Testimonial for Cait Lanahan

My partner and I hired Cait as our postpartum doula, and couldn’t have been happier with the support we received. We first spoke with Cait over zoom before our baby was born, and from the first conversation we felt an immediate ease and connection with her. She shared some great resources off the bat including a recorded presentation about feeding that was incredibly helpful.

As first time parents, we had a lot of anxiety about basic newborn care. Cait held our hands and gave us guidance and peace of mind on everything from diaper change tips to giving our baby his first bath to so much support week after week with breastfeeding (different positions, engorgement and oversupply support, latch trouble, etc), and so much more. I loved her approach of having us do the task with her there to guide and support.

We expected to need support with newborn care, but what we didn’t expect to need so much was care for us as new parents. Cait made us feel taken care of from day one. She asked all the right questions about our own wellbeing, took care of our little one and made us delicious lunches for the week while we got much needed sleep, brought a jar of fresh tea for healing, and even gave me an incredible massage. I loved how she was able to read the situation and do little things that made our lives so much easier without our asking (like changing the sheets, throwing in a load of laundry, etc).

Cait was a calming presence in a very unsettling and emotional time, and we are forever grateful that we got to benefit from the care of such a skilled doula to make the transition a bit easier.
