasure working with Cammie! We had her come twice a week for 4 weeks starting at the second week of our baby being born. She was always very punctual and adapted to our preferences as well as using our app to update all feedings, diaper changes and sleeping schedules. She provided great advice for any potential changes and or anything she noticed that could benefit our babies schedule or feeding routine as well as provided techniques and advice for how to continue our babies routine to get the longest sleep stretches during the night. We felt very at ease and trusted Cammie provided the best care for our little one. Would highly recommend her!

We learned about Cammie from friends, and are so grateful that they helped us find her. Cammie is so knowledgeable and gifted with babies. She started working with us when our son was 1 week old, and immediately started helping him gain weight, sleep better, and helped us with tips big and small. With Cammie's help we learned things like how to properly swaddle and how to get a sleepy baby to burb. She was always very patient and listened to all my random questions when she arrived at night before I went off to bed. Cammie is such a calming presence for both new parents and babies (our cat loved her too)! With Cammie's help our son is eating well, generally sticking to his schedule, and sleeping well at night. We cannot recommend Cammie more!

Cammie has been an incredible resource for us. We were do fortunate to find her a few weeks after our first son was born and after a couple of nights found ourselves asking her for any night she had available. We worked with a handful of doulas before we found Cammie and she is far and away the best. She has an incredible gift with babies and new mothers. When we found out we were pregnant with our second son, she was the first call that we made, literally. She knew before any family or friends. If you're considering post-partum doulas, look no further. We have recommended Cammie to all of our friends and every one of them feels the same way.

Cammie was truly a blessing. As first time parents, we are still learning. she was extremely helpful and gave us several relevant advices to better take care of our baby. Our baby is fussy and she was wonderful in calming him down. We would love to have her back to take care of the baby.

We could not be more thankful for- or recommend a better night nurse than Cammie. Aside from her professionalisn and wealth of knowledge on all things newborn, Cammie always showed up with a smile on her face and a calming presence that made us feel instantly at ease. No matter how stressful the day or how tired we were- we could breathe a sigh of relief when Cammie walked through the door promptly at 10pm. Within 8 weeks, she helped sleep train our baby so he was waking once at night and making it until 7am! She provided helpful tips and offered us guidance whenever we asked from bottle nipple sizes to swaddles to diapers to gas remedies- she had all the answers. Cammie was also accommodating on multiple occasions when we needed to shift our days or times to provide extra coverage. Cammie is the absolute best!

I worked with Cammie for about 5 weeks after my daughter was born, starting on my first night home from the hospital. It's hard to imagine trusting anyone with your newborn, but Cammie exuded warmth and confidence that put me at ease from the start. She was great with the baby overnight, following her cues and working carefully over time to put her on a schedule, and I particularly appreciated Cammie's help in making sure baby had a good night's sleep despite persistent newborn congestion. She regularly checked in on me and my recovery, which I much appreciated since I encountered a few unexpected bumps in the road after coming home from the hospital. I also really benefitted from her tips as I started to shift to pumping/bottle-feeding. I enjoyed getting to know Cammie over the five weeks we had together, and I am so thankful for her thoughtful and expert care of my baby so I could get some much needed sleep. Would love to work with her again if I have another baby! Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Cammie Jenkins. Cammie is a professional, knowledgeable, and skilled doula, and I cannot thank her enough for helping me after the birth of each of my two children. Cammie’s quiet confidence and expertise helped me feel comfortable in my breastfeeding journey each time and she skillfully answered all of my questions. With my first born in 2021, I was very anxious about his jaundice and, in the two weeks Cammie was with us, she helped him get on a consistent feeding and sleep schedule, which we were able to successfully continue. My second born was three weeks early and tiny, and unfortunately had her first cold at 3 weeks old. I had great confidence in Cammie’s ability to work with my daughter to get her on a consistent feeding schedule that promoted healthy growth and recovery. I also desperately needed the rest to recover from preeclampsia and felt so comfortable with Cammie caring for my newborn while I slept. Cammie is so wonderful. All of my friends now call Cammie as soon as they find out they are pregnant!

Cammie was an enormous help with our second child. She started helping us at nights during the first week we were home from the hospital and gave us the gift of much needed rest. She is very kind, patient, and clearly has a way with babies. She was always on time and it felt like we worked as a real team - she brings experience and knowledge while also accommodating what we felt comfortable with as parents. She was also very considerate of my recovery postpartum. If we have more children, we will be calling on Cammie again!

