KATHERINE POSTPARTUM DOULA & COMPANY
Katherine came to our home on day 1 when we left the hospital. We hired her for 4 nights for 10 weeks. Katherine has a true gift with babies and parents. She has an aura of calm confidence that put all of our first time parent anxieties at ease.
She is sweet and personal, happy and loving. She listened intently and respected all of our wishes, while offering expert advice when needed. She was the silver lining of our newborn experience and the very top of my recommendations to any new parent.

When we first met Katherine we were extremely new, very tired first-time parents living far from family and struggling to keep our heads above water. As soon as Katherine entered our home, it felt like things were going to be OK.
Even more valuable than the much-needed rest that she allowed us were the skills and confidence she helped us build as parents.
She taught us how to manage wake/eat/sleep routines, work through common issues with feeding, and even walked us through bathing our baby for the very first time. We’re so grateful we found Katherine – she is a first-rate postpartum caregiver, baby expert, friend, and fairy-godmother who helped us grow into the parents that we are today. For that, we are eternally grateful!

Bringing Katherine on board as our night nurse was hands down the best decision we made as we anticipated the arrival of our little girl. As first-time parents, we were all too aware of the sleepless nights that come with a newborn. We hoped to find someone who could support us during the night, allowing us to be more present and savor the early days with our baby. Katherine delivered that and so much more.
Katherine shared her wealth of knowledge on everything from diapering a tiny newborn to breastfeeding support, recommended the best baby products, and showed us how to soothe our daughter's tummy troubles. She even walked us through our baby's first bath, offering to be right there with us for the big moment.
During those middle-of-the-night feedings, Katherine was more than just help; she was a friend and kept me company. She helped build my confidence as a new mom and helped us feel confident in our skills for nights she wasn’t there. She took initiative, too, tending to small chores around the house, which lifted a huge weight off our shoulders.
Katherine's punctuality, professionalism, and genuine affection for our daughter shone through every evening. Our baby girl was always so content in her arms, a testament to the calm and loving care Katherine provided. We placed our trust in her completely, and she became like family to us in a very short time.
If we could turn back the clock, we'd have Katherine with us for even longer. She didn't just help us get more sleep—she helped us become better parents
