Testimonial for Paige Greeley
Hiring Paige as our postpartum doula was the best decision we made as first time parents. Paige helped and supported us beyond measure during the fourth trimester. Beyond her dear friendship, here are just some of the things that Paige helped with:
- setting up the pump and teaching me how to pump
- helping through engorgement for the first 2 weeks postpartum
- breastfeeding- she suggested a nipple shield and it changed everything
- introducing a pacifier
- introducing the bottle and feeding our baby during the night so we could SLEEP!
- sharing product recommendations that actually help (ie the susher, halo swaddles, magic merlin, nightgowns, and much much more)
- cleaning bottles, pumping supplies, etc. and setting everything up for the next day
- changing diapers (as new parents, we really had no idea what we were doing and Paige helped and educated us without judgment on even the "simple" things)
- bathing our newborn
- teaching us how to file his nails
In addition, knowing Paige would be coming for an overnight alleviated SO much stress and anxiety. My husband and I knew we would get a solid night's sleep when Paige would be here, and that gave us so much peace of mind for the first 8 weeks of being new parents. She was incredible with our new baby and was so kind to our dog as well. Although we were nervous to invite someone into our home in such an intimate way, Paige fit right in.
Even before our contract with Paige officially started, she was always available when we had questions--she got back to us quickly and shared information and resources on everything from formula and products to sleeping and diapers.
I cannot recommend Paige enough--she is kind, smart, generous, and an incredible doula.
