Beth is exactly the type of postpartum doula you'd want after coming home from the hospital and even though we didn't use her services as a birth doula, we certainly would in the future! As for getting to know her during postpartum support, Beth is extremely professional (proactive, flexible) but also very, very caring which is a hard balance to come by. She is not a "clock in/clock out" type of person and was always thinking of helpful tips/products to help our newborn. The first time we interviewed Beth on a Zoom call my husband and I both joked, "phew! someone to take care of all of us" and that held true throughout our time together.
Beth was also able to advise me on lactation issues and corrected some of the bad habits that were formed during our stay at the hospital. For example, she identified that I was an oversupplier by looking at my son's stool/how he was feeding. She gave me straightforward advice on how to correct the issue and I'm not kidding it resolved it almost instantly.
