We can’t say enough good things about Anne-Marie! As parents of twins, having her come once a week for the overnight shift was truly a lifesaver for us, our Wednesdays quickly became the day we looked forward to most. It gave us a chance to rest and reset in the middle of the week, knowing our babies were in the safest, most caring hands.

We always felt completely at ease leaving our twins with her. Her calm presence and experience gave us so much peace of mind. She made every effort to make things as easy as possible on us, and we always woke up to clean bottles and baby accessories, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated touch

We are so grateful for the support, care, and kindness Anne-Marie brought into our home. We truly couldn’t have done it without her, and would recommend her in a heartbeat!

Anne Marie is a god send! She made my transition into motherhood so much easier and I am so grateful that my husband convinced me to use her services! She has such a warm and comforting personality, my baby loves her and she's got so much experience and knowledge. I have 100% confidence in her and would absolutely use her again if we have another baby.

We had the pleasure of working with Anne-Marie as our overnight doula, and she exceeded all our expectations. She was with us for 3 months postpartum. From the moment we met her, she was incredibly friendly, making us feel at ease right away, she came to our home a couple times prior to the birth to provide guidance and prep for the babies arrival.

She was great with the baby, allowing us to get rest overnight. She took on the responsibilities of changing and rocking our baby to sleep. We found that having her provided a smooth and quick transition for our little one into his nursery, she helped create a comfortable and familiar environment for him.

Not only was she wonderful with our baby, but she also helped with household tasks, like folding and putting away laundry. She was proactive in researching and sending us articles tailored to our needs, and her flexibility and easygoing nature made her a joy to work with—we always felt supported and never stressed about scheduling.

We are so grateful for her care and support during this special time. We highly recommend Anne-Marie to anyone looking for a compassionate and knowledgeable doula! If we were to do this over again, we would definitely be having Anne-Marie back!

Anne-Marie has been our doula for the last 6 months for our second child and has been an absolute pleasure to work with. Not only was she prompt, reliable and took great care of our son, but she also played a secondary role of brainstormer and therapist as we navigated the first few months of our son's life. From gas to sleep issues to getting that extra load of laundry done, she was immensely helpful to take some of the burden of being the mom of a newborn for even just a few hours. She was very flexible in working with our schedule which was very much appreciated and was even flexible in terms of when we switched from more nights to days. I would recommend Anne-Marie to anyone looking for help with their newborn.

Anne-Marie provided overnight services for my wife and I shortly after the birth of our first son. From the very start, Anne-Marie was incredibly kind, caring and respectful of our situation. She made sure to undersand our needs as parents, and most importantly, took the time to understand the specific needs of our baby. She also provided invaluable suggestions and advice (in a non-pushy way) throughout her time with us. And as a professional, Anne-Marie was extremely reliable and always on time, which was especially important to us given our need to catch up on sleep. We could not recommend Anne-Marie enough. Anne-Marie has since become a friend of the family and we love catching up with her in our spare time. If we have a second child, Anne-Marie will be our first call.

We are so thankful for Anne-Marie's assistance as first time parents. I had a board exam 2 weeks post-partum and knew that I needed as much help as possible. Anne-Marie helped during a critical time period involving 10 overnight shifts over the span of 2 weeks.  We found the help so beneficial we continued to have her come for overnight care for a few more weeks. It was clearly not her first rodeo and we knew our newborn was in very good hands. She was always professional, on time and understood all of the safety related to sleep, bottle/breast milk storage. She provided us with a wealth of knowledge as first time parents. We will always be grateful for her help and highly recommend!

I would absolutely recommend Anne-Marie for a postpartum doula. A huge bonus is Anne-Marie is an excellent RMT and I went to her for prenatal massage at her clinic prior to the birth which was a double win: I had a much needed massage and we got to build a relationship. After the birth, Anne-Marie made sure to block out time in her schedule for us, and was extremely flexible when we asked for any adjustments. When she did overnight visits, she would offer to stay the entire time we agreed upon, or offer to leave early if our baby was up at a time that wouldn't be conducive to getting more sleep. I thought this was very thoughtful and appreciated, given we were on a budget. At night she is calm and discreet. She has such a nice presence during those dimly lit hours. 
She made helpful suggestions about sleep and feeding, but does not overstep. She lets you and your family lead the way, and takes your cues with tact and skill. She is also extremely responsive and a great communicator, which I value highly. 

Thank you for all your support Anne-Marie!

I highly recommend Anne-Marie as a doula. We are a family with twins and she has truly been like a fairy godmother for us - guiding and empowering us and really helping us see the joy of being parents of twins. She is so warm and is very kind and really looked at our family dynamics and made excellent recommendations. She gave us excellent tips on sleep and our boys are now maximizing their sleep at their age. Thanks Anne-Marie! We are truly blessed to have you in our village!

