Testimonial for Sasha Lazare, CD (DONA)
If you're considering hiring Sasha, run dont walk!
She came to our house twice a week after my third was born, and she was worth every penny. Everyone says "sleep when the baby sleeps," but that's honestly nonsense. Moms only sleep when they know their baby is in really good hands, and Sasha is really good hands. I trusted her completely with my baby, which meant I could actually take a nap, get work done, or just have an hour where my brain wasn't on high alert.
She was also amazing at just seeing what needed to be done. If I was busy with the baby, she'd unload the dishwasher, fold laundry, prep food, take out the trash, or whatever else needed doing without me having to ask. One day she even helped me pack my oldest for sleepaway camp. She made my life easier in a hundred little ways.
She's also just really nice to have around. Postpartum can be surprisingly lonely, and having someone in the house who's warm, easy to talk to, and genuinely enjoyable to spend time with was something I appreciated way more than I expected.
Feeling cared for postpartum is a really special thing. I'd recommend Sasha to anyone without hesitation.
