Testimonial for Shelly Paskowitz

I did my research online and found Shelly back in 2020 when I was due with our first child during the middle of the pandemic. I felt an immediate connection with Shelly from our first conversation on the phone and it only grew once my husband and I met her in person. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, compassionate and kind.  During this part of the pandemic doulas were not permitted at the hospital, however, I received wonderful support leading up to my birth and after my birth from Shelly as a doula and lactation specialist. She made a huge difference in making me feel confident during my breastfeeding journey which lasted 20 months. Fast forward to 2023 and we hired Shelly yet again for the birth of our second child and I could not be more pleased with the experience. Shelly was there for me throughout the pregnancy and birth, guiding me, supporting me and making suggestions. I felt so incredibly safe and in the best hands with Shelly. She made my second birthing experience the absolute best it could be, my husband and I cannot imagine that day without her. After the birth, Shelly was there for me as we embarked on another breastfeeding journey and provided an at home visit that is key in postpartum. She reassured me that I was on the right track and made sure I knew I could reach out at any time with questions. I highly recommend Shelly to other moms, she is the best out there!
