Testimonial for Meema Spadola, PCD (DONA), CLC
Meema is amazing. During the stressful and unusual situation following the birth of my daughter, Meema was a calming, knowledgeable, and vital support for me. The day after we came home from the hospital, Hurricane Sandy hit and we were evacuated for five weeks. Because we couldn't go home, I was a stressed and scared new mother, with none of the resources I had prepared and anticipated having after the birth. Meema was wonderful - she immediately answered questions by phone and email while we were out of town, providing key advice and research (about breastfeeding, thrush, healing right after birth). Back in New York, Meema has guided me through pumping, sleep schedules, and developing a new identity as a mom, amidst all the crazy and contradictory advice you are exposed to at this vulnerable time. She is smart, funny, interesting, and kind - I appreciated her knowledge, but also enjoyed her company. She is a terrific doula and I still call to get her advice!
