I can’t recommend Lauren enough. From the very beginning, she brought a calm, capable presence into our home and offered thoughtful, steady support—not just for our baby, but for me as a new mother. Unlike many doulas who focus mainly on the newborn, Lauren truly understands the importance of caring for the mother as well. She consistently made sure I felt seen, supported, and able to rest and recover. Lauren is incredibly reliable, attentive, and proactive. She quickly became our go-to overnight doula, and we always felt completely confident in her care. She’s also wonderfully engaged—she loved taking our baby out for walks in the stroller and to the playground, giving me the gift of quiet mornings and uninterrupted sleep. She’s easy to talk to, never hesitated to pitch in with anything that would make our lives easier—and she’s the kind of person who thinks of the little things. One of my favorite parts of having Lauren in our home was her tahini chocolate chip cookies. She made them during her shifts (testing and refining the recipe until it was just right), and I’d wake up to a fresh batch waiting for me in the kitchen. It became a small but deeply appreciated ritual. Lauren is a true professional with a generous heart, and any family would be lucky to have her by their side during the postpartum season.
