Testimonials from amazing Families I have worked with:
-
Maddie worked with my family starting the day I brought my youngest home from the hospital. She is wonderful in every way- kind, punctual, caring, dependable, and thoughtful. Maddie visits my boys to this day to stay involved in their lives. I wish Maddie could be our Postpartum Doula forever!

As a first time mama, you can study and prepare all you want, but when you are handed a baby, it’s very joyous and also overwhelming. Maddie was my sounding board while I was figuring out what it takes to care for my little newborn. She helped me gain confidence as a mother and supported me while recovering from a traumatic birthing experience. She’s extremely knowledgeable, but very respectful of your individual preferences in taking care of your baby. She made my postpartum experience a million times better!

Maddie was an amazing help and such a wealth of knowledge. It is so clear how much Maddie cares about not just the babies, but of the families as well. Maddie was made to do this. From the first evening we brought her home, I felt so comfortable handing my baby to Maddie, and as a mom, that’s such a gift!

It's hard to put into words just how much Maddie helped me in those first few months postpartum. As a first time mom, I had no idea how tough and lonely the nights could be. Maddie brought a warmth and presence to my home that made me feel supported, heard, and cared for. She truly loves my little one and is incredibly knowledgeable in ALL things newborn care. Every issue we encountered, Maddie listened thoughtfully and always had suggestions and resources to share. I cannot recommend her enough!

I had an unexpected c-section and came home from the hospital in a lot of pain. Maddie went straight to work! She made sure I was stocked with my breastfeeding essentials at my station on the sofa and by my bed. She made sure we had clean clothes, gave me bottle recommendations, nursing & nap tips, made me nourishing snacks, listened as I processed my daughter's birth and best of all...gave my husband and I total peace of mind so that we could take a nap, shower, exercise or do something for ourselves for a little bit without worrying about our daughter. Maddie is a dream with babies and will help as much or as little as you need with your newborn. She always puts mom first and makes sure you feel supported as you get your bearings as a new parent. Maddie has such a warm and calm demeanor. She adds an abundance of psychological safety to your life at a time when you may be questioning whether you are doing so many new things the right way for the first time. I always felt like I had the village I needed during Pia's early months (and still to this day, five months in) because I know that we have Maddie when we need her.
