Sheila is an incredible doula who could do miracles with little.
Efficient, creative, pragmatic and always smiling, it was a delight to have her in our company. She was with us full time for about 3 months. Her knowledge is great and impressive.
As new parents we did not think that we would need help right away but we did as Noel had to go back to work earlier than expected. It’s something of a different feeling when asking a stranger to take care of your newborn, but Sheila put us at ease quickly. You can tell she has a huge heart and will always put your child first. She is such a warm person to be around.
She came multiple times a week to our place during the first few months and really helped us out a lot. She went way above and beyond what we thought a Doula would do, and we think that it is her way of doing things. She is probably the most caring person we have ever met.
Sheila was wonderful with us, she has such a big heart and lots of experience as a mom that transpire in her work. She helped me organize the home and making it safe while helping me caring for our baby girl. When I struggled with pumping, she gave me wonderful advices that helped me get some of the liquid gold, as she calls it. So precious. It was always a delight to hear her sing to baby to make her fall asleep.
She came back later that year, as I was struggling taking care of my dying dad, helping my mom with her own health problems and taking care of baby at the same time with Noel at work, she then helped me with daily chores, errands and took care of our toddler while I cared for my parents.
We have no idea how we would have been able to manage without her. We are so grateful to have met her.
We would highly recommend Sheila for all your Doula needs. Her knowledge and experience with raising her own family and her guidance helped us out immensely.
Thank you Sheila!
