I worked with Claire for overnight postpartum support starting when my son was a couple months old and struggling with colic / reflux issues. We continued to work with her for support as needed in the months that followed. She gave us incredible, valuable guidance throughout the 4 month sleep regression: She helped us to establish a bedtime routine, a feeding schedule, and an overall better sleeping environment for our little one. She also went above and beyond to support me personally when I struggled with postpartum depression and anxiety. She was compassionate and non-judgemental, and she always brought a warm and positive energy to our home. She helped me to navigate my insecurities as a new mom with complete understanding, and was a lifeline to me during a moment of crisis. She cared deeply for our son and always engaged him in developmental activities during daytime support. When Claire supported us overnight, we awoke rested to a home that felt completely refreshed (honestly, it was in better shape than before). I would absolutely recommend Claire as a postpartum doula–she’s an incredible mama and human!

From the moment Claire stepped into our home, she brought an aura of calmness and confidence that was both comforting and reassuring during the vulnerable period of postpartum recovery. Her extensive knowledge on postpartum care was evident in every piece of advice, every technique she shared, and in the way she tailored her support to meet my specific needs and concerns. Claire demonstrated a remarkable ability to provide not just physical support, but emotional and psychological support as well. She was always there to listen, to encourage, and to validate my feelings, making the postpartum journey far less daunting. Her tips on baby care, breastfeeding, and self-care were invaluable, and her hands-on help allowed me to recover with the peace of mind that both my baby and I were in good hands.

What sets Claire apart is not just her professional expertise, but her genuine care and empathy. She has a special way of making you feel seen, heard, and supported. Her presence was a constant reminder that I was not alone in this journey and that it was okay to seek help and take time for my recovery. I am deeply grateful for the role Claire played during one of the most challenging yet beautiful times of my life. For anyone considering a postpartum doula, I cannot recommend Claire highly enough. Her guidance and support have left a lasting impact on our family, and we are so much better for having her with us during the postpartum period.
