Testimonial for Natalie Zeri PCD (DONA), CLC, CMT, CLES

We were so lucky to have Natalie help us during the first couple of months of our newborns’s life!

Natalie’s daily lactation coaching helped me get the hang of breastfeeding in a way that NO other consultant at the hospital could! I credit her for my ability to breastfeed comfortably and sustainably!

Natalie’s intuitive knowledge of body mechanics and ergonomics meant that she was always able to come up with ways to make holding or feeding R in any position more sustainable and comfortable—and this went for bottle feeding, too!!

Not only were her foot soaks (read: that PLUS amaaaazing shoulder /neck /arm massage + foot/calf massage) and full body massages relaxing, but they were also integral to the healing of my neck-arm-hand overuse/nerve injury. Postpartum is a time of great healing, and all of these things REALLY help.

Natalie also always made sure I was watered, fed, had taken my postpartum meds, gotten a much needed nap, etc.+ making sure to help with washing pump parts, dishes, or do whatever needed to be done, and more. …sounds simple but I always noticed how days without her, these things were much more difficult to achieve.

She was also SO good our baby, and we learned so much just by watching her, too!

We were initially a bit uncomfortable with her disclosure at the beginning that, while she has gotten the Covid vaccine and flu shot before, that she does not keep up with the boosters or subsequent flu shots—especially as we had required this for our other early visitors. However, as we worked with her, we found that she wore a surgical mask each time she was here and was very professional about proactively keeping us abreast of any possible symptoms of illness, and we would be comfortable working with her again.

Natalie was such a helpful and healing joy to work with, and we are SO lucky to have had her on our team!

Thank you Natalie! ??
