Heidy is a twin whisperer!! Heidy was our nighttime doula for four months. We booked an initial series of nights with her and soon realized we wanted more. She was flexible and considerate, working with us to add more nights and consulting with us before taking on another client. Heidy has a gift with babies. She is a mom herself, so she innately understands how emotional it can be to hand your baby over to someone else for the night. She is deeply respectful and always willing to do everything exactly the way you prefer. She is incredibly experienced as a doula and a baby nanny, so she has lots of ideas and is extremely intuitive. She is consults with you and brainstorm ideas, but she is never pushy. For example, she recommended using a white noise machine, but when we declined her idea, she was fine with our decision. (We ended up using the white noise machine by the way!) Heidy has a calm and loving presence. She is fun to talk to and some nights she would sit with us and chat. Other nights when she could sense we were tired or wanted to be alone she would go to the twins' room after getting a quick update. Heidy made good observations about our twins (when one had a stuffy nose, when one was spitting up a lot) and kept us informed throughout the night. She was tidy, always quietly coming to get my pumped milk and leaving clean pump parts for me to use. She was reachable by text anytime we needed her. When I got mastitis, Heidy called and texted to walk me through what to do. She managed to get our twins on the same nightly nursing schedule, and was able to quiet them on nights where we could not. The first few months with twins were exhausting, and having Heidy made it easier and more enjoyable. She was extremely punctual. On some nights, my husband and I would wait by the door with crying babies counting down her arrival! I highly recommend Heidy for anyone expecting a new baby.
