Testimonial for Alexandra Blanchard
We hired Allie as a postpartum doula. As first time parents with no family nearby or close friends who are fellow parents, she was a lifesaver. She is so easy to talk with - compassionate, comforting and welcoming, and always checking in on baby, mom, and dad. Her depth of knowledge is astounding - any new concern we had, she was able to speak at length about, and always had resources (either a book to borrow or site to check out) for us to learn even more. She knows about so many different medical and parenting approaches and can talk you through pros/cons of anything to help you decide what's best for your family. She was available for any and all questions at all times, and whenever things got really tough (like nursing challenges) she was so supportive & always able to offer a new approach to get through it. As our newborn was growing and changing rapidly over two months, she always told us exactly what was ahead, how to handle it, and what we can do to help him. She's also an excellent cook & super helpful around the apartment :)
If we have a second child, we are absolutely calling her again - and highly recommending her to others.
