Melanie was absolutely amazing! We were lucky to have her as a birth doula and then a nighttime doula for a few months post partum.
During our Zoom meeting, I already felt a great connection with her and I'm so glad we got her!
At the hospital, she was a great advocate for me. Whenever I had to make a decision, she made sure I understood my options fully and was never rushed or pressured. We had one nurse who was less than helpful, but Melanie stepped in and everything went smoothly. Having her with us made the process so much less stressful. We are so thankful for her support.
As a nighttime doula, she was a baby-whisperer! I wish I could settle the baby as quickly as she could. She helped with folding a bit of baby laundry and doing the baby dishes. Whenever we needed ideas or advice, she was very knowledgeable and had great referrals if something was out of her wheelhouse. She was always supportive and happy with whatever we chose to do.
I slept very deeply whenever she was here (I think that speaks to how much I trusted her) and she truly became part of our little family. And as a bonus, she was so patient with our nervous, barky pup!
If you ever have the chance to have Melanie, don't hesitate. She is the best!
