We were incredibly lucky to be matched with Angela! Angela helped us get through a really tough time in our lives. The care provided to our son was warm and loving, and we were treated with respect as well. Also, Angela has a great intuition is tapping into what needed to be done like helping with baby laundry, heating up meals, and keeping to a schedule precisely. The icing on the cake is that Angela listened when I needed help processing motherhood, grief, or whatever I needed support with doing our sessions. Hire Angela! You will not regret it!

We were so lucky to have Angela as our daytime postpartum doula. Angela brings calm and assurance into every space she enters, and is a wealth of knowledge on the postpartum experience and newborns. 
She offered studied opinions when asked, text resources, and personal experiences-- all so welcome when navigating motherhood for the first time.
She helped my partner find different ways to be helpful to me, and got us set up on a really good track.

I have only excellent things to say about her, and would highly recommend Angela to any expectant parent looking for warm, gentle, and assuring postpartum support.

Oh, and Angela also makes an incredible lactation cookie and gives a fantastic shoulder massage!!
