Nolwenn is a wonderful doula - kind, supportive, knowledgable & helpful for our whole family. She was amazing during the birth of our little boy, her coaching made labor much more manageable, less painful and quicker. I would highly recommend her services prenatal and postpartum.

Both my husband and I are far from our families, and as first-time parents, hiring a doula was a great decision. Nolwenn played a major role in supporting us as we prepared to welcome our baby boy, as well as during birth and postpartum. She is a very professional, knowledgeable, and reassuring person, and very present for the family she is supporting. Nolwenn helped us prepare, through conversations about the birth plans, our preferences, and wishes, always providing helpful advice or presenting options to us. It was a major shift for me as a mom-to-be, as I felt more educated and empowered. When the day came, I felt prepared, strong, and excited, thanks to Nolwenn. When we learned that the baby was breached a little late in the game, Nolwenn helped us find the resources and information to approach the situation, finding great providers (acupuncture, PT) specialized in perinatal care. Her support and reactivity in that very overwhelming situation were a game-changer! The baby eventually turned! During childbirth, Nolwenn was a great support for both my husband and me, through reassuring and motivating words, and massaging. After birth, I really enjoyed the postpartum support she provided, more specifically advice, discussing doubts and questions about newborn care, and future parenting.

My wife speaks French and I... try to speak French. We knew we wanted a bilingual doula just to make things a bit easier in the chaos of the impending moment. What we got when we hired Nolwenn was so much more. Incredibly knowledgeable, kind, patient, and relatable, Nolwenn either already had a wealth of resources to share with us or took the time to find detailed answers to our questions. As a first-time father, there were so many questions I hadn't even thought about (e.g., did I want to catch the baby? I don't know- did I??), and Nolwenn not only put these in my head but walked me through the different options. Moreover, she took the time to ask me about what I was worried about and how she could address my concerns. For those of you who, like me, thought a doula was primarily for the mother-to-be, let me tell you that Nolwenn is there for the couple and offers equal support to both partners. When our child arrived a few days earlier than planned, Nolwenn dropped everything and rushed (through traffic) to join us at the hospital. She made this whole process much more calm and comfortable for both my wife and I and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Nolwenn helped me take care of my twin newborn, both as a night and daytime doula. Not only she was caring and loving to the babies, but she was also an amazing support to me and my husband as first time parents — both emotionally and practically. She has deep knowledge of infants care and shared great advice to help with sleep, feeds, and development milestones. She was also helpful with breastfeeding. Hiring a doula in our first few weeks was the best investment to ramp up smoothly in our new parenting roles!

I’m so glad we had the chance to work with Nolwenn as our overnight postpartum doula. She visited us about ten nights in the first few weeks after our son was born and I’m not sure how we would have survived without her! The knowledge, calming energy, and support she brought to our home was invaluable. She was a wonderful companion to me during middle of the night feedings, and quickly whisked him away to help me maximize my sleep (I never heard a peep after they left the room). I especially appreciated the care with which she treated our little guy and the tips she showed us as she learned about his needs and preferences. She also made sure we felt empowered as parents to make our own decisions and followed our lead with a flexible philosophy. On top of it all, Nolwenn was extremely professional, going out of her way to find us backup care, showing up right on schedule, sending reminders, and connecting us to resources. I hope others are so lucky to benefit from her caring support!

I feel lucky that Nolwenn was there to support me for a few months. She provided a lot of insightful information and key takeaways to serenely welcome my baby. I truly enjoyed our kind conversations, which highlighted actionable advices and gave me the confidence I needed in my future role as a mother.
I encourage all moms or expecting moms to reach out to Nolwenn. She knows how to best support you along the way with a lot of kindness.
