Post a testimonial for Sarah MacKay

Sarah was a miracle during the postpartum transition period, making sure I was fed, rested, and comfortable with new baby. I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone during these first precious months. Xxx

Sarah helped me immensely in my initial days after the birth of my daughter.She is very resourceful and always knew where I wanted help with. She came to hospital as well and helped me to take shower after my C-section. She cooked a delicious and nutritious soup for me which lasted me for more than a week upon freezing. She also went for walk with me and encouraged me to walk after my surgery. She helped me in bathing my baby for the first week and helped me with laundry. I could not drive after the surgery for few days and she readily agreed to get some important things for us from the shops nearby. I am grateful to her for all the support she provided to me and my family.

Sarah was an incredible help to us after the birth of our second child. She not only provided advice and support with our newborn, she also provided invaluable help with our toddler who absolutely loves her!
She has the ability to anticipate exactly what is needed and step in to do it, like help out with holding the newborn, laundry, cooking, dishes, and making us snacks (I was always hungry because I was breastfeeding!)
She provided me support and resources for breastfeeding, and also looked up and provided resources for connecting with other parents, postpartum support resources etc.
Early on, she watched both of our children while my husband and I stepped out for a much needed coffee break which was very much appreciated. Another time, she cared for and entertained our toddler while we took our newborn to an appointment.
Sarah really went above and beyond, bringing delicious muffins and pancakes for us and our toddler. We felt so taken care of!
Sarah is knowledgeable, professional, friendly, empathetic and extremely capable overall. We cannot recommend her enough!

My husband, our new born and I had the gift of Sarah's expertise for eight weeks, when our daughter was one month old.
Sarah’s compassionate and accommodating nature as a Doula sets her apart from many other professionals in the field. She is incredibly resourceful, patient, tender and understanding. She takes the time to learn about the child in her care and the family’s wants and needs.
Sarah’s professionalism is second to none. She consistently brought forth a caring and positive attitude, allowing us as parents to feel at peace that our daughter was in very capable and safe hands. She was proactive in her planning, collaborative in organizing her schedule, and sought out the best community resources.
Sarah is a tremendous asset to this profession. Her capacity to go above and beyond in supporting the families who have the privilege to work with her is everything a dynamic Doula should be.

We are beyond thankful for all of the help and support that we have received from Sarah. Not only did she exceed our expectations, she had gone above and beyond for our family. As a first time mom, I didn't know where to begin. Sarah had taken all my questions and concerns with motherhood and walked me through everything, from resources and support groups to hands on help. I'd recommend Sarah to any family looking for a trusting, reliable and knowledgeable doula.
