Testimonial for Angeleca Liu, CPD
Angeleca was an incredible support and positive presence in our lives when we needed it most. I have been recommending her to all my friends who are pregnant, and we strongly recommend her to any family!
EXPERIENCED AND TRUSTWORTHY: We felt comfortable having Angeleca in our home and caring for our baby, and our baby was comfortable with her too. Angeleca was prompt to respond to baby-related questions and concerns, and provided helpful resources along with her own experience and practical knowledge. She helped walk us through many baby-care firsts, such as bathing, nail trimming, and baby-wearing.
CARING AND SUPPORTIVE: I experienced traumatic post-partum medical issues, and Angeleca’s calm, warm, caring presence and thoughtful questions helped us unpack our experience. She checked on my well-being at each visit, and provided reassurance and practical support in response to my new mom insecurities, which helped build my confidence and competence. We appreciated that she focused on the whole family as a unit, caring for our well-being as parents and people, as well as our baby.
PROACTIVE AND RESPONSIVE: Angeleca was proactive and found something to do on her own that was useful and helped our household stay organized and peaceful. Angeleca was also really good at anticipating needs: If the baby seemed hungry and I was about to start breastfeeding, she was right there with my pillow, water bottle and a burp cloth.
ELIMINATION COMMUNICATION (EC) AND CLOTH DIAPERING: Angeleca is very experienced with both of these. For EC, she shared online resources and did an observation session so that we could learn the baby’s cues for peeing and pooping. She also talked us through the pros and cons of each type of cloth diaper cover, and sent written recommendations based on our situation and needs.
We are so grateful to have had Angeleca alongside us at the beginning of our parenthood journey.