Cammie was a great help with my two week old daughter at night! She has a very calming presence and the baby slept better with her there. Highly recommend!
5/4/2023
We really loved working with Cammie and would highly recommend her! We appreciated her patience and truly caring nature. She always asked about how I was doing as well as the baby and had great suggestions to help baby sleep better at night. She was also very professional and always on time and prompt in returning messages. We are going to miss working with her and will always think of her when I look back on my postpartum recovery. Thanks so much Cammie!!

Cammie has been wonderful for us! She has been helping us with overnight care for our baby. She is punctual, polite, and very respectful. She genuinely cares about our little girl and has been helpful with her advice. We definitely recommend Cammie!

When my baby arrived three weeks before her due date, Cammie was available on short notice to fill in for my previously scheduled overnight care arrangements, which we were so grateful for! We worked with Cammie a few nights per week for two weeks. She was very professional, caring, always on time, and she was extremely helpful in taking care of the baby overnight (including bottle feedings every three hours and helping the baby fall back asleep). As a new mom, she was able to show me how to properly swaddle the baby. I would highly recommend Cammie!
11/6/2022
Our family loved working with Cammie! Cammie is very experienced and she helped take care of our newborn (who was a late preemie born at 36w+3) at night. As first time parents, we were nervous and timid about taking care of our little one, but Cammie was very patient and supportive! She answered all our questions and provided guidance on feeding, sleeping, swaddling, bathing and more! In particular, she helped us establish a feeding and sleeping routine for our baby girl which was instrumental in helping her overcome jaundice!
Cammie’s care and knowledge has been absolutely invaluable to us as first time parents and we highly recommend her!
7/21/2022
Cammie was amazing for our baby and family. She is a thoughtful professional who gave us immense support and advice. She made sure we great nights of sleep and so did our baby. She is an amazing doula and we are so glad we matched with her.

Cammie served as a nightcare specialist for us for three nights while out regular person was out. She was great to work with: cimmuncative, detail-oriented and great at following our schedule. She filled in seamlessly and her time went off without a hitch. Would reocmmend her!
5/21/2022
Cammie was a huge help the first few weeks of our newborn's life. As first time parents we were overwhelmed and Cammie gave us some peace of mind caring for our daughter!
5/15/2022
Cammie provided overnight care for our 6-week-old daughter for one week. She helped with bottle feeding, washing bottles and pump parts, and soothing our little one when she was fussy. She immediately picked up on the system we use to record what our baby ate, and diapers, and was overall highly competent and pleasant to have around. The space was always left very tidy in the morning. She gave us much needed rest during a difficult transition. I'd certainly recommend Cammie for night nanny services!
4/3/2022
We were SO grateful for Cammie's help during the first 8 weeks with our newborn. My husband and I were so exhausted after having our first baby, so when baby #2 was on the way we knew we needed some overnight help. Having a few nights of good sleep each week while she cared for our daughter made all of the difference in the world! We trusted Cammie completely with our newborn - she is professional, reliable, kind, and a calming presence. We even requested a few extra weeks of visits from her because we weren't ready to give up those restful nights. I couldn't recommend her more strongly - she's the best!
4/22/2021
Cammie took care of our little boy the first few weeks at night so we could get some rest. She was great to work with and took great care of him! She documented his schedule at night so we were in the loop on when he had a bottle, needed a diaper change, etc. She was great at answering any questions that came up too since this was our first time as parents. Thank you!
7/28/2020
Cammie was incredible--my husband and I couldn't recommend her more! She was extremely courteous and just such a huge help to us as first time parents. We were always excited for "Cammie nights" as we started calling them since we knew we'd get some much needed sleep. She was great with our newborn daughter and also provided much needed feeding tips and answered any questions we had. We will 100% hire her for any future children!

Cammie helped us for several nights following the birth of our daughter including the night she came home from the hospital. Cammie has such a calming comforting presence she was incredibly helpful and we immediately felt comfortable with her and having her care for our daughter through the night. It is clear that she has a lot of knowledge in this area and provided helpful information to us. It is also clear that she loves caring for infants and was lovely caring for our daughter. we would recommend her without reservation!
3/10/2020
We really enjoyed having Cammie here to help with our newest addition. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and calming, and seamlessly came into our home without disruption. We look forward to having her again.
2/17/2020
Cammie was the most calming force, which is what we needed when you bring home a new baby!! She was so helpful, gave us advise when we needed it, and our baby loved her. It was so great to be able to sleep when she came too. We miss her!! Worth every penny for a newborn.

