Courntey is an absolutely wonderful, caring doula. She provided us with several weeks of postpartum care during what felt like a very hard and chaotic transition in our lives. She arrived into our home with a grounding presence, was willing to tackle any task and went above and beyond in her communication. She even made me delicious snacks and was so patient with my sweet babes crying fits.  I am so grateful Courtney was able to step in and provide us with some much needed relief.

Courtney helped us out for almost three months after our baby girl was born. During this time, she essentially became part of our family. Not only did she help me recover; care for our little one; and entertain our four year old; she also made amazing meals for us! I don't know how we would have managed without her. I would wholeheartedly recommend her for all of your post partum needs.

I can't say enough wonderful things about our experience with Courtney! Courtney helped us so much during the early weeks with Lewis. She was attentive to Lewis' needs, and I learned so much from her in the process. She was also incredibly helpful around the house while Lewis napped. She was also very attentive to me and my post-partum journey. She was a great sounding board when I was feeling tired and overwhelmed, and I really appreciated her emotional support and expertise with the post-partum journey. I felt a natural comfort and ease having Courtney with us. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a nurturing, kind, responsive, and supportive doula. Thank you, Courtney!

We were so thankful for Courtney and all her support! She was so wonderful with our daughter. She was able to quickly assess the situation and provide what she needed (and even what I needed!). I trusted her and enjoyed her time at our home. Thank you so much, Courtney for helping us during a trying time.

Courtney was a massive help and great presence during our initial rollercoaster-ride as new parents. It was an abrupt start because we had not foreseen our need for help (of course), but we were lucky enough that she was able to connect with us, interview, and start working with us pretty quickly after our son was born.

We were having a rough time figuring out how to even manage ourselves at first as parents (even doing basic things we thought we knew how to do as adults seemed almost impossible). To top it off, I was nervous with worries about COVID safety and at having another person in our home, let alone the new baby no amount of preperation really prepared us for. Despite my worry, Courtney quickly helped to calm us, guide us and gently refocus us on what was important and what really needed to be done for our baby - and also for us. She both guided us as well as handled things we didn't want to deal with at times to give us a break. Courtney not only took care of our baby, she took care of us and made sure we took care of ourselves, and was always willing to help however she could. We were very lucky to have her experience and calm around us at this time --  and I believe the fact that she has her own little one gave her that extra bit of insight and understanding.

Courtney is communicative, reliable, thoughtful, kind, and really just genuinely cares. Sounds (and yeah, is) unoriginal, but will forever be grateful for the kindness and support Courtney provided us with throughout her time with us.

My family worked with Courtney after the birth of our second child, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her and how she supported us as we transitioned into a family of four. With a toddler and an infant our lives constantly felt like a state of triage, and Courtney was more than happy to help take on some of the load to help us until we had a handle on things.

Some days that meant she cared for the baby while we gave our toddler some much-needed dedicated time, and other days it meant that she prepped a week's worth of healthy and delicious meals for us. It ALWAYS meant that she helped us get through the seemingly endless mountain of laundry :)

When the baby had a hard time taking a bottle, she helped us come up with a plan and even spent a day at home with my husband helping him feed her while I disappeared with the older child. 

We cannot recommend her enough and are so grateful to have had her as part of our postpartum journey!

We worked with Courtney for three weeks after the birth of our daughter, and her help was invaluable!  Courtney is kind, helpful and knowledgable, and she was great with our daughter.  It was wonderful to have someone in our home who I could trust to watch our newborn baby so I could get some rest (and take a shower!).  As a first time mom, lots of questions came up for me about taking care of a newborn, and Courtney was able to provide information and resources to answer those questions.  When she was in our home, Courtney provided support by listening/answering questions, taking care of the baby, preparing meals and folding laundry.  I am so thankful we decided to work with Courtney, and I would recommend her to any family looking for a Postpartum Doula.

Courtney helped our family with postpartum doula services in the first couple of weeks after we came home with our first born. Beyond the necessary traits of being knowledgeable and supportive, I was especially impressed with how Courtney went above and beyond to provide resources to help our family. When I asked a question about breastmilk storage, she thoroughly explained the answer and then followed up (unprompted) with links to helpful resources and printouts - so, so helpful! Courtney was kind, patient, and a joy to have in our home during an otherwise stressful time. I could not recommend her highly enough to another family!

Courtney was absolutely wonderful to have as a doula! I really valued having a few hours a week to step away from baby care, focus on some emails or a book, take a nap, or walk my dog. Courtney really went the extra mile- she made us some delicious granola, brought me an awesome book on breastfeeding, and even helped our baby get comfortable in a carrier. She came during a growth spurt that was really difficult for us, but, not only did Courtney help with our crying baby, she made us feel so much better about what was happening with our baby and how to handle it ourselves. We got through it! Finally, Courtney was super easy to talk to. I highly recommend!
