Testimonial for Brandi Evans
I absolutely recommend hiring Brandi. My husband and I worked with Brandi as our postpartum doula after the birth of our son. We knew we were in good hands from the first meeting. Brandi asked us what was important to us for our birth and postpartum period - it was key for us to have space for our new little family to build our own rhythm and routines, especially with family far away, and we were looking for help during the day (so we'd be awake to talk and learn) and a couple of overnights (for some sleep and relief.) Brandi fully understood and had great advice from the start. Even before I gave birth, Brandi was available via text to check in on how I was feeling (physically and emotionally) and to help consult on house setup and baby item prep / baby registry.
Two days after my son was born, we were back home and in the emotional throes of learning how to breastfeed and console a very hungry and frustrated little guy. From the minute Brandi walked in, she brought a calming presence, quick solutions, and a focus for caring for my son and for our (shot) nerves and exhausted bodies. Within minutes, the baby was quiet, eating some expressed colostrum and formula, and then fast asleep; and we were so relieved. Over the next few weeks, Brandi became a part of the team, allowing us to take naps and recover, maintaining the apartment, helping us do the scary stuff like nail trimming and first bath, consulting on house setup, and - perhaps most importantly - lending a calm, kind ear. The couple overnights were helpful so we could reset, while knowing the little guy was in loving hands. We still trade texts and photos as he's growing and Brandi will probably always be part of our team in a special way moving forward!
