Colleen is a truly a genius when it comes to babies, lactation, family dynamics, mental health, and anything else that could possibly come up post-baby. We love that we can text her and get instant answers - Google has nothing on her! She was also an amazing health advocate for me because of her background as an RN (even joining in doc apts) as I had complex postpartum complications and our family will always be so grateful for her guidance and positivity. We also hired Colleen for her sleep specialist program/sleep training and her custom schedule, coaching, and tips made it so easy. Our son has been sleeping through the night and taking 4 naps a day since 3.5 months old. (Now he's a pretty chill baby, but Colleen is magic.) Working with her is worth every penny, whether it's for a first baby or navigating multiples. I'm writing a long review because I'm so passionate about Colleen's work and I hope others hire her to make their postpartum journeys a million times better than you can possibly imagine. Thank you, Colleen!!!!

Even on the days she didn't come, I felt like I could be more relaxed because I knew that I would have support on other days. Camille quickly felt like an integral part of our postpartum family constellation. She would show-up and tune into our postpartum needs around the house and with baby care with ease and joy. Welcoming our first child to the world was a happy and amazing experience, but there were times of feeling overwhelmed and isolated. Camille's sensitivity, sense of humor and compassionate presence helped our family feel nurtured and brought positivity into our home that was invaluable. I highly recommend working with Camille!

Kelsey is not just a doula, she's a walking, talking pregnancy, birth, and postpartum search…read moreengine. Her knowledge is vast, and her resources are endless. She provided us with invaluable support before, during, and after my birth. In short, Kelsey is an exceptional doula-don't hesitate to hire her! Before meeting Kelsey, I didn't know a lot about doulas; I just knew I wanted all the expert support I could get going through my first pregnancy and labor. My understanding of Doula meant home birth with a midwife, but I planned to give birth at TMC with my OB.  I first contacted Kelsey through her website (after thoroughly stalking her Instagram hygge.birth.services) when I was about three months pregnant; we scheduled a video call meeting to get to know her. After our initial call, Kelsey left her email and phone open for any follow-up questions we might have while deciding whether to become her client. Kelsey's service offerings are comprehensive, and we opted for her Complete Birth and Postpartum Support Package. While I was Kelsey's primary client, my husband also benefitted greatly from her support. We had a group text throughout the pregnancy to address any questions or concerns, ensuring we were both well-informed and prepared. Kelsey's support was instrumental in keeping us on the same page, especially when I went into labor and was unable to communicate as effectively.  Even if you're not interested in a doula for your entire pregnancy journey, I highly recommend taking Kelsey's Childbirth Education Course (CBE). She offers private sessions in your home. She is offering a reduced rate as she is in training, which is a fantastic deal. I wish we had started her CBE course when we were family planning; there is so much information that would've been really helpful in the early days of our pregnancy. Even starting when we did, around 6 months, there was still an abundance of information we took away from it. Taking her course would also be a great way to get to know Kelsey if you're not sure you need a Doula yet. On our second night home with our baby girl, she wouldn't stop crying, and my husband and I were at our wit's end. The "5 S's" weren't working. I sent Kelsey a frantic text at 11 p.m., and to my surprise, she quickly responded with encouragement and guidance. I'm sure that isn't always possible, but that's just one example of how Kelsey goes above and beyond to support her clients. Kelsey is also an amazing Mama. With a toddler and infant, she's in the thick of parenthood, which is just an added bonus. She is also very organized, which was helpful for my very disorganized personality. Although our formal package with Kelsey has ended, we will stay in touch. I plan to hire her for additional postpartum support visits. She's kind, caring, compassionate, and a great advocate. I'm very grateful she was a part of our birth journey.

Oh my goodness, I cannot say enough good things about Katie. I started breastfeeding immediately at…read moreTMC, and the in-house lactation consultants assured me I was doing great and my baby was getting fed. I was proved otherwise after a rough first few days home, followed by a pediatrician's visit. My baby girl had lost a little over 10% of her weight in the first few days of life. The pediatrician recommended that I start feeding with a combo of formula. However, I was hesitant to move on to formula right away, given everything I'd heard in the breastfeeding community. There are so many mixed messages out there. I was so lucky that my Doula referred us to Katie, a registered nurse and certified lactation consultant. She did home visits, and since I was so stressed and tired, a home visit was a lifesaver. Katie was able to come that same evening; I couldn't believe it. After a weighted feeding, we discovered I was seriously underproducing, and my baby girl was hungry. It was such an emotional time for us; Katie was compassionate and kind as I sobbed in my living room. She stayed longer to ensure we had everything needed to get our baby girl through the night. She taught us about formula and bottles and even showed me how to work my pump so I could start pumping immediately. Katie came again the next day to ensure baby gained some weight through the night and continued to follow up weekly as we monitored my supply and baby's weight. Katie helped me learn that some of my health history likely was the reason I was underproducing and wouldn't ever be able to pump enough to bring my supply up to breastfeed exclusively. She knows so much about breastfeeding. I had no idea about the complexity of breastfeeding. It's incredible what Katie understands from observing baby feed, assessing her movement, etcetera. We have continued to meet with Katie, and now our little one is almost two months old and thriving. I'd been having latching issues on one side; Katie kept following up on it and discovered that the baby was having some neck issues, potentially torticollis. As her neck tension wasn't improving, Katie referred us to physical therapy but gave us some alternative feeding methods until we could get her into physical therapy. One day using Katie's advice, we are already seeing improvements in baby's mood. I should have met with Katie during pregnancy so I had support set up in advance regardless of what happened; thank goodness I could see her when I did. Call her if you need help; you'll be so happy you did!

