By 4 weeks postpartum I was honestly so tired and starting to feel like I was doing everything wrong. I found Kemi on Facebook and chatted for a bit, before hiring her. She showed up and was just so gentle with me, no judgement at all. The bodywork felt amazing honestly, my body needed it so bad. But it was more than that, she just made me feel like I could breathe again. I also appreciated the clear communication and her being on time for all her visits. Worth every penny, I wish I found her way sooner.

We referred a client to Kemi for newborn and postpartum support during a period of postpartum anxiety. She brought a calm, reassuring presence into the home and helped our client feel more confident and capable as a new parent. We appreciated her care and professionalism, and would recommend her to families navigating a similar season.

As a first-time mom, I had no idea what I was doing or how much I needed support until Kemi showed up at my door. From the first visit, I felt so cared for. Someone was finally taking care of me, so I could focus on taking care of my baby. I didn't expect the level of professionalism and setup she brought to my postpartum bodywork session, everything felt so intentional and calming. And somehow, in the middle of my own healing, she helped me bond with my baby in a way I didn't know I needed. The warmth, the patience, the little tips that made everything feel less overwhelming, it was unlike anything I've experienced before. I don't know how I would have gotten through postpartum without her. If you're expecting, do yourself this favor and reach out to Kemi.

After my wife's C-section, we booked Kemi for overnight support and honestly, it saved us. We'd originally talked about full bodywork, but with recovery where it was, that had to wait and Kemi still showed up and took such good care of her. She gave my wife foot and arm massages that helped her actually relax and sleep, and she taught her things I never would have thought of, like warming her belly and how to stand up without straining her stomach muscles. Those small things made a huge difference in how she moved and healed those first few days. Our baby didn't cry all night because Kemi was so attentive to her needs, and for the first time in a while, we both actually got a good night's sleep. We're so grateful we had her support.

Kemi came to my home when I was two weeks postpartum, and she was honestly exactly what I needed during such a vulnerable and exhausting time. She created such a calm, nurturing environment and allowed me to get the rest I desperately needed while caring for both me and baby in the gentlest way.

She prepared a delicious meal for me, encouraged me to slow down and simply be still, and reminded me that it was okay to take care of myself too. Her presence made me feel supported, cared for, and reassured when I really needed it.

From the beginning, communication with Kemi was so easy and booking was straightforward. She takes the time to understand your individual needs and works with you to figure out how she can best support you and your baby.

I’m so grateful I had Kemi during those early postpartum days. If you’re looking for someone who will care for you with genuine compassion, patience, and warmth, I highly recommend her. She truly goes above and beyond! ??

I highly recommend Kemi's postpartum sessions. I felt completely supported, comforted, and cared for. I really enjoyed the massage and body wrapping as well as the delicious tea and meal. She has a calm, welcoming presence and did a great job of creating a sacred space for rest and renewal.
