Susy is seriously the best postpartum doula!! Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and caring but she offers 24/7 support answering calls, texts anything you need even when she's not with you during the day. She took such great care of me and my little boy and taught me so much in the fourth trimester and she's become basically apart of my family! Her services also include connecting with a network of other doulas, nanny's and childcare support, I could not speak more highly of her and her business! Just had my second baby and so happy to have her back with me during the nights to help me recover and adjust to having two kids!

Susy was beyond anything we could have ever hoped for. She was knowledgeable, kind, loving, and easy to have around. She is always one step ahead in caring properly for the baby and does everything with a caring and gentle touch. She is a true angel and there is not one thing we would change about our experience working with her. She is amazing!

I cannot recommend Susy highly enough! From the moment we connected, she brought a sense of calm, reassurance, and expertise that made all the difference in our postpartum journey. She took the time to truly understand our needs, answer all our questions, and provide unwavering emotional and physical support.

Susy is an invaluable source of knowledge and encouragement, making the transition into parenthood smoother. She showed so much kindness and patience, ensuring we felt supported both emotionally and physically.

If you're looking for a compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated doula, look no further than Susy! We are forever grateful for her care and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for the best experience possible!

I am beyond grateful for the incredible support my doula  Susy Caracas and her team provided me and my baby girl ten months ago. As a single mom, those first six months were both beautiful and challenging, but Susy was there every step of the way, guiding, educating, and offering unwavering support. From late night feedings to understanding my baby’s needs, she gave me the confidence and knowledge to navigate motherhood with love and assurance. Her kindness, patience, and expertise made all the difference in my journey. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to be by my side. Thank you for your dedication and care, you are a blessing...we love you !
