Testimonial for Nicole Lang
Being first time parents w/o family in the area, we really wanted to work with someone we could trust and who would teach us how to care for our child. In addition, I suffered from a stoke 2 years before the birth of our daughter so I was worried about my mental and physical recovery so having an experienced expert was important. All of this was compounded when our baby arrived 9 weeks early and came home after 1 month in the NICU doing well but super small and needing extra care and attention. Nicole was so dedicated and her remarkable attention to detail immediately gave us comfort in letting someone else care for our child and help us navigate the transition from NICU to home life. Nicole shared her expertise and experience w/ us and was not just understanding but very supportive of specific items we asked her to manage – like keeping our baby upright due to reflux issues. She really felt like someone who was on our team, not just someone who's getting paid to do a job. She was truly invested in the health and wellness of our daughter, myself, and our family. Nicole’s kindness and advocacy for us even beyond the time we worked with her was remarkable. We had a less than ideal experience w/ another less-experienced doula and Nicole was incredibly validating and supportive and continued to answer questions well after she finished her contract. If you're on the fence, I would say the investment is 100% worth it - nothing is more important than your health and well-being! Pregnancy, birth, and 4th trimester never goes as planned and having someone in your corner to help you navigate and support you is so critical. The comfort that comes from working with an experienced doula (and mom!) is hard to replicate even if other caregivers come with ratings and recommendations.
