Ernest helped me as a post-partum night doula for five nights. He did a fantastic job caring for my baby and allowing me some much needed sleep.

My baby felt immediately comfortable with him.

Ernest was our night doula for a little over two weeks in August and September of 2024, and we have nothing but positive things to say!

I was recovering from a complicated birth (with additional complications after leaving the hospital). My baby had no complications, but was eating quite frequently, and between that and pumping, I was not sleeping, which was not aiding in my recovery. Ernest showed up promptly every night and made sure my baby stayed fed, allowing me peace of mind and the opportunity to sleep between pumping sessions, which was greatly needed. He would also give me a quick rundown before departing in the morning of baby's feeds and diaper changes, and if there was anything else that needed monitoring, such as baby's umbilical stump.

Ernest's calm, kind, and amenable nature put me very much at ease even on initial contact before hiring, and I am certain that that aided in getting my baby into a good overnight rhythm of mostly staying sleepy while eating enough to keep him growing and happy.

If we ever had need of a night doula again, we would absolutely ask Ernest again in a heartbeat, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking!
