Testimonial for Ariana DeFreitas-Fortier
We had the most amazing experience working with Ariana. She was our nighttime doula from when our baby was 3 days old through 8 weeks old. She came every other night and would take care of our baby for 8 hours while both my husband and I got a full nights sleep.
As first time parents, we had a lot of learning to do. Ariana always gave us great guidance and advice - from breastfeeding to bedtime routines, she was very knowledgable and took a holistic and practical approach, which we appreciated.
She was also great with communication and responding to my questions, which helped ease my first time mom worries.
Ariana was also very proactive - often texting me a plan when I had previously expressed interest in introducing something new (ie pumping), which I really appreciated since it saved me some mental capacity during such a crazy time.
We also felt very comfortable talking to Ariana about our thoughts and plans for baby and never felt judged. She would help us weigh the trade offs and come up with a good solution together.
Lastly and most importantly, Ariana was great with our baby and we trusted her. She was such a huge help and we honestly don't know what we would have done without her! We highly recommend her and would be happy to speak to anyone considering hiring her.
