Testimonial for Nicki Ament Certified Doula, ILFS
Nicki worked with my family after the birth of our first daughter this spring. We reached out the day we came home from the hospital and she immediately responded, set up an initial phone call and chatted with me at length about how she could support us in our postpartum period. Not only was this first point of contact with her so informative but she was incredibly reassuring, kind, and warm. In the hazy and overwhelming swirl of coming home with a new baby, talking to Nicki on that first call gave us so much hope! Once she started working with us, it felt like a dear friend or sister had come to save the day and teach us how to step more into our identity as parents. She helped us process the birth, taught us about babywearing techniques, held our daughter so I could catch up on sleep, and even sneakily did some light chores for us! At about 6 weeks PP, she also stayed overnight and did an overnight PP shift so my husband and I could catch up on some sleep. Nicki's work ethic, knowledge, and empathy was invaluable during our fourth trimester phase and we all loved seeing her when for her visits (my daughter included... she always took beautiful, long naps on Nicki!) If you want a non-judgmental, kind and supportive person to help you after the birth of your baby, don't hesitate to work with Nicki.
