Testimonial for Samantha Johnson
Sam has been with our family through two completely different chapters. She was there when our twins came home, and again when we brought our second baby into the world years later. Both experiences couldn’t have been more different, but the one constant was her calm, steady presence.
This time around, as a second-time mom, I thought I knew what to expect, but postpartum hit differently. When we pulled in the driveway with baby fresh from the hospital, she was standing at the front door with our twins, and somehow made the transition feel peaceful and manageable. She asked thoughtful questions about my recovery and feeding, and her expertise shows in how keen and aware she is. I ended up having milk production issues and she connected me with an amazing lactation consultant and even a pelvic floor therapist.
What I love most is that she sees the whole family, not just the baby. She helped the twins feel included, made my husband feel included and heard, and reminded me to slow down and rest. Having her by our side both times has been such a gift. She truly becomes part of the family.
