Hiring Raissa was the best decision I ever made for my daughter and myself. She is incredibly nurturing and experienced, bringing a sense of calm, support, and reassurance during such a vulnerable time. Not only did she care for my baby with so much love, but she also went above and beyond—doing my baby’s laundry, cleaning bottles, and always checking in on me to see how I was doing. As a first-time mom, that meant the world to me. She also taught my husband and I so much, giving us the confidence we needed as new parents. On top of all that, she got my baby on a great feeding and sleeping schedule, which made a world of difference for our whole family. I am forever grateful for her kindness, patience, and expertise. If I could, I would hire her a million times over! If you’re considering a postpartum doula, don’t hesitate—Raissa is absolutely amazing!
