Post a testimonial for Dani Hume - Certified Breastfeeding Specialist
11/24/2024
Dani was truly amazing! She helped me so much before and after my c-section. I could not have done it without her.
She provided multiple prenatal meetings before my birth which helped ease my anxiety about the whole process. She took the time to answer all my questions so I felt more informed, confident and ready to take on this new chapter of my life. As a first time mom, that was key. She is also a breastfeeding specialist and provided invaluable support initially right after my c-section and ongoing throughout my breastfeeding journey.
I highly recommend working with Dani for birth and postpartum. She is very experienced and passionate about her work and was there to support me every step of the way. So glad and thankful to have worked with her.

Dani supported our family for the first 3 months as we have adjusted to life as a family of 4! She helped catch up on laundry, sterilized bottles/pump parts, dishes, snuggled our little guy overnight, much needed sleep and provided emotional support!
We are so thankful for our time spent with her! ??

Had the ABSOLUTE pleasure of being supported by Dani during my Postpartum. We met through Calgary Doula Association "Speed Dating" event and thats when we first knew she was the one! Dani has such great resources to offer during your Pregnancy journey, not just Postpartum. She did Prenatal visits, which is such a great way to create a game plan and made us feel more prepared for when our little one came earthside. She is willing to answer any questions/doubts you may have, and if she doesn't have the answer herself she is willing to guide you to who does. From folding laundry, to prepping meals, to giving you some self care time - her humble personality makes her easy to talk to and great to connect with. Her readiness to be available sets her a part from most! Can't say enough good things about her! Won't hesitate to have her support us for future babies to come! Thank you for everything

Dani's support after the birth of my second baby has been phenomenal. She helped me in my recovery after the C-section. Right from helping me bathe after the surgery to helping my daughter bathe, she was always there for us. She also cooked yummy soup and sweet dish for us. She helped us in doing the laundry too. When it came to breastfeeding, I had some apprehensions about using the breast pump and I remember she was always there to listen to me and allowed me to make my own decision with ease. I am forever grateful to her.

Dani gave amazing support for me during my postpartum days as a first time mom! She provided overnight care for baby, food for our family, emotional and mental support for me, breastfeeding guidance, and a laugh or two! I couldn't have done it without her, and recommend her to everyone on their post partum journey!

Dani supported our family after the birth of our second child from March-June.
She has been with us literally since day one when she completed an overnight shift for us the day I gave birth. I was so thankful to have her watch over our son so I could rest. She was compassionate and understanding when I explained my anxieties connected to events from my first postpartum experience.
Her support shaped what has been an extremely positive postpartum experience (a complete 180 from what I went through 2 years ago when my first was born).
Dani was a huge help in so many ways (sibling support, baby care, laundry, organization, meal prep, allowing me to get in a nap, etc) and we so value the quality of care she provided to our family. She is compassionate, helpful and a total go getter. I'm thankful for her gentle reminders to take care of myself instead of cramming too many tasks into my days.
I would highly recommend Dani to anyone looking for postpartum support. We definitely plan on hiring Dani again in the future. She is everything and more we could have wished for in a doula.

I am so grateful to have met Dani and received support from her. I decided to seek out postpartum doula care as I was feeling a bit anxious about the transition from a family of 3 to a family of 4. She checked-in regularly and listened to my concerns with compassion. Dani provided me with amazing helpful resources and hands-on teaching with babywearing (which is something I struggled with before). She also spent some time with our newborn so I could give our older child some 1-on-1 attention. Our family really benefited from her wealth of knowledge and kindness. I highly recommend Nurturing Embrace!
