We worked with Juliana for following the birth of our first child, and cannot sing her praises enough. From our first FaceTime, her warm and caring energy made me feel immediately at ease. She is an excellent communicator and extremely reliable, arriving at 10pm on the dot each and every night. I felt more than comfortable handing her my baby, knowing he was going to be getting the best possible care.

In addition to her genuine and palpable love for children, she also brings a tremendous amount of knowledge and insight to the table. She was proactive in making specific recommendations and minor adjustments. To help soothe our fussy and gassy baby, she suggested introducing a colic belt and changing the nipple size used, which resulted in immediate improvements to sleep. I never hesitated to text her questions day or night, all of which she was quick to reply. Juliana is a rare blend of professional competence and immense warmth, and we hope to work with her again for our second child. We love Juliana!

We had a great experience with Juju for 3 months with our second child. She was always on time and communicated very well. She exudes confidence, provides helpful perspective and also prioritizes the wellbeing of the mother in her advice and support. With this being our second, we were more comfortable with the newborn process but appreciated the importance of rest during the big transition. It was helpful knowing our son was in good hands while we focused on resting. Juju was particularly helpful when my husband started traveling for work again. I was so relieved to have the overnight help so I could be rested for my toddler in the mornings. Our family looks forward to keeping in touch with Juju for years to come!

Juliana was an absolute dream to work with. My husband and I instantly felt at ease after meeting with her. She made an effort to check in with me while at the end of my pregnancy which gave us a nice connection before having her in our home. As a first time mom, I was quite anxious leaving my baby is someone else’s hands but Juliana made me comfortable and built trust quickly. Not only was she immensely gentle and caring with our baby but she also would check in with me to make sure I was healing both physically and emotionally. She even offered to come during the day because she could see I needed a break. I honestly don’t know how we would have made it without Juliana. She did so much more than just care for our baby each night. She helped us battle colic, put us on a good routine, made sure our baby was gaining weight, and gave us so much advice along the way. During the hardest times I knew that I just had to make it until 10pm and Juliana would be there to save the day. My only regret is not booking Juliana for longer! I can’t recommend her enough and would 100% use her if we have another child.

We had a wonderful experience working with Juliana with our second baby. We didn't know about postpartum doulas with our first child so it was our first time with this type of support. It's a really intimate thing to have someone spend time in your home during the intense postpartum and newborn weeks, and Juliana made us feel very comfortable right away. She's communciative about the logistics, always on time, and generally just made the experience very easy for us - really lightened our load when we most needed support. In addition to feeling total peace of mind having her care for the baby at night so we could rest, it was incredibly useful to have her knowledge and deep experience working with newborns. Even though we have an older child, we forgot a lot of little things to watch for or to make routines easier, especially to make baby comfortable at night for better sleep. Juliana identified things in just a night or two that we might have taken days or weeks to figure out on our own through trial and error: ideal swaddling approach for him, probiotics to help with gas (her recommendations were consistent with our pediatrician's guidance), nursing and pumping tips, etc. We still follow the sleep routines that Juliana helped us establish and it's put our baby in a much healthier rhythm than we experienced with our first child. She was also just so loving with our baby. It's clear she finds a lot of joy working with newborns and that made it even easier to leave my little guy for the night - knowing he was in good hands with someone who was delighted to be with him.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Juliana as our night nurse for our baby, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. As new parents we were really nervous. Her warmth and professionalism instantly put us at ease. Juliana’s extensive knowledge and gentle approach were evident in the way she handled our baby, providing not only excellent care but also invaluable advice that helped us as new parents. 

Juliana was incredibly attentive and responsive to our baby’s needs, ensuring that nights were peaceful and restful for both our little one and us. Her dedication went above and beyond, and she brought a calm, nurturing presence into our home. Her expertise allowed us to get much-needed rest, knowing that our baby was in the best hands.

We wholeheartedly recommend Juliana to any family in need hof a night nurse. She truly made a significant positive impact on our lives during her time with us and we would work with her again with our next baby.

Juliana was our Post Partum Doula for 7 weeks. Asking Juliana to be our Doula was, without a doubt, the best decision and investment we made during our parenting/newborn journey.

This was our first baby and my husband and I do not have family nearby.  We were looking for someone knowledgable who could help us navigate this new and exciting, but nerve wracking stage.  Juliana exceeded all of our expectations. Not only was she incredibly knowledgable of newborn and baby care, but every night she came, she was warm, professional, beyond kind and patient.  

Juliana not only took impeccable care of our baby, but she constantly helped me navigate becoming a new mom; from lactation help to always checking in on my recovery and mental wellbeing.  Juliana became my go-to for all of it.  We would talk and catch up each night, but also texted very often.  She was always willing to answer any questions throughout the day. 

Juliana taught us so much about setting good habits with our baby around sleeping and eating.  She let us set the tone on how we wanted to care for our baby and then followed with a wealth of knowledge to help us reach our goals.  The first 7 weeks is not free of its challenges. Our baby had a pretty big gassy phase and Juliana had many recommendations that helped our baby feel more comfortable as well as reassured us about what was happening and what we could expect next. Even with our daughter's challenges, she was eating and sleeping very well, and very early on. I credit a lot of that to Juliana's help and guidance. 

Our 7 weeks with Juliana was an absolute game changer.  By the time they came to an end, I was so sad she had to leave because Juliana feels like family now.  We miss her constantly, but have her to thank for the confidence we now have as new parents.

Juliana has been out babysitter now for almost 2 years and we absolutely love her! She's been taking care of our older one once a week since he's 10months old and we couldn't have found a better person. She's such an open, warm and loving being and totally adores kids and they adore her. She's also very punctual and reliable and has a lot of knowledge when it comes to taking care of the little ones (we've been asking her for advice more than just a few times). When our second son was born, she was the only one we trusted to take care of him and she stayed with us for 2 months as our night doula. It was so worth it and we could rest at ease knowing that he was in the best of hands. Whomever kids she takes care of, they are very lucky indeed.

I am delighted to write this glowing review for the postpartum doula who worked with me for four nights from November to February. Juliana's expertise, compassion, and professionalism were truly remarkable and invaluable during this transitional time for my family.
From the moment she arrived each night, she put us at ease with her calm and confident demeanor. Her knowledge and experience were evident from the start.
Juliana's support during those sleepless nights was a game-changer. She expertly managed our newborn's needs, providing us with much-needed rest and guidance. Her tips and tricks made our lives easier and more manageable.
Beyond her practical support, her emotional support was also greatly appreciated. She listened to our concerns, provided reassurance, and offered encouragement when we needed it most.
Overall, we cannot recommend Juliana highly enough. We are truly grateful for her care and guidance.
