Luisa was such an amazing doula, and we felt genuinely lucky to work with her. She has such a peaceful and generous nature, and she took incredible care of both us and our son. She has a way of anticipating needs, and always came to our home with a sweet and positive disposition. She would often send us follow up information about our son's stages of development, and helped us to implement better soothing and feeding practices when he was colicky. We saw wonderful improvements when we took her advice. We always slept well when she worked for us overnight, and she brought genuine love into our home for our son and our pup. We hope to work with Luisa again, and I would recommend her without hesitation.

Luisa's support has been invaluable to our family. We greatly appreciated her exceptional care for our baby, which allowed us to get much-needed rest at night. Her friendly and kind nature made the entire experience comforting and reassuring. Luisa not only cared for our baby but also provided helpful suggestions and tips. Additionally, she voluntarily assisted with tasks we didn't request. I highly recommend Luisa for her outstanding dedication and support.

Luisa cared for our infant daughter overnight when our daughter was between 1-4 months of age. This is our first child, and I was so nervous about having someone else care for her (everything made me nervous!). But the moment Luisa came over for the first time and I saw her hold our daughter in her arms, I felt instantly calm. Luisa has such a calm demeanor and such a loving and respectful way of caring for and interacting with infants. I cannot recommend her enough!

Luisa helped me as my post-partum doula and I 100% recommend her. She is very patient, kind, caring, communicative and professional. I felt comfortable and safe leaving my little one at her care during the nights that she worked with me. Thank you Luisa! :)

Luisa has been absolutely fantastic to work with over the past few months. She is always on time (often early) and the text book definition of professional. She takes great care of our baby girl and goes above any beyond with her attention to detail both during the night and with recap/communication after the fact. We felt safe and secure knowing Luisa was in our home taking care of our little one and would highly recommend her to anyone needing some extra help with a young child.
