Testimonial for Natalie Bardsley,
When our twin boys were born into our family that included a spirited nineteen month old and strong willed four year old, my husband and I were not sure how we were going to make it through the process. Then, to make matters more stressful, we found out my husband was going to be called back to work less than two weeks after the twins arrived. Thankfully, we found Natalie. Her nurturing personality, incredible expertise (with not only the new babies but also the "older" two children), and sense of calm that she brought into our very chaotic home was such a blessing!
Natalie listened to all my anxious questioning about the new twins and was an incredible resource provided guidance on everything from breastfeeding to babywearing to what vegetarian meals would be the best in my crock pot or freezer. If there was a question she was unsure about, she brought back the answer the next time she saw the family. It brought me comfort that she responded to my older children and made them feel included and important in the process of bringing the babies home.
Natalie obviously loves what she does and is committed to seeing mothers through (what I call) "survival mode" and into "thriving mode" where we are confident care takers of our children. I would absolutely recommend her services to every new mother. She is an incredible person and I am so happy she is a part of my family's world!
