When we found out that we were expecting our fourth child, I didn’t necessarily know what a doula was, but I knew I needed help! After suffering from postpartum depression In my earlier pregnancies, I sought to prevent a repeat. I thought I was just looking for someone to come to the house and keep me company, but what I got was soooo much more!
Demi came in to help us for a few days a week for 6 weeks, and every morning I was met with “have you had breakfast? Can I make you lunch? What can I do to make your life easier?”
Demi was awesome with helping out with all the things I didn’t even realize I would need help with—preparing dinner, taking care of the baby’s laundry, giving special time to our older children. There was nothing that I needed help with that she wasn’t willing to do. And when I just needed a break to shower or get some fresh air, she stepped in and took excellent care of our newborn.
And as a fourth time mom, I thought I had seen it all—but apparently a lot has changed in 9 years and Demi was super knowledgeable and able to answer questions and provide me with basic reassurance that I could do this! She provided great breastfeeding support, product recommendations, and just general advice based on her extensive experience.
Her positive attitude and warm personality made me feel at home—like she was family just coming over to help! And that’s an amazing feeling. We enjoyed working with Demi and highly recommend her as a postpartum doula.
