Erin was great to work with! She came in and immediately provided community resources and support above and beyond what I would expect to be the standard! I highly recommend her if you are looking for support with a new baby!

Before this pregnancy, I didn't even realize there was such a thing as a "post-partum doula". I'm so glad I now know!  Erin was a terrific support. She checked in often to see how I was doing throughout the pregnancy and after delivery. Simple, quick texts were exactly my speed and what I needed post-birth during the crazy newborn stage. Erin's pre-delivery meeting really helped us think about some topics I hadn't considered in detail before birth such as how/when to ask for support, what our plan for visitors was, who we could/should reach out to in different scenarios and how my husband and I could plan to stay on the same page when things got especially stressful (hello sleep deprevation!).  

After baby's arrival, Erin was a lifesaver when she came over to help with baby so that I could focus a bit more on my toddler. Somehow she took great care of my witching-hour newborn, did the dishes, and tidied up for me all at the same time!  She was professional, knowledgeable, and non-judgemental.  If you are looking for an extra set of MUCH needed hands, I would highly recommend Erin.
