  • " The difference between doing it ourselves and having Marta there was the difference between day and night. Initially we were going to just have her come a few hours in the daytime but being new parents we did not realize how difficult nights with a newborn would be. Marta made our experience much more tolerable and pleasant. I did not realize how difficult sleep deprivation would be until I went through it. I would describe having an overnight postpartum doula as being luxurious. It takes away a lot of the stress and hardship of having a newborn. Having more sleep has a big effect on your mental well being. Because I was breastfeeding, I would spend one hour, every other hour, feeding, pumping, cleaning the parts and trying to put the baby back to sleep. To save that extra time made a big difference. Marta is a super sweet person as well and did her job perfectly. I cannot name a single con about our experience with her. I will absolutely make sure to hire her for the next baby. We had her for two weeks but I would have had her for a month if she weren’t booked after us."

  • "I consider Marta our “angel doula.” As a first-time mom, living across the country from both families, of course my husband and I were feeling nervous and clueless about bringing home our first baby. Marta was the perfect person to have in our home the day we arrived home from the hospital. Coming home from the hospital can feel really overwhelming, but Marta helped us all get settled in nicely and start our new life together with confidence. I had some postpartum anxiety and she handled that with warmth, grace, and reassurance. I also was not able to move much due to some birth injuries, and she was great about instructing my husband on how to get everything set up at home, including how to properly feed, bathe, and care for our newborn. I also really appreciated how Marta was good about supporting my husband and me as a team, so that we were learning together. It was great bonding for my husband and me to learn together under Marta, and set a good foundation to start our new life as a family. I would recommend Marta to everyone I know as a postpartum doula, no question about it!"

  • "To say that Marta is a godsend would be an understatement. We worked with Marta when our son was 2-3 weeks old, and as first time (and very sleep deprived!) parents, we needed all of the help and guidance we could get. Marta is/was patient, compassionate and so knowledgeable - she taught us how to give our son his first bath, to use baby carriers, introduce a pacifier, soothing techniques, among many other things. But the best part about working with Marta was that we completely trusted her to take care of our newborn while my husband and I could get a full night's rest without any worries. Marta was always professional, and she cared deeply about us and our son. Our baby is now 11 weeks old, and I still text Marta for advice and she is kind enough to always respond! We will forever be grateful to her. If you are reading this and are about to become a parent and/or are looking for doula support, do not hesitate and take this as a sign to call Marta now!"

  • "Marta was incredible to work with. She was our overnight doula with our first baby, and she was a lifesaver. She taught us so much, from baby wearing to bathing a newborn to breastfeeding help. Her demeanor was caring without being overbearing. She always took care of the little things, and we felt so safe with her caring for our daughter. She is timely, professional, respectful, thoughtful, and kind. We recommend her fully and without any reservations!"
