Testimonial for Lidia Sawakuchi
I'm so delighted to provide the strongest possible positive recommendation for Lidia. Over the last few months of her working with our family, we have developed an unmatched trust and level of comfort in her abilities and approach. Lidia has a unique way of helping parents exhale and relax with a stronger sense of confidence and calm. She is intelligent, highly experienced, empathetic, calm, a life-longer learner (always taking new classes and has a true appreciation of being great at her craft), understanding, professional and loving.
Her approach is supportive, non-judgemental, curious and helpful - especially for new moms. I feel lucky to have developed such a trusted partnership with Lidia and get her point of view on issues ranging from transitioning back to work to breastfeeding to post-partem stress management. I found her to be an incredible partner and advocate who's helped me and my husband create a more thoughtful approach to help our daughter be a more comfortable, happy baby.
Each night with Lidia feels restful and productive - not just because as a mom I'm sleeping soundly without worry and with complete trust in her abilities - but because we discuss things for us to work on with a trial and error energy that feels solution-oriented. She has a non-judgemental way of making suggestions in areas where she sees an opportunity to make things better for our daughter. For example, she suggested a new formula that might help her sleep more soundly and a different type of swaddle that might improve her sleep throughout the night. Our daughter suffers from acid reflux and gas but Lidia's suggestions (e.g. using a new formula, my change in diet, overall patience in approach) has made such a difference in her temperment. After our first few months with Lidia, I personally couldn't imagine life wtihout her. We are so incredibly lucky to have found her - she is in a league of her own!
