Testimonial for Lauren Proano

Best choice I have ever made prior the baby was born. My LO came out during the holiday seasons, which was aleady a mess in the hospital, and after the rush discharged, felt like everything was out of control. I am so glad I have Lauren, though she wasn't able to make it the first visit, but she has a wonderful backup support system, her mom Julie and her cousin Carly, they helped to cover when Lauren was busy on the birthdula schedule. And the best thing is I have met with all her backups in the last interview section that was recommended by Lauren. love this team!

and I need to give Lauren the best credits on helping me get through the most difficult postpartum depression and anxiety time. My partner left me after the baby was born 3 weeks, and so many family drama happened in a short period of times. My PPD and PPA got worse and worse, and even had negative thoughts to end my life. The night time with Lauren, was the only thing can comfort me and calm myself. She's not only listening, and also gave me some strategy advices, helped me find the village and community. I still remember one of the night when I couldn't hold off all the pressure and being so depressed, Lauren told me, "give a chance to your little one, your baby deserves a chance to have you as her mom", that simply sentence lights me up and pulls me out from the darkness moment. 

What I want to leave the honest advice to all new moms, is having a night doula is the BEST thing you should do to yourselve, especially after all the hard thing you already surffered from the labor. Choosing ILauren, you wil never regret that.