I had a somewhat difficult labor with my second baby, and I knew I needed and wanted someone to assist me through the nights during the first couple of months when I got home from the hospital. Specifically, I was looking for someone to provide "awake care" and who would stay up and watch my swaddled newborn so that I could fully rest in between nursing throughout the night without having to worry. Cammie was that person.
From the beginning, Cammie was professional and deeply caring. Having her with me through the nights, changing the baby's diapers, doing the laundry, waking me to nurse the baby, was so helpful and reassuring.
Based on my personal experience with Cammie, having her overnight at my home over the course of a few months (as well as the occasional care she continues to provide my family), I would definitely recommend her services to other mothers and families.

Cammie was incredible. She was always professional, on time, supportive, and friendly. As first-time parents, we had no idea what we were doing and Cammie answered all of our questions and taught us so much about breastfeeding, diaper changes, sleep, bottles, and more. We were able to get much needed sleep as we totally and completely trusted her to provide excellent care for our son. In addition to caring for our son, she was so helpful in doing his laundry and washing/sterilizing his bottles. We would not have survived without Cammie’s help and cannot recommend her services highly enough!
10/9/2019
Cammie is beyond excellent. She was a night nurse for my son when he was a newborn and was always comforting and professional. Cammie has a wealth of knowledge that was very helpful because my husband and I were first time parents who were excited to get guidance and advice on sleeping techniques. I would highly recommend using Cammie and felt very comfortable having her care for my son.

My husband, 6 week old daughter, and I were visiting DC for the week and at the same time, our daughter was going through a growth spurt and struggling with acid reflux that had just started to get worse. Cammie was absolutely incredible and saved us from total sleep deprivation during that week! From the moment we met her, she made us feel safe and we trusted her with our sweet baby girl. She took amazing care of our daughter who was waking up very frequently and was uncomfrotable due to the reflux. She made some suggestions as well that helped sooo much and luckily now our baby sleeps through the night :). We are not sure what we would have done without her that week.

Cammie was wonderful with my twins!
5/17/2019
Cammie served as a night doula for me while my husband was away. She was very professional and treated our baby with the utmost care. We felt very comfortable to have her in our home and would hire her again!
2/11/2019
Excellent experience. She has worked with us and our baby since 2 months of age.
Gave us great guidance on helping our baby sleep, sleep patterns and how to help her get a schedule. As new parents we highly recommend her.
She has helped us so much.
2/10/2019
We’ve been very fortunate to have Cammie with us for the first couple of months of our son’s life. Cammie is an expert on sleep and is the utmost professional. She is flexible, adapting to the specific needs of our son and is attentive to details to his care routine, often providing us with recommendations. Our son was born with a breathing issue, so sleep and feedings haven’t been the easiest. We are very glad to have Cammie to help us.
1/22/2019
My husband and I were in a bind as we were both feeling under the weather and needed rest. Cammie was able to come help us with our five month old overnight. He had been waking frequently due to the 4 month sleep regression and we didn't have the energy to be up every hour or so helping him back to sleep. Cammie was wonderful and brought our son in when it was time to eat but otherwise watched him in the nursery. It was amazing! It gave us such peace of mind and let us catch up on some much needed sleep. Thank you so much!!
1/13/2019
Cammie helped my family as an overnight postpartum doula following the birth of my 3rd baby. She was a preemie and had reflux and generally was not a great sleeper. Cammie’s calm, confident, and relaxed manner put my baby at ease and she and I both benefited greatly from her support. Thank you Cammie for caring for our family during this time!
1/7/2019
Cammie was wonderful! I didn’t hear my baby cry once. Cammie offered to do laundry, wash dishes and make breakfast. Cammie was a great help. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone.
1/7/2019
Cammie is a patient and caring doula. She helped me very much by listening to my needs and helping me care for my daughter when I was physically unable to do so. She is always on time and is flexible if you need her to be. She is willing to help beyond caring for your child. For instance, while I nursed, she offered to assist with the dishes. I would recommend her services to anyone.
9/17/2018
Cammie has watched my twin granddaughters from a preemie age. She is very flexible and patient with them. She has also stepped up at the last minute to fill in to help us out. She follows their set schedule and routines, she asks questions in order to clarify information. We are very pleased with her and continue to use her services.
