I simply cannot praise Colleen's postpartum services enough. As first-time parents, the challenges of welcoming a newborn seemed overwhelming, but Colleen's support turned this daunting journey into a joyous experience.

From the moment she entered our lives, Colleen became an essential pillar of our family. She offered comfort and care to our baby girl, Haley, but her support extended to my wife, Lin, and myself as well. Her knowledge, expertise, and calming presence were a guiding light during the often chaotic first weeks after Haley's birth.

Colleen equipped us with the tools to care for Haley with confidence and compassion. Her guidance was always timely, practical, and seemed to anticipate our needs before we could even articulate them ourselves.

Her commitment didn't end with the scheduled support. She made it clear that she was just a call away, a testament to her dedication and passion for her work. I wholeheartedly recommend Colleen's services to any family navigating their postpartum journey. Her guidance is priceless.

We want to express our deepest gratitude for all the support Colleen provided during this special time in our lives. Thank you for smoothing our transition into parenthood and infusing it with joy.

Thank you, Colleen. We couldn't have done this without you.

Colleen brought a sense of calm to our home when we welcomed our second child. After a stressful first week home from the hospital, we spoke to Colleen and she found time in her schedule the next day to come. She shared so much of her wisdom, from best ways to burp a newborn to how to help our toddler adjust to his new baby sister. We all felt more comfortable with our new family structure thanks to Colleen and I was able to get some much needed rest during her visits. We wish we'd known about her when we brought our son home from the hospital!

It was such a wonderful experience having Colleen as our doula. We are so thankful for her support and knowledge. Half way through my pregnancy, I was unsure of what a doula did and whether or not I even needed one. I had given birth before but my gut told me to hire a doula this time. It was the best decision I could have made for my family. Colleen provides a variety of services, including hanging out with my older one, taking care of the newborn, helping with cleaning breast pump, laundry, etc...which really was a huge relief for us. She also provided me tons of usefel tricks to comfort the baby when she's fuzzy. 

You will not go wrong with choosing Colleen to be your doula. Don't hesitate to contact her for more information.

My husband and I had an amazing experience working with Colleen as our postpartum doula as we welcomed our second child home. Colleen was incredibly supportive with both of my children, and helped our family coordinate moving into a new house during our time together! I couldn't recommend A Golden Birth postpartum doula services and Colleen more!

I cannot say enough great things about postpartum doula Colleen at A Golden Birth. Colleen was paramount to my husband’s and I transition to becoming new parents joining us from the day we brought our baby boy home. She also played a key role in my hard but successful journey to exclusive breastfeeding with her lactation services. I could immediately tell Colleen is passionate about her work and truly enjoys helping families. My baby boy loved her and her calming spirit was always a warm welcome to our family. She was also flexible working around our baby's doctor appointments. She was helpful in allowing my husband and I to rest, answered my many questions as an anxious new mom, and made delicious lactation cookies!  Colleen also helped me identify my postpartum preeclampsia leading to me being hospitalized and effectively saving my life. I could not have asked for a better postpartum doula.

Colleen was amazing! She taught me so much about breastfeeding, sleep and early newborn care. And she was incredibly helpful at home - finding things to do that I didn't even know I could ask for - laundry, cleaning up the kitchen, lactation cookies... She was an angel of support those early weeks. She was so sweet and skillful with our son - I learned a lot just watching how she cared for him. 

We wish we could keep working with her as a nanny! and we are happy that she can share her expertise, wisdom and kindness with more families!

Colleen was amazing, I’m so thankful she was able to help my husband and I as we navigated the shift to being new parents. She taught us so much about taking care of our newborn, offering tips and making recommendations that helped us with our little one. Having that extra support in the early newborn stage made a world of difference; I knew if I had a question or needed anything, Colleen would be there to help. And best of all, she gave us the gift sleep and took care of our baby so we could nap!
