Testimonial for Meema Spadola, PCD (DONA), CLC

We are so glad we made the decision to get a postpartum doula, and even luckier to have found Meema. To put it simply, she was wonderful! During covid times, you are even more careful when it comes to your precious little one. Meema took all the precautions which was very important to us. She made sure we all feel safe during her in-person visits.

We learned so much from Meema about our little one: how to listen to his needs, how to take care of him. And most importantly, how to trust our own instincts. Meema is very kind, warm, empathetic, understanding, knowledgeable, supportive, easy going, caring, a good listener, very enjoyable to be around and a great advisor - just to name a few.

Meema also included my husband in everything which was very important to us. He was involved at every step and shown how to support me and my son.

In the early days, I was not feeling comfortable to put my son in a carrier. With the assistance from Meema I felt comfortable doing this. Even when my son was crying and I wanted to stop, Meema was able to guide me through the process so I felt comfortable putting him in my baby carrier. This all happened over a video call which shows how great she was at describing what needed to be done in a manner that made me feel comfortable and confident. She was very professional and understanding in her approach. This is just one example of many where Meema gave me and my husband amazing guidance to make us more confident in our decisions as parents.

Even though she would say we had great instincts, her teachings have helped to make us into the parents we are today. We highly recommend Meema to every parent and know she is the right person to turn to.
