Zoe was our phenomenal doula for three months, helping us all the way through the challenging 4th trimester. I don’t know how we could have done it without her. She did day shifts and night shifts, and comforted me through all the difficult transitions that came with postpartum: breastfeeding challenges, loss of self, difficult labor recovery, intense sleep deprivation while I was trying to increase my milk supply, and more. She was so wonderful with our newborn son, and we were always at ease seeing her interact with him. Zoe is communicative and proactive, and always figures out how she can be most helpful, whether that’s running a load of baby laundry, taking the baby from our frazzled and exhausted selves to soothe and put to bed, or guiding us through the numerous newborn milestones backed by her wealth of knowledge and research. We initially wanted to work with Zoe because she loves child development as a science in addition to loving babies and children, and we could not have made a better choice. Any time I had a question, she was game to answer, and I had so many as a first time mom seeking research-backed guidance. The internet can be overwhelming with advice (and “advice”), and Zoe was there to help us sift through it all.
Thanks to Zoe, we were able to rest and find a ton of joy in our transition to parenthood, rather than just feeling overwhelmed. While becoming a parent is challenging regardless, Zoe’s help made it much, much easier than it could have been. We are forever grateful!
