Finding Megan a few weeks after welcoming our twins into the world has been a huge blessing to our family! We clicked instantly and she has become a great and valued friend to us. Megan took exceptional care of of our girls and I was always able to get a peaceful night of sleep knowing they were being taken care of with love and respect. Megan was always on time, positive, communicative and maintained the same level of care that I asked of her each night she was with our family. Trusting someone else with your newborn overnight can be difficult, I encourage you to use Megan!

We were introduced to Megan through another doula that had some scheduling conflicts and boy, are we glad we met her and were able to work with her multiple times throughout our first daughter's first 6 weeks in this world! Megan's temperament always put us at ease and she was able to share so many different techniques and ideas on how to manage her quirks that made our lives so much easier even when she was not there. Her professionalism is outstanding and she really cares about her clients. I would give her 10 stars if I could and would recommend her to anyone thinking of working with her!!!

Having Megan as our doula was the best decision we made for our entire postpartum experience. As first-time parents, she immediately put our entire family at ease. Not only was it clear how much she genuinely cared for our baby, but she cared for us as well by helping with breastfeeding, ensuring we got a good night's rest with every visit, and going out of her way to help with other little things we didn’t even ask her to do. Her time spent with us and the soothing techniques she taught us have paid dividends every single day in allowing our baby to sleep better and better as time has gone. We were so sad when our time with Megan came to an end and would highly recommend her to anyone!
