My partner and I strongly recommend Molly as a doula for the following reasons: 1. She is knowledgeable. Molly is up-to-date on all of the latest CDC recommendations, provides tips and tricks for making raising a newborn easier, and has cross-cultural experience. For example, when we brought home our newborn, Molly taught things that new parents may not immediately think about, such as best practices for labeling freezer storage bags of breastmilk or how to best hold a baby to burp them. 2. She is nurturing. My partner and I engaged with Molly both as a day and night doula. During the day, we saw how Molly catered her approach to what our LO needed. She took the initiative to get tasks done, such as changing a diaper, within the first minutes of having her come over. 3. She is conscientious. As a new parent, sleep was a top priority for me, and Molly made our nights with our newborn so easy and restful. She would prepare everything I needed to pump; she would feed the baby; and then clean everything up so that I could get some sleep. She made she to ask my preferences: e.g., where she should leave the pump parts and if I needed water or a snack.
I hope other families have the pleasure of working with Molly.
