Testimonial for Laura McCarthy, PCD(DONA)
Hiring Laura as a post partum doula was one of the best decisions we could have made as first time parents. She came to our house a few hours after we got home from the hospital and was really helpful getting me and the baby settled while my husband was busy getting things set up for the house and baby. She came a few other times and was so helpful with transitioning me to being home alone with my newborn. She taught me how to wear my baby, how to soothe my baby and was in general very reassuring with all my questions I had as I second guessed every thing I did. She helped me learn how to use my breast pump and showed me how to bathe the baby. One day we even cleaned out my fridge and cooked up a bunch of random food into meals to freeze that my husband and i could eat that otherwise I wouldn't have had time or creativity to do anything with. She was quick to jump in and do what needed to be done without asking, like cleaning dishes, changing the baby's diaper, soothing the baby while I ate. Laura was very calming, kind and reassuring. I appreciated when she brought us some cooked food with her on a couple of her visits. I wish Laura could come to our house forever, she was just so helpful and kind! We will definitely hire her again if we have more children.
