Words can't express our gratitude for having Esther by our side for the first 12 weeks of our baby's life. Esther was absolutely amazing and we couldn't have asked for anything better in a night doula. Esther is patient, kind, knowledgeable, loving and has a good sense of humor. Her years of experience as a mother and breastfeeding helped earn my trust quickly to take care of my baby during a very new and delicate time. Thank you Esther for all that you do. Any family would be lucky to have her

Esther was a godsend for us! With no local family we needed help when our second child was born by C section.

Esther was there the first several nights and was invaluable help getting my son to latch. As our first struggled to breast feed I had little experience with successful nursing. Esther helped to hold our son to my chest and supported nursing every three hours for those first several crucial nights she was with us.

We then had her come for several nights during the second week when we were at home to let us sleep a bit while we adjusted to the new reality.

Esther is such a positive person and so family oriented that her overall demeanor put us at ease and really helped during such a tenuous time during our first few weeks. She even checked in on our little guy's first birthday to see how he was coming along.

We will always have deep gratitude and fond memories for the role Esther played with our growing family.

I can't say enough about Esther (Essy)! She came to our home the first night we brought home our baby, and as first time parents, she brought so much comfort and peace in those early weeks as we navigated  parenting for the first time. She was incredibly patient and kind with our thousands of questions, and helped us in so many ways.  She is dependable, a great communicator, and wonderful at doing her job.  We can't thank her enough!
