Testimonial for Tara Martinsen
As a first time Mom who had no experience about taking care of newborn, I felt unprepared for postpartum life in every aspect as I heard it is a very important period of time for Mom care and baby care yet it is a difficult time too. We are so blessed that we got recommendations about Tara and worked with her. She is very gentle, empathy, considerate, respectful and detail-oriented. Our families are far away from Arizona our and would not be here immediately after baby birth. Having Tara as our postpartum doula, we feel like we have a very loving family member here.
She helped me tremendously for the transition time right after our baby got home. From all the details taking care of our newborn, to neccessary baby care items recommendations; from the motherly/sisterly care on me during my recovery to emotional care and chat about parenting wisdom. She also makes amazing meals, lactation cookies. She showed me how to be a great Mom in many aspect in a short period of time. She is also very talented in interior design and space organizing. She helped me reorganizing home and set a great foundation for an orderly home welcoming a new baby.
Both I and my husband feel like the money we spent getting Tara's postpartum support worth every penny. We wish we could have her longer than postpartum period as she is really awesome and sweet beyond our imagination. I am so glad that I had postpartum happiness which in my situation would be very hard to achieve without a wonderful postpartum doula like Tara.
As I got to know more about Tara during our time spent together, I wish I could have her as my birth doula - I just didn't know her until very late pregnancy when I had already had a birth doula. Hindsight 20 20, Tara definitely would be a way better choice to be my birth doula.
