Testimonial for Sarah Johnson
Sarah came over the first night we were at home with our baby and immediately helped put us at ease with her depth of knowledge and easygoing manner. Throughout the first 6 weeks postpartum, she helped guide us through many questions, new milestones and struggles, giving us the knowledge and support we needed to confidently make decisions and care for our baby. We would highly recommend her to any family looking for a postpartum doula!
Nighttime support helped us get much needed rest and learn how to get through challenging nighttime feeds and fussiness. Daytime sessions helped us catch up on simple but meaningful tasks like preparing easy-to-eat snacks (she even brough over ingredients and mixes to make them!), showering and doing laundry. She coached us through some early milestones like feeding our baby from a bottle, testing out different swaddles and nighttime routines, preparing for the first bath etc.
Sarah also helped support us as new parents! Reminding us to have patience with ourselves as we learned new skills and the dealt with the stresses of a newborn. She provided essential advice on how to navigate the early physical and mental challenges of breastfeeding and provided tips for improving sleep.
We always looked forward to having Sarah over throughout the week for her knowledge and support but also the genuine pleasure of her company and the joy and passion she brought to working with us and our baby. We will miss our chats but are forever thankful for all Sarah has done for our family and hope to work with her again.