Anne-Marie provided overnight care for our newborn baby starting from the day we came home from the hospital until our baby was 3 months old. Anne-Marie provided overnight care for our baby- 5 nights a week. From the moment we met Anne-Marie we knew that she would be a great fit for our family. Anne-Marie was so incredibly knowledgeable, very experienced with newborn care(bottle feeding baby, cleaning and sanitizing bottles, changing newborn diaper, responding to newborn cues as needed at night etc.). We also valued Anne-Marie's non judgemental attitude, Anne-Marie helped support my feeding choices to breastfeed, bottle feed, and pump. With Anne-Maries support we were able to sleep train our baby by the time he was 3 months old! Anne-Marie helped us create a scedhule and structure our day. Anne-Marie was so incredibly flexible, eager to help, and she consistently went above and beyond. Not only was Anne-Marie a caregiver for our baby but she was also like a therapist for me in those early days postpartum as I was transitioning to being a new mom (ie. supporting me with the baby blues) and she was also a guide for my husband as he was nervous learning how to care for our 7lb baby boy. My husband was so grateful for Anne-Marie as she coached him how to change a diaper, pace bottle feed etc.) We truly felt like she was apart of our family as she always wanted what was best for our baby. We were able to sleep peacefully knowing that Anne-Marie was providing exceptional care for our newborn baby. We highly recommend Anne-Marie for anybody that is looking for postpartum support. If my husband and I get lucky to have another baby in the future we will defintely be seeking postpartum doula support from Anne-Marie.

Anne-marie was fantastic! warm, kind, and extremely caring. She was on time, professional, and put us completely at ease from the start with her energy. She helped us establish a routine and traveled with us to support the transition for our babies. She gave us updates via text and shared notes which was a nice way to keep us informed on our twins' activities. When she didn’t have an answer to a question, she made sure to find the answer. She would also make trips to the store to stock up on items we were running out of.

I felt supported as a new mother and was very comfortable to leave my babies under her supervision. We could not have been happier! Highly recommend her!

We have been so happy to have found Anne-Marie as a post partum doula for our twin boys!  She's knowledgable, caring, and incredibly supportive as we've figured out how to survive in our new life as parents.  Even as our boys have grown bigger and a bit older, we've been so lucky to have Anne-Marie around for ongoing support.  We trust her completely with our little guys - and I think that's really the highest praise we can give.

Anne-Marie was our "baby fairy godmother". Between helping with overnights so we could get some critical sleep, to making meals and doing laundry to feeding, loving, and caring for our child, she helped us out so much. The reality is we could have muddled through it on our own, but our lives were just so much better because she was a part of it. Some days as new parents were so hard and we would count down the hours until she was coming because her presence gave us a chance to eat, shower, sleep, and take care of ourselves knowing that our baby was safe and well-cared for. Early parenthood is all-consuming, and you need time to take care of yourself so you are best able to take care of your baby. Anne-Marie gave us the break we needed so everyone was healthier and better off in the end. She is friendly, helpful, respectful, and communicative. It takes a village, and we are happy Anne-Marie has been a part of ours.

Anne-Marie provided us excellent support during a difficult post-partum period. Her presence was extremely reassuring, and our baby was safe and happy under her care. She is very professional, reliable, caring and trustworthy and always went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and situation. Highly recommend!

Anne-Marie is an amazing post partum doula with my family.  We really loved the care she has given us.  Just after baby came home I had complications and she came into our lives.  I had never heard of doulas prior to this.  Now I reccomend Anne-Marie to everyone.  She is so intuitive to our needs, she knew just what was needed without us even asking.  She was excellent with our toddler and our newborn baby.  I feel like her personality is perfectly matched to her profession, she is so calming and caring.  Her education in thsi field enhances her natural caregiving nature.  We have had Anne-Marie at our home again recently and it was like she never left.  She fits seamlessly in our family and everything just feels so much easier.  She is fabulous with both our 3 year old and our baby, which really helped my husband and I to relax and accept help.  Overall our experience was so fabulous I just wish I had known her sooner.

We had the joy of welcoming twins to our family on December 6th, 2018. After the first 6 weeks, my husband had to go back to work, and though we had a lot of family in town who was able to come over and help, I found myself still struggling with taking care of both babies, and my own needs, at the same time. 

Anne-Marie has been working with our family for nearly 3 months, offering a significant amount of support to the babies, and to me. She makes my life better. She is able to care for (feed, change, bath, play with, and put down for naps) both twins, while I take a much needed shower, or squeeze in a quick workout. She is amazing with the babies and they light up seeing her every day. 

Anne-Marie also helps me with light work around the house (laundry, dishwasher and bottle washing), and has accompanied me to numerous appointments. Having the extra set of hands of someone who knows exactly what needs to be done, and is able to care for my babies is amazing. 

I could not speak more fondly of the time Anne-Marie has spent with me and my twins in the ever-important 4th trimester (and beyond!) and honesty don't know how I would have managed without her. She is a truly kind person, and an amazing Doula.

A 'professional grandmother' and support for my husband and I during our birth and postpartum period. Anne Marie has a very friendly and gentle demeanor and knew what I needed without even being asked! Like providing comfort measures in the hospital, water or drinks during labour or badly needed rest and TLC once at home.

My husband thought that she was a great complement to our team during the whole process. We would not hesitate to recommend Anne-Marie for your birth and if you need a postpartum doula. We will certainly seek Anne-Marie's assistance again if we have another baby in the future.
