Testimonial for Loving Hands Doulas
There are not enough characters in any text box for me to say enough wonderful things about all three ladies at Loving Hands Doulas. Beth, Carol, and Jen came to my family at a time when my 3.5 month-old was struggling to eat and sleep, and my husband's health did not allow for him to get up in the night. Needless to say we were desparate, sleep-deprived, and feeling discouraged. From the moment Beth first stepped into my son's room, he looked right at her and immediately relaxed, and within two weeks he was down to 1 wakeup per night (normal for a breastfed 4-month old). Each of these ladies would come early and chat with us about how the day had gone, and were always eager to help in any way they could throughout the night with baby laundry, bottle-cleaning, and retreiving milk after I had pumped. What we needed in our house so desperately was sleep, and that was the first gift they gave us. From there, their constant support in person, via text and phonecalls also gave us the gift of confidence so that we could feel ready to go it alone again. Loving Hands is the perfect name for these three, although Loving Hearts would be approrpiate as well. In the short time they were with us, it felt like they all becamse part of our family. They are one of my first calls should I get pregnant again, and I feel so blessed that they were recommended to us. Our family is on such a better track because of their guidance and support, and I could never thank them enough. I would be happy at any time to provide more of a reference to anyone considering doula support. Hiring them was easily the best decision we coild have ever made.
