Shaunda was a postpartum doula for us after my twin girls were born. She helped us mainly at night, which was so great for us to get some needed rest. She helped us organize an easy process for getting their bottles and formula prepared for the day, which was so so helpful early on. She had great advice for us when we asked for her input and also connected me with another twin mom when I needed support. Shaunda was really great to help us through those first weeks with our twins, and we were and are very grateful for her.

Shaunda was very helpful and good support. I was from out of town and my water broke in NC. She called me to introduce herself over the phone And if I needed anything don't hesitate to give her a call no matter what time it is. Unexpectedly the babies were coming I called her at 6am she was to me no later than 30min. She set with me and made sure I was good. I will give her 100 stars. I will definitely recommend her! My family was 5hrs away. She made my comfortable.
