Sarah, mama to Sienna and Juliette

I can highly recommend Rachel as your Lactation Consultant and as an overnight doula.  She was supportive of my journey from the start-which was not a traditional breastfeeding journey-but involved mostly pumping and the possibility of using formula from the start.  She supported me, never judged me or pushed me to "pump more", etc.  I was worried about this because when I had my first child, some of my providers wanted me to put my mental health last and put breast feeding first.  Rachel never made me feel this way and was amazing! She took the time to show me how to properly pump, going the extra mile by coming to my house & watching me pump and always answering my texts or calls in a timely manner.  I had a lot of trouble with pumping- especially with clogs-and she gave me wonderful tips and I am in a much better place now.  I learned so much from Rachel this time around and I am so thankful for her. I can proudly say that I am at 3 and half months and my TWINS have had majority breastmilk at this time!!! I would thank Rachel for that :).    

I would also recommend hiring Rachel for overnight help.  It was the only time I could rest peacefully knowing that my babies were in trustworthy hands.  Every time Rachel came over, she would get both babies sleeping soundly and I did not have to worry about anything.  I could get rest and she would help me with the bottles, laundry, etc.  I would highly recommend Rachel for overnights at your house if you need some sleep with newborns!  She is a natural and your babies will be in good hands.