The breastfeeding journey that a person goes through postpartum is definitely not something one can…read morefully prepare for. I had a C-section and things didn't go as planned, which made it very difficult to feed my baby in the beginning. At the hospital I was scared and we ultimately had to give the baby donor milk in order to feed her. I tried getting her to latch and ended up causing damage. The hospital was so short-staffed, that they weren't able to provide a lactation consultant until the day before discharge and by then we were already 3 days into her getting donor milk via a bottle. Once I was at home, I felt hopeless. I felt like there's no way I was going to be able to breastfeed my daughter or even pump enough to provide breast milk for her. They sent me home on the agreement that I would give her formula until my milk came in. For the first two weeks of her life I was barely pumping enough to feed her. That is when I found Katie through The Lactation Network. Her lactation consultation services have helped me on this journey and it has been a night and day difference. I noticed improvement after just the first consultation appointment. It turns out, it was a combination of factors that were affecting my supply and output. Flange size, frequency of pumping, and even my mental health was affecting it. Weighted feeds also really helped to show me how much my daughter was actually consuming when latched. Throughout the entire process, Katie helped us to feel so comfortable and reassured. She never made me feel rushed or pressured to do anything at a certain pace. Now I feel more confident that I can provide for my daughter. She is also very attentive to partners being there as well. My husband is my rock and goes with me to every appointment. He felt that he was listened to and that Katie truly cared about his input as well. We have attended both in-office and at-home visits with Katie. It was very calm and serene in the office and at home Katie made us feel very comfortable with the process. If I hadn't have sought out Katie's help, I probably would have given up before I even had a chance to see what I could provide for my daughter. I am so thankful for the services that Katie have provided thus far. Even though she tells me it is me doing the work, I still couldn't have mentally and physically come this far without her help. If you are struggling with any part of your breastfeeding journey, I highly suggest reaching out to Katie for help.

Our doulas were there to help us discuss our options and give us space and guidance to make the best choices for us and our baby. It wasn't the birth we initially planned for, but it was the most empowered and in control birth I've had.

My experience with Milk & Honey was truly amazing. Nina was such a huge part of my daughter's…read morejourney, and I honestly can't thank her enough for everything she did for us. When my daughter was a baby, she was very small, and so many doctors were convinced that she needed an NG tube. Nina worked with her and helped us avoid that. She also helped my daughter work through a food aversion that had developed after so many doctors were adding and taking things away from her diet. Nina helped us get my daughter back to eating solids and, most importantly to me, she helped us get back to breastfeeding after my daughter had been taken off the breast and put on formula because of her weight. But beyond all of that, Nina was my emotional support during a really difficult time. I was constantly worried and overwhelmed with everything the doctors were telling me, and she reassured me that my daughter was okay, thriving, and that I was doing a good job as her mom. Looking back now, my daughter is healthy, happy, and thriving, and I will forever be grateful to Nina for the support and care she gave both of us. She truly made such a difference in our lives. I couldn't recommend Milk & Honey and Nina enough!

I had negative beliefs around my capabilities of breast feeding due to the experience with my first baby. I was so anxious going into my first appointment because I thought the provider I saw would be rigid in what they believe and push breast feeding as the best method even if I wasn't sure it would work for me. However, Morgan listened to me and identified my anxiety without me having to say it out right. She made sure we were always on the same page and I never once felt pushed in any direction. She changed my postpartum experience into one I felt control of. Everyone has different needs which is why I won't go into detail about mine. Just know, whatever that need is, she will take care of you. She immediatly creates a comfortable, judgement free, and inclusive environment from the moment you walk into her office. I'd also like to add that she asks every single time if she can touch me. Consent is a big deal and she treats it as such. I felt respected in every way.
