Testimonial for Heidy Ramirez
We recommend Heidy completely and without reservation! My husband and I feel so lucky and thankful to have had Heidy as our postpartum doula. Heidy joined our family the night we brought our baby boy home from the hospital. She immediately put us at ease; as a new mom, I felt like I didn’t even know where to begin settling in at home with not only our baby, but also our seemingly endless hospitals bags and piles of baby things, but Heidy simply began to sort through the chaos and soon helped us feel reassured that everything would be ok! From then on, we felt like our little family was safe with her. She taught us how to care for our baby, from the most basic diaper changes and swaddling to proper feeding techniques and his first bath. We knew that our baby was in good hands and we looked to Heidy to guide us through the sometimes scary episodes of crying and moments which seemed so daunting as new parents. During the first few weeks when I was still recovering and exhausted, Heidy was a wonderful source of support; she helped me through plugged ducts and achy joints, providing intelligent and kind advice (but never making me feel pressured to do anything I didn’t feel comfortable with!). We really appreciated it that during times when it became overwhelming (for example, when we were trying to decide whether and how to have a procedure done for our baby’s tongue tie), she was consistently in touch with our lactation consultant as well as our other doula, so that she was always up to date with whatever concerns or issues we might have, without us needing to explain everything in detail again. Heidy was always ready to lend a hand or a hug if I needed it, but also so considerate in trying to give our new little family time to bond as well. We trusted Heidy implicitly and she became a friend to us. We could not gotten through our first month without her, and we are forever grateful to have had her with us!
