Testimonial for Emily Madden
Emily supported our family as a nighttime doula during the newborn stage with our daughter, Autumn, and we’re incredibly grateful for her care and support. She was reliable, communicative, calm, and consistently met both me and Autumn where we were each day.
One thing I especially appreciated was her proactive approach. Every morning, she shared detailed overnight updates on feeding, diapers, sleep stretches, and moods- something I had meticulously tracked myself with my first two babies, but hadn’t thought to ask for when using a doula. It was such a thoughtful surprise and gave me so much peace of mind.
She also brought a very grounded, data-informed approach to newborn care that I sincerely appreciated. When I was anxious about frequent spit-ups/fussiness and worried about a potential food allergy, she helped reassure me by talking through what true allergy symptoms typically look like, why Autumn didn’t seem to fit that pattern, and practical ways I could track common culprits if I wanted additional reassurance. Even as a third-time mom, I still needed that calm perspective and encouragement around feeding, sleep, and what was developmentally normal. And Emily consistently provided it in such a thoughtful and supportive way.
We appreciate Emily's support and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a knowledgeable, steady, and compassionate nighttime doula!
