Tara has been such a blessing to our family from pregnancy through postpartum. Due to COVID 19, our…read morehospital cancelled the breastfeeding education class we were signed up to take. As a first time mom I was so nervous and stressed out by this! Tara was able to offer a virtual breastfeeding education class that even my husband enjoyed. It was such a great feeling to have some baseline knowledge going into motherhood... especially because I have ZERO recollection of my inpatient breastfeeding education (thanks a lot newborn fog ). I'd also highly recommend a postpartum doula visit to any new mom, first time or seasoned! Not only was I able to shower, read a book, and nap- but I also got to learn some of Tara's baby whisperer tips and tricks. I will definitely be recommending Tara to any new moms in my life!

Buddha Belly, and our dula, Moriah, are absolute life savers!…read more My partner and I welcomed our first child in March and quickly became overwhelmed by the intensity and demands of caring for a newborn. I called Buddha Belly without fully understanding what type of support we would need, and they instantly put me at ease. They explained what different types of support looked like (full-time vs part-time, night vs day coverage, etc) and within a day had set us up with interviews for our dula. Most of all, they were very patient and accommodating as our needs changed. Buddha Belly is professional, responsive, and genuinely committed to supporting our family. Our dula Moriah is passionate about her work, is wonderful with our son and has taught us so much. We wholeheartedly recommend this service to any family looking for compassionate, trustworthy, high-quality childcare.

As we don't have family in the Tampa Bay area, for our first pregnancy/childbirth experience, we…read morewanted to hire a birth doula. After seeing so many great reviews and recommendations for Buddha Bellies, we booked the birth and postpartum doula services and honestly couldn't be happier. You get a pair of birth doulas to ensure one is available for when you give birth. Both were knowledgeable, friendly, and super supportive throughout my pregnancy. After an initial zoom call to get to know each other, we had a group text chat to check in and answer any questions I might have. They also suggested things to bring to the hospital, like an essential oil diffuser that really helped me and the nurses loved. My on-call doula on the day my son was born was Susan, and she was a lifesaver!! She arrived at the hospital promptly (despite living an hour away) and helped keep my husband and I calm. My husband had to leave for an hour to bring our dog to his boarding location, and so I was so grateful I had Susan with me during that time. I tried to give birth without an epidural, and her magical massages literally saved me and brought me to 6cm dilated. At that time, I decided I definitely did want/need an epidural, and she was very supportive of my wishes. She honestly felt like she became family that day and was so dedicated to my comfort. I can't imagine having done this without her. We're now onto the postpartum doula phase, and while we just started with our overnight care, we are SO glad that we made the decision to have a postpartum doula (kind of like a night nurse in this scenario). So far, it has been absolutely wonderful--the doula is very caring and loving to my baby boy and gives me a few extra hours of sleep each night, which is invaluable. As newbie parents, she offers advice and reassurance that things (like infant gas!) are normal. We are able to sleep soundly knowing that our son is safe with her in the other room! The Buddha Bellies support staff have also been excellent. It was very easy to be matched with and interview doulas--we hired ours on the very first try, as they were all of amazing quality, friendly, and with great experience/reviews. We cannot recommend them more!

Five stars for Dr. Mandani and his staff, and here's why:…read more The facility is always extremely clean with toys for the kids to play with in the waiting room There are two entrances, one for sick kids and one for healthy kids (awesome) Mandani is so attentive and caring... He never made us feel like he ever forgot about us. For a first time mom, when I would call the emergency phone number he always called me within 20 minutes. He's awesome! This is a doctor who works for the well being of children and not for the big fat paycheck. Love this place
