We had the pleasure of working with Marisol as our postpartum doula for six nights during our babys first two weeks, and we couldnt be more grateful for her support. Thanks to her, we were able to get much-needed rest, which made all the difference in those early days. She provided invaluable advice when our baby wasnt eating well and was always there to answer our many (many!) questions, no matter how small.

Marisol went above and beyond from the start- she checked in with us regularly, did a house visit before the birth to help us prepare, and provided daily check-ins while she was with us postpartum. Her care and dedication truly made our transition into parenthood smoother and more reassuring.

We will be highly recommending Marisol to all our friends; her kindness, knowledge, and support are unmatched!

When we were in desperate need of more support during the nights, Marisol came highly recommended and turned out to be an great part of our family from September to December. Both my wife and I were returning to work, and we were really in need for quality sleep to manage the transition back. Marisol not only provided that but did so with a great level of care and expertise.

Marisol's experience with infants was clear from the start. Our daughter was soothed quickly whenever she stirred, which meant nights were peaceful for us. Marisol was also able to feed our daughter consistently well even though we had feeding difficulties during the day (which gave us even more peace of mind).

Beyond just caregiving, Marisol was a wealth of knowledge. We had numerous insightful discussions about baby care, from managing sickness and congestion to transitioning our daughter to a sleep sack for safer sleep, to a little bit of sleep training tips. Her observations were also always on point, like noticing our daughter's readiness to hold her bottle or dry patches on her skin needing attention.

Throughout our time with Marisol, she was incredibly collaborative, always respecting our wishes on how our daughter should be cared for, yet she was never shy about sharing helpful advice. Marisol was gentle, attentive, and clearly loved by our daughter, who was always happy during their morning times together.

We also sought Marisol's advice on broader childcare issues like choosing a day nanny and understanding our daughter's developmental milestones, which helped guide us in the right directions to prepare for the upcoming months.

We can't thank Marisol enough for her dedication and love towards our daughter. She made our transition back to work and into sleep training smooth and supportive.

Marisol is an exceptional doula! She is so caring, calming and informative - it is a blessing to have her support during such a challenging time bringing a baby into the family. She helped us with night time care from when our baby was 1 week old to 4 months and was the first to identify and advise us on symptoms of reflux given her training as nurse and extensive experience with many babies. Beyond providing safe, supportive care for our baby, she checked in to support us as sleep deprived parents and help us problem solve aspects of feeding and sleep that were eluding us. We are so very grateful that Marisol came into our life at such a critical time and would recommend her highly to any family looking for doula care!
