Testimonial for Giulia Canali

Giulia worked with us a post-partum doula. I cannot speak highly enough of Giulia! First off, when we met her, stressed, getting everything ready for baby, her entire energy/way of being was a breath of fresh air. She emanates light, kindness, expertise and confidence in the most gentle, warm and comforting way. It was clear that it would be what it was - a blessing to share in the first days of bringing our child home as first time parents. 

When we came home after unexpected hospital delivery, followed by two days in the NICU, she immediately made time for us and helped calm our minds and hearts with a simple plan to start finding sanity after a week without sleep. Giulia is clearly an expert, able to discuss different options and pros/cons to each of the evidence-based methods she discussed. She also helped in every way needed and was a baby whisperer to get our daughter to sleep when I needed a nap. She helped us figure out plans that would work best for our life and the way we want to parent. She gave us straightforward information without bs, and her opinion as an expert, while taking into consideration our goals, needs and feelings - exactly what we would hope for. 

We originally heard from friends about the idea of working with a post-partum doula and it sounded lovely, but were unsure because of the added expense. We are so glad we did after working with Giulia. There is something invaluable about having someone like Giulia (warm, gentle, with expertise) there in my first months as a new mom. She helped with whatever was needed (cooking, dishes, diapers, baby to sleep) and also is a lactation coach and an expert in child-rearing. To have all that expertise there with us at once as we build our foundation as parents is something different. Again, I simply cannot say enough good things about Giulia. She is so knowledgable and is a joy to work with. Working with Giulia was a priceless blessing during such an important time.
