Having Tonya as our overnight doula was an absolute game-changer. For four glorious months, she provided 2 nights a week of SLEEP! Not only that, she met both practical needs (laundry & cooking), but was always available to answer my endless questions and give me coaching on the go. Even though this is my 4th rodeo - she still taught me so much! And let’s talk about her cooking! I’m still dreaming about the gluten-free breads, breakfast burritos, and variety of dinners she whipped up while the baby (and us!) slept! Even though I was breastfeeding, I actually got more sleep with her help. She took care of burping, holding the baby upright, and getting him settled so I could go back to sleep. As our son got older, she did the feed during the night so I could get a full night of sleep! But more than that, she became like family to us. I had a rough time postpartum, and Tonya was not only a doula—she was a shoulder to cry on (and trust me, there were tears!). Her calm presence and caring heart made me feel so comfortable and loved and reminded me that this is a hard season and I wasn’t going through it alone. If you’re looking for a doula who can not only love and care for your baby, but also keep you fed and well-rested, Tonya is your gal! You’ll wonder how you ever survived without her!
