Testimonial for Maria Masvidal

Maria was my post partum doula this winter in the month after my first child was born. It was important to my husband and me that we seek help since our families live across the country and couldn't travel due to COVID. Maria provided this support seamlessly - she was flexible, able to tailor her support to our evolving needs and as we got to know our son. She has a nurturing, warm and relaxed personality which is very appreciated in those first few chaotic sleepless weeks. I also was drawn to her expertise in breastfeeding, as I had heard that could be a source of stress. She was really helpful in building my confidence, showing me tricks to get comfortable, and helping me keep perspective on the fact that breastfeeding is a learned skill - for both mother and baby. Almost 3 months later and my son nurses great - never had much discomfort and I think it's because we invested time at the beginning to have a strong start. I'd definitely recommend Maria to be that extended family support - her willingness to do whatever she could to be helpful (cooking, light cleaning, errands, dog walking) in addition to her expertise were so valuable to us.
