Natalya is warm, supportive, and a complete professional. My husband and I were anxious about being first time parents and the birth process, and Natalya helped us every step of the way. From our first at-home class together, Natalya listened to our needs and was patient as she helped prepare us as a team. She was so knowledgeable and gave us detailed explanations and demonstrations. When it came to deliver, after going through a marathon of multiple inductions, Natalya went above and beyond to make us feel supported and comfortable at the hospital. Nurses even commented about how great she was. When our only option left was a cesarean section, she jumped right into being my support person and stayed by my side during the surgery, even though this ask was outside of her responsibilities and previous experience. She did so wonderfully, and I am so thankful for her calm presence and encouragement during that challenging time. However, her support did not end there. Natalya continued to follow up with us to see how baby and I were doing weeks and months after her contract had ended. I especially appreciate how she checked in about my mental health and offered solutions for the challenges we were facing. It is clear that Natalya truly cares for her clients and is so passionate about her work.

If you are on the fence about hiring a doula, know that Natalya is the best there is and she will make your journey feel special and much less stressful. We are so thankful for her role in welcoming our baby girl to the world!

It is difficult to put into words just how special Natalya is – as a person and as a doula!

Natalya started with us and our twin boys on our second night home from the hospital and stayed with us right through until they were 5 months old. Natalya is an extremely warm and kind person and has such a special way with babies and has a particularly skilled way of working with twins. From the moment we met her, she instilled confidence in us that our boys would be in very capable and attentive hands overnight so that we could rest well. She always listened attentively to our boys’ cues and came to understand their patterns intimately, helping to educate us as well. As a new mom, I learned so much from Natalya and would look forward to our nightly conversations and little teaching sessions on various baby topics such as how to bathe a newborn, baby wearing, how to dress baby appropriately for weather, and so many other topics. If you have the chance to work with Natalya, and certainly if you have twins, consider yourself very fortunate. She will always hold a very special place in our hearts and we will miss her dearly.

Best,

Caitlin
