My husband and I worked with Veronica Hinojosa as a postpartum doula and baby night nurse in April 2019. Veronica met with us before our baby was due and already began providing value with her recommendations of the best baby products to start off on the right foot. Beginning our first night home from the hospital, Veronica’s services were invaluable for us as new parents. She provided a wealth of baby knowledge and answers to all of our questions, as well as a soothing presence in the house for us and for our baby.
I was especially grateful to have Veronica’s help with breastfeeding. She helped guide me through ways to get my baby to latch better, help my baby get more milk, and prevent pain for mom. She also treated me to a wonderful leg massage at the start of every evening while I breastfed to help relieve swelling and create an overall relaxing atmosphere. While helping me with this transition, she also provided guidance and coaching for my husband, empowering him to help me and our baby with tips and tricks and answers to all his many questions. Her care is holistic, helping everyone in the family adjust and learn in the challenging first weeks with a newborn.
We were very thankful that Veronica’s services allowed us to get more much needed sleep. While I continued to breastfeed through the night, Veronica’s care allowed me to get the most effective breastfeeding sessions, and then allowed me to sleep immediately after feeding, so I could be as rested as possible.
I highly recommend Veronica’s services as both a postpartum doula and baby night nurse for any parents. Veronica helped set the stage for us to have the tools necessary to care for our baby with confidence. There is no substitute for experience, and Veronica's many years of experience as a doula are evident in her knowledge of baby care as well as care for mom.
