“Our timing with Rae as a postpartum doula was perhaps a little unconventional, we didn’t meet her or use her services until 6 or 7 weeks postpartum, because we had been in the NICU for 5 weeks, so I cannot speak to the immediate post-birth experience, but I have no doubt that would be as positive an encounter as the one we had with her. She helped take the load off and seemed very at ease with my twins (her first twin experience, though you wouldn’t know it), doing anything that helped me on a given day, whether it was just hanging with the girls so I could do some work, helping me with dishes and folding laundry, clipping tiny fingernails that I just didn’t always seem to get around to, or taking them on a walk. She is very compassionate and open minded, and in addition to all the help, was always very nice to talk to and I really enjoyed our conversations. For anyone going through the postpartum experience who feels they could use some extra help, support, and good company, I’d highly recommend reaching out to her”
