Working with Amanda

  • We were so lucky to have found Amanda. She was such a vital part of our early newborn and postpartum experience helping us both get better rest so we could function better as parents. Carter had to go back to work early, so it allowed me to be more present during the daytime. This allowed me to enjoy more of the newborn time, help my toddler adjust to new sibling, and support my post partum healing and ability to breastfeed. I was able to feel like I was thriving instead of just surviving this time. We had such peace of mind when Amanda was coming, and she was able to fit into our household with ease. She was always so kind and easy to talk to and took amazing care of our newborn. We would whole heartedly recommend her as a post partum doula to anyone interested.

  • Our family was so reassured with Amanda's presence. She has a deep knowledge of newborns and post-partum care. My husband and I would save up our questions about our baby's development, and when Amanda arrived we would chat and learn so much. Amanda is an excellent listener, and she clearly genuinely cares about the people she takes care of, big and little.

  • We can't recommend Amanda enough! She was so incredible with our fussy and particular little guy. She made him comfortable and tried new feeding techniques to help with his reflux. She was knowledgeable about the things he was going through and how to help us as well. We felt totally at ease with our baby in her care and wish we could have had her longer. She is an incredible, calm person — just what you want to help your baby.

  • As brand new parents, we didn't know how much help we really needed until we brought our son home from the hospital. I was recovering from a c-section and without additional family support, caring for a newborn proved challenging. Amanda was absolutely crucial in those early weeks! She brought a calmness and confidence that complimented our family so well. She met us where we were at, stepping in to support or giving us space at times as well. She's extremely good at reading a situation and creating balance. I immediately felt at ease and trusted Amanda. Even when I felt moments of high emotion and exhaustion, Amanda created a judgement free space, making me feel like I didn't need to do it all! Amanda took the utmost care of our home, our son, and us as well! Amanda is positive, kind, professional, emotionally intelligent, and deeply thoughtful. My only regret is that I wish we had hired her for longer! Thank you, Amanda!

  • Amanda's presence was a fabulous gift when I had my newborn twins. The most notable thing to me is her ability to be present. She had no agenda of her own. She never needed anything from me. In my most vulnerable state, with varying emotions and worries, random attire, sleepless nights, etc, she was NEVER judgmental. I never felt a bit uncomfortable. She was completely solid and loving, meeting me at whatever state I was in. Amanda is a gift to the world. She is dedicated and heart-driven, thoughtful, intuitive, present, and smart. She is one of the finest people I know!
