Lauren Letsinger is an exceptional postpartum doula whose calming presence and unwavering support have been invaluable to our family during the postpartum period. From the moment she arrived, she made us feel completely at ease and provided us with the support and advice we needed to care for our newborn baby.

We appreciate that Lauren is an excellent communicator, letting us know when she'd be here, any upcoming adjustments to schedule, and offering advice. Another one of Lauren's strengths is her ability to offer resources on how to incorporate our newborn into our family with an older sibling. We were anxious about how to manage the needs of both of our children. Lauren provided us with practical tips and guidance that helped us easily navigate this transition. She also helped us with establishing breastfeeding in those early days when things are so raw, overwhelming, and new. 

But it wasn't just the advice that made Lauren's support so valuable. It was her unwavering patience as we adjusted to life as a family of four-- those late-night chats she had with my husband (while I was joyfully sleeping!). Her calming presence helped us navigate the anxieties and challenges of early second-time parenthood with confidence.

Add let's not forget the snacks! Lauren's attention to detail and thoughtfulness extended to the little things, like making surprising us with yummy treats here and there that lifted the heart. 

Finally, Lauren's exceptional care for our baby cannot be overstated. She took the time to get to know our baby's unique needs, personality, and preferences. We are so grateful to have had her in our lives during this special time.

Lauren helped me meet my family's needs during my Post Partum recovery. I am a single working mother and needed help with juggling my 2 children (ages 3 yrs old and 1 yr old), while I breastfed my newborn on demand and able to be off my feet to recover. She was on time, flexible with communications. She went above and beyond! She was patient with my 3 year old who was struggling with less attention and all the changes and she warmed up to my active 1 yr old son. I reccomend her for your family!
