Testimonial for Tiffany Washington
I can't recommend Tiffany highly enough. She was our night doula over a period of about 2 months (June to August 2023), when our daughter was 2-4 months old. Tiffany started with us for 2-3 nights a week, and we later increased that to 4x weekly. This was an extremely challenging postpartum period for us, during which my wife was suffering from what was eventually diagnosed as severe postpartum depression and anxiety. Tiffany was quick to onboard with us, and we were immediately drawn to her reassuring warmth, confidence and the deep evidence-based + intuitive, hands-on knowledge she seemed to have of all things related to newborn sleeping, eating and soothing.
She continuously accommodated our unique and specific needs and requests, including more frequent, paced bottle feedings for our small, exclusively formula-fed daughter born a few weeks early who had been charting on the lower end of the weight curve. At the same time, she gave great suggestions as our baby continued to grow and her sleep habits evolved (when it seemed right to lengthen time between feedings, tips on preventing and treating rashes, feeding positions, just to name a few). It was invaluable to have Tiffany as a trusted source for hands on advice and emotional support (she gives the best hugs) as first time parents struggling through PPA/PPD, with a somewhat high-needs infant at the time. Our daughter is now almost a year old and is a happy, healthy, growing, 12 hours-a-night sleeper!
