Testimonial for Marina D'Amore

My husband and I had a baby boy in April 2019. I found myself very overwhelmed with a newborn (like everyone!), especially since our families live far away and are unable to visit often. Marina visited a few times during my maternity leave. Her first visit was about a week after we came home from the hospital, at the time our son would not sleep laying down and needed to be rocked/bounced or he slept on top of me. I was beyond sleep deprived. Marina stayed with me while I nursed him, massaged my feet and the she rocked him to sleep/carried him for 2 hours so I could take a nap. I woke up feeling refreshed (it felt like I had slept for 12 hours hahaha), and Marina had even prepared lunch for me. Her i was exactly what I needed. She also cleaned up my kitchen and did the babies laundry which were added bonuses!  

During each visit Marina made me feel like I had things under control and I was doing a great job, sometimes a little encouragement is all you need to keep going. She is a very calming presence yet very efficient with her time. She can also point you to other women in her network for help such as therapists, support groups, massage therapist, lactation consultant (which I also used, she was great as well!). When the time comes for us to have another baby we will definitely be reaching out to Marina.
