Testimonial for Lidia Sawakuchi
My baby came two weeks earlier than planned and the doula that we had contracted with was abroad at the time. She recommended Lidia to provide some help until she was able to return. I had never met Lidia, never checked any references, or even spoken to her on the phone. Needless to say, I was nervous.
Within minutes of meeting, Lidia put me at complete ease and I quickly realized that I had absolutely nothing to be nervous about. I would highly recommend her to every family that is looking for a night doula.
Experienced: Lidia is extremely well qualified and has years of experience and knowledge that makes her an excellent resource. Her quiet and calm demeanor was so helpful to me (and the baby!) in those early days when you are in a haze and have pretty much no idea what you are doing (at least, I didn’t!) She was able to provide great suggestions, resources and draw on her knowledge to help me and my baby make it through the early months
Non-judgmental: As experienced and qualified as Lidia is, she is equally non-judgmental and pushy about her suggestions and ideas. I never felt that I *had* to do something a certain way or even try any of her suggestions if I didn’t want to. (I always wanted to, though!). She was always positive, encouraging and always told me that I was doing a good job (Validation that I badly needed in those early days!)
A wonderful person: Lidia is just a wonderful person. She is friendly, warm, caring and calm. I always looked forward to her walking in the door. I consider her a part of our family and I know she will be in my son’s life for many years to come.
I recommend Lidia without reservation and I am happy to answer any questions you may have. Please ask Lidia for my contact information.
