Anna was an incredible support to us before, during, and after the birth of our baby. This pregnancy was especially meaningful after experiencing difficulties and miscarriages in the past, so having someone we trusted by our side was incredibly important. From the beginning, Anna helped me feel calm, reassured, and prepared. She helped me create a birth plan, educated me about labor and my options, and always supported my decisions without ever making them for me.

When our birth didn't go according to plan and I needed to be induced, Anna was there every step of the way. As we navigated interventions including the water balloon and Pitocin, she helped us understand what was happening, talked through our options, and helped us decide what felt right for us.

One of the biggest ways she supported me was when my epidural repeatedly wore off. For hours, she helped me breathe through each contraction, guided me through different positions, and worked alongside my husband applying counter-pressure. She showed incredible patience, care, love, and compassion through every difficult moment.

Anna was also an amazing support for my husband. She gave him confidence and practical guidance on how to support me during labor, while also being there beside him when he needed reassurance. Her presence made us both feel safer and calmer, knowing we had someone we trusted to help us navigate whatever came next.

Her support continued after birth. She consistently checked in, helped with feeding, and provided lactation education and support. And, of course, her lactation cookies are the absolute best!

Having someone we trusted in such an intimate and vulnerable experience was incredibly special. We truly don't know what we would have done without her, and we will always cherish that she was there to support us as we welcomed our baby into the world. We cannot recommend her enough!

Anna provided such considerate and warm care during our early postpartum weeks! She slotted into our needs flexibly and seamlessly, easing pain points and offering guidance answering all our questions, which really got us on steadier footing and gave us more confidence in doing this thing. As a bonus, her cooking and treats were all nutritiously considered and delicious. We'll always hold such gratitude for her having been a part of our early parenthood days! <3 <3

I had such a wonderful experience working with Anna. She was recommended by my birth doula in th frost few weeks post birth. I was struggling with PP anxiety and had extreme sleep deprivation. Anna was such a calm, kind, capable presence in my home. I immediately felt comfortable and Safe with her. She was happy to help with anything that helped lessen my load. When I didn't have the bandwidth to make her a to slide she took initiative and got so many tasks done around our house. She was so good with the baby/ such a nurturing human. Anna came over 2 or 3 days a week for a couple of months. Her expertise around lactation was also really helpful. I have recommended her to so many friends since working with her. If you're looking for support in that first several months after baby arrives I whole heartedly recommend working with Anna. Just some of the things she helped with were: caring for baby while I rested. Shared advice and wisdom around nursing, diaper rash, gas, and anything else that came up with baby. She helped with food and meals/ snacks, laundry, dishes, and grnersl tidying up. She took so many things off of my plate and greatly reduced my anxiety through all her help and emotional support. Anna is also super easy to communicate with, organized, responsible, and attentive to details. I learned so much from her that really help build my confidence as a new mom.
