Clarice was such a wonderful support for our family after our son was born. From the moment she arrived, she brought a calm, reassuring energy to our home and cared for our baby with so much love and confidence. She prepared delicious, healthy meals and snacks that made a huge difference in our day-to-day (you can’t go wrong with the granola bars!). We ended up extending our contract a couple of times because her support was so invaluable as we figured out life as a busy family of four. We couldn’t imagine those first months without her steady, caring presence, and we were especially grateful for her help when I had to travel and leave my son overnight for the first time. Clarice was always there to problem-solve — whether it was sleep, nursing, pumping, you name it — she supported us every step of the way. We’re so thankful for all she did for our family and truly can’t recommend her enough. We already miss her!

We had a 10+/10 experience with Clarice and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a sibling doula! My parents live about 4.5 hours away and we needed back-up care for our 19 month old daughter if I were to go into labor overnight and my parents couldn't get here fast enough to care for her while my husband and I were in the hospital. I am so glad we made this decision because, sure enough, contractions started at 10pm and we finally decided to go to the hospital around 4am. Clarice was quick to get to us in the wee hours of the morning and was there to care for our daughter when she woke up, making the morning routine as seamless as possible for her. She's the perfect blend of professional and a seasoned caregiver that instantly feels like family. She has a very warm and confident prescence (a mama and grandma herself), and our daughter immediately took to her. She gave us regular updates and pictures along the way, giving us peace of mind that our daughter was being well cared for (and having fun!) so we could just focus on deliery. We are so grateful for Clarice's services!! Thank you!!

As first time parents, Clarice met us with kindness, guidance and support. Not only did she provide education around wake windows, lactation/feeding, bathing and soothing, she demonstrated for us and observed us, all while offering soft suggestions and practical tips. She was also available outside of our scheduled times to field questions and check in. Clarice gave us meaningful coaching in our first month that we can now apply independently. She also makes a killer tiki masala and helped prepare meals for us - something delicious to enjoy during that busy newborn time.
We're grateful for her and the impact on our family.

Clarice is absolutely amazing! She worked with us for overnight postpartum doula services. She is warm, thoughtful, professional, and thorough. She went above and beyond to understand what I was looking for while we were getting ready to work together and was so on board with what I knew was right for me (like with my goals for nursing, etc.). She was so supportive while I was navigating what worked for me. Whenever I had questions, she gave thoughtful answers with references I could look over. She truly took the time to make sure I got the information I was looking for (for example, with weaning when switching to formula when the time was right for me). She was there for me as much as for my daughter and truly cared for both of us. My greatest concern was for my daughter's care and she was so nurturing to her. I know the warm presence Clarice was for her gwill stay with my daughter always. I cannot recommend her enough. It is such an anxiety-inducing thing to entrust your child's care to someone, but I was completely at ease with Clarice. You and your child are in the best of hands with her!! She is a gem of a human and was a bright spot in my postpartum experience.

Hi everyone, my name is Lola . I am so grateful that I known Clarice and she help me a lot . I have twins baby this year. She is hard working person and very professional. We would love to have her to take care of our babies. If I have a chance to give her point, I would give her 10/10. Ours babies are really enjoy with her.

Clarice was a fantastic support for me as a single mom with a second baby at home.  She was incredibly flexible as my needs changed from what we initially discussed.  Her meals were nourishing and delicious and I felt comforted in her presence.  Do yourself a favor and hire Clarice!

I cannot imagine my postpartum time without Clarice. My husband and I hired her to help out after the birth of our second child. I had no idea how much I would come to appreciate her presence. The first few weeks of my son's life were very difficult for us, as we were dealing with a combination of illness, injury, and postpartum anxiety. Clarice was there every step of the way providing calm, confident support--friendly conversations, gentle suggestions, kind words, delicious meals, keeping up with the laundry, holding my baby so I could shower or sleep, riding along with us to appointments, and more. Clarice is caring, professional, well-connected, and knowledgeable. I cannot recommend her enough!

Clarice is very friendly and caring mothers and their families. I used her sibling doula service as we don't have our family living near by, and we didn't know what to do with my 2-year-old daughter when I went into labor. She set up play time with her and me beforehand so that we could get to know her, and my daughter would be comfortable while I was gone. Clarice is very playful with my daughter, and knows well how to deal with toddler. My daughter has strong separation anxiety, and she doesn't like playing with others, but not with her. I ended up staying at the hospital that wasn't our original plan, but Clarice took a good care of my daughter. My husband and I are so happy to hire her. My daughter still talks about how much fun she had with Clarice and misses her. We didn't use her postpartum doula service, but I'd love to do that next time if we had another. Highly recommended!

First, hiring a PP Doula, was a total game changer, I wish I would've known this was a thing for our first. Second, Clarice, is the mother-in-law everyone wishes they had! She was so kind and thoughtful, and quick to get things done. She was caring and gentle with our sweet baby girl. She helped with laundry, tidying up shared living spaces, dishes, and even helped with meal prep. I loved when she would bring new snack recipes for me to try! She was often reminding me to take care of myself: eat, stay hydrated, shower, nap, really listening to my body. If I was nursing, she would be near and engage in active conversation with me, which was wonderful. Really helped make those frist few weeks not seem so isolating. 

If we ever have another kiddo, we would hire, Clarice, again without hesitation!
