As a first-time mother who never expected to be a mother, my husband and I couldn't have done it without the amazing guidance and support from Amy. We had Amy come to our home as a postpartum doula, since we had no idea what to do with a newborn baby once we got home from the hospital. You can read all the books and Pinterest your heart out, but having a real, live person to help care for you and your baby and help with even the smallest things around the house is a total game changer. Amy showed us the ropes (bathing, how to solve the hiccups in a newborn, swaddling) for the baby AND helped me with my postpartum issues. The phrase, "Is this normal?" was heard a lot in our home those first weeks and Amy always handled my questions with care and support and left me feeling far more confident and relaxed as a first-timer than I would have been on my own. It was a joy to get to know her and have her in our home. I wish I could clone her and send her to all moms in town!
