Testimonial for Anna Hourihan
Anna was the most amazing post-partum doula we could have dreamed of for our first child. From the moment we got home from the hospital, she was always there for us, providing virtually any type of assistance that we needed. Whether it was caring for our baby boy, tidying up around the house, providing valuable feeding tips, or just being a shoulder to lean on during tough times, we knew we could trust and rely on Anna.
Anna has extensive knowledge of babycare which was invaluable to us. As new parents, we learned practically everything from her, from diapering, feeding, babywearing to a variety of baby-soothing techniques. She also always has great recommendations for anything baby-care related, from IBCLCs to great baby products. Anna cares immensely about the parents' wellbeing as well. Besides letting us rest while she is at our home, she also has great suggestions on how to get more rest and get other support. Anna is extremely empathetic and kind. There were many complex emotions in the early days of becoming a mom, and I always felt comfortable sharing those with her. She is a great listener, and also always has intelligent things to say. The only difficult part of the process was saying good-bye when our time was up!
We are forever grateful for Anna's kindness, helpfulness, empathy and hands-on support during the entire time that we worked with her. We would highly recommend that future mothers hire Anna to help support the entire household!
