I contacted Lisa at 4:17am when my twin girls were one month old out of sheer desperation for help with overnights. My husband and I, first time parents, couldn't remember the last time we had slept and it was taking a toll on us mentally. Lisa was quick to respond and set up any available times she could to help us, and boy did she help us! She came out overnight and watched our girls while we finally got to sleep and it made such a difference for us (we could function as humans again!). Not only did she watch our girls for us, she even did some light cleaning while the girls were sleeping which was amazing since we didn't have the time to do that with twins to take care of. Any night that Lisa or any of the doulas on her team came out, my husband and I looked forward to those nights like they were Christmas since we could get some real sleep! Knowing that there was someone who cared for our babies while we could recharge for the next day was the best. I honestly don't know how we would have made it through those first few months without Lisa and her team!

I had a very difficult pregnancy and complicated delivery and post-partum recovery. Lisa helped taking care of the baby at night and sometimes in the day including her feeding, changing, putting her down for sleep. She is kind and caring to our baby and also helped me and my husband go through this difficult time. She maintained cleanliness, wore mask, maintained safe sleep and good hygiene for the baby. She carried herself professionally, well trained and as an experienced doula while taking care of my daughter.
She also helped around the house in laundry, cleaning and sanitizing kitchen, helped with dishes etc, which immensely helped us and allowed me to rest as needed. She just considered our home like her own to keep it clean and organized, she picked up any task that needed to be taken care of. These were great help considering our situation.
She also helped in sharing my post-partum difficulties with her and provided emotional support. She also took me and my daughter to the hospital for doctor's appointments while taking care of the baby.
She is always eager to help. Her team is extremely efficient and kind natured. We liked each team member as our doula. My daughter loved Lisa and everyone in her team. She is really good in choosing and training people as doula. We knew if Lisa is sending someone, she must be great, and we can trust that person.
She was always easy to work with, she just bonded with our family. I think she is a great post-partum doula and infant care specialist. We highly recommend her and her team.

Where to start...Lisa was an incredible blessing to our family. Our initial impression of Lisa was that of an experienced mother and doula, with years of knowledge regarding newborns. Knowing we had her in our corner made us feel very reassured and at ease leading up to the birth of our baby. After our daughter was born, we got to see who Lisa really was, and what a special gift she has with babies. Her gentleness, calmness, and willing to take initiative was apparent from day one, and allowed us to sleep peacefully knowing our daughter was being cared for so lovingly. She was very receptive to our opinions and choices, and always put our families needs first. We can't recommend her enough, she was and continues to be a special person in our lives.
Thank you Lisa!
God bless,
Toby and Courtney

My daughter’s premature twins were delivered via c-section during Covid. The adjustment at home was challenging, and we were exhausted. Securing Lisa’s doula services for my daughter and granddaughters was the best decision that I made during that time. Lisa came in, talked us down off the cliff, gave my daughter helpful advice on how to move forward with such things as breastfeeding, etc., and stayed through the night providing my daughter an opportunity to obtain much-needed sleep. This helped stabilize my daughter and her babies. The twins are six months old, now, and we sometimes still hire Lisa. I highly suggest putting Lisa’s service on the baby gift registry!

Lisa has been an absolute delight to work with. She takes such good care of my baby and makes my husband and I feel like a family member is caring for our little one. She is flexible and accommodating. The only thing that makes a well cared for baby better is getting taken care of as new parents. Lisa does both with compassion and sincerity. We look forward to having her back!

Lisa takes care of moms! Lisa first started working with our family when our baby was 2 months old. Our baby was born early and underweight, and we had some feeding difficulties in the beginning. From the time Lisa first walked in the door, I immediately felt at ease. She always knew right where and how to jump in, and made life as a new mom easier and less worriesome. Our little guy is now a robust, strong kid, and Lisa was a big part of easing the transition to new motherhood. We continue to work together as a care provider and as a family friend!
