Testimonial for Loving Hands Doulas
I have had an extremely positive experience with The Loving Hands doulas team with post partum care for the births of both of my children (2014 and 2017). I have worked directly with Beth and Carol and they both have gone above and beyond to support me and our family through the post partum period and beyond - initially as new parents and the second time around with a toddler. They are extremely knowledgeable and wise and I have learned so much from them about nursing, newborn care, sleep, etc. They offered helpful information and ideas to try during the day as well (for example with feeding, naps) and always followed up to see how everything went. They took excellent care of our babies and also made sure I was hydrated, fed and cared for in the post partum recovery period. They helped around the house as well (ie to set up babies room/items initially, laundry, dishes, etc) to help support our family and optimize our rest as much as possible. Their team is hardworking, compassionate, warm and professional. They are always punctual and often early - and stay in communication to check in to see how we were/are doing both in between days of their services and following completion - further demonstrating their genuine interest in and care for the babies and families they work with. The group structure has worked well for us and allows for flexibility to ensure their families have care if a baby is born early, etc. I feel so lucky and thankful that we found Loving Hands doulas and know that our children were in the best of hands. We will certainly work with them again should we have any more children and I will continue to recommend them to our friends and families.
