Post a testimonial for Rachel Fenty
8/7/2024
We have a wonderful experience working with Rachel as our postpartum doula after our daughter was born. Rachel helped us for both day and night shifts and I have nothing but positive things to say. We felt comfortable with her from the start, her knowledge working with newborns was evident and we immediately felt our daughter was getting quality care. On a personal level, we always enjoyed chatting with Rachel at the start of each shift and even our toddler and our dog were excited when she would arrive. I highly recommend Rachel for postpartum doula support!

We were recommended Rachel by another doula who was booked out over my due date, but we couldn't have lucked out more. Rachel not only was ready to jump right in she got back to us quickly and had great communication throughout the whole process. She is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive and it was so excellent to have her on our team!
Even though Rachel and I mapped out a labor and delivery plan, she was proactive enough to know that we would need contingency plans, you know just in case. Luckily for me, when I ended up needing to be induced causing me to have a marathon birth we already had a plan in place to get us through and stick to my original plan as much as we could do safely. Regardless of the sudden changes, Rachel was ready to jump into action. She not only helped my husband relax by joking around with him, she simultaneously helped me progress and stay calm by keeping me moving and helping me understand the process of everything along the way. She was the absolute best support a gal could ask for. 10 out of 10, would highly recommend!

I feel so blessed to have had Rachel as my Postpartum Doula. We don't live near family and my husband needed to return to work much earlier than anticipated. Rachel stepped in to support me post c-section. Her knowledge and support enabled me to heal and recover fully. Rachel is so knowledgable and offers sound advice without any judgment. Having had my first child during the pandemic, my experience with this baby has been night and day from my first postpartum experience - I attribute this to having Rachel's support. I learned so much from her and it was wonderful to have such a knowledgeable and kind woman to share this meaningful moment together. I will look back fondly on this experience and am so grateful for her support.

I’m so happy I was introduced to Rachel. Not only has she given us the gift of sleep as our night doula, but she’s gone above and beyond! For instance, she’s given us advice & observations that have led to a less messy feed + gas for our 8 week old. She also provided sleep training advice, upon request, that has gotten our baby to sleep for 4-5 hrs straight. We really appreciate her knowledge and strong connections in the industry. Overall Rachel has been dependable, communicative, and personable. We've also extended our contract with her because she's been that much of a help!

Our experience with Rachel was fantastic from day one. She was wonderful with our daughter and provided us with some much-needed rest during those early days in the postpartum period. It is clear to see that she not only is very experienced, but loves her job, and is so loving and affectionate, which is what you want in a caretaker for a newborn. Rachel provided excellent suggestions, but was also very supportive of our own decisions when it came to schedule and how we wanted to feed our baby. Hands-down this is one of the best decisions that we made for our family and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a Doula.
