She provided such a level of warmth and comfort during this vulnerable and transitional time. She was communicative and readily available, thought of helpful ideas that hadn’t even occurred to me, and was such a calming presence. I have fond memories of Megan coming in quietly around 5:00 am, folding baby clothes, helping my 4 and 2 year olds get dressed for the day, offering to make me coffee, rocking my freshly nursed twins while I slept for an extra hour, and being so genuinely helpful to us, all while having a family of her own. She was truly willing and eager to do whatever would help our family best. Megan brought me lactation bites, stayed a few minutes past her shift so I could exercise and shower, and provided extra hands and an extra heart for our growing household when I was tired from momming and my husband was tired from work. It was so wonderful to have Megan enter our home for the time she did. Truly a kind and caring soul, with a love for mamas and their babies/families.

Not only is she a wealth of knowledge and lover of babies, she also listens to exactly what you need in order to provide you the best care. Being a mother herself and having gone through birth and postpartum, she draws from her lived experiences and understands what most mothers not only want, but also need. Ifelt truly heard when I expressed the things that were important to me. I can’t recommend her enough!

So much of learning how to be a mom, I did alongside my baby’s first few months of life, and it was so intimidating. I’m not sure I would be in the place I am now with our four month old if it weren’t for working with Megan as our postpartum doula. It was amazing having a trusted resource to get on-demand guidance from when our daughter was experiencing something new or foreign to us. Anything from sleep/nap struggles, wake windows, how to play, tummy time, combo feeding or anything else that came our way, Megan was an amazing resource for our family. Megan also helped us create time for ourselves. She took the pressure off me so I could exercise and start to feel myself again and also helped us with meal prepping healthy dinners that gave us time back for each other, keeping us nourished so we could be the best parents we could be while also fueling our relationship (as much as possible with a newborn!). I’m beyond grateful for her help and support and would recommend her to anyone that is about to jump into parenting, or is running it back and adding to their growing family!
