Testimonial for Shamika Matos
Shamika was an absolute gift to our family during the early postpartum weeks. She provided exceptional lactation support as we navigated both breastfeeding and bottle feeding, helping us build confidence and calm around feeding in a way that felt supportive and never overwhelming. Her guidance was practical, reassuring, and tailored to our baby’s needs.
Beyond feeding, Shamika modeled gentle, effective soothing techniques and helped us learn how to support calm naps—often for long stretches and in a variety of settings. Watching her work with our baby taught us skills we continue to use every day.
Shamika also supported our household in meaningful ways, helping with laundry, organization, and light cleaning, which made an enormous difference during recovery. She took the time to truly learn about us as a family and adjusted her care thoughtfully and intuitively.
Perhaps most importantly, Shamika was a steady, calming presence. She supported me both mentally and physically during my postpartum recovery, offering care, reassurance, and grounding when it was needed most. We are deeply grateful for her and would recommend her wholeheartedly to any family looking for knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly personalized postpartum support.
