Testimonial for Sasha Lazare, CD (DONA)
We worked with Sasha as our postpartum doula after our second child was born, and I am *so* happy and grateful that we did. Sasha is the best. She has an incredibly warm, calming presence that made it feel like a supportive friend had shown up to help us through the chaos of the early newborn stage. Sasha is very intuitive. She often she just noticed what would be most helpful and did it. She also happily took on things we asked for and supported our entire family, for example by playing with our older child, doing newborn care, folding laundry, cooking meals, and running small errands.
I really appreciated how flexible and non-prescriptive Sasha was. We had worked with another postpartum doula after our first, and while she was helpful, our previous postpartum doula had specific routines and practices she really wanted us to follow. Sasha was the opposite; she followed our lead and supported the way we wanted to do things as a family. She adapted to us rather than expecting us to adapt to her, which made everything feel so much easier during an already overwhelming time.
I highly, highly recommend Sasha!
