  • "Finding someone you can trust with your whole heart during the vulnerable postpartum period is rare. Sharonda has been that person and more. Her warmth and wisdom created a sanctuary during those challenging early days. After an unplanned c-section, her hug was a lifeline. And her intuitive understanding of our needs as new parents, coupled with her expertise in newborn care, made all the difference. She has offered us a fountain of knowledge, guiding us through breastfeeding, baby care, and postpartum health issues and sharing helpful resources with us. Her ability to soothe our baby was nothing short of magical. Our baby adores her. We felt complete peace of mind leaving our little one in her care. And the extra sleep we were able to get helped us to show up better as parents. It’s difficult to accurately express our gratitude in words. We’ve been truly lucky to have found such an extraordinary caregiver in Sharonda. Our family - including our pets :) - is going to miss her regular presence, but we know that she’ll always have a special place in our lives and our hearts."

  • “Simply put, Sharonda was a light and a guide during the confusing, bleary-eyed days of early parenthood. She navigated us through feeding struggles, supported us as new parents and grew our confidence piece by piece. Every night, her warmth and kindness were a welcome respite from the chaos of the day. We joked the beginning of each night was like a masterclass consultation with Sharonda in all-things baby. Anything we worried or wondered about - she always seemed to know what to do. She was so reassuring to us as first time parents."

    A&A

  • "Sharonda is a special human being and incredibly gifted at the work she does. From the minute I met Sharonda when interviewing postpartum doulas I knew she was the one I wanted by my side when we brought our daughter home. She was caring and invested in my family from day 1, checking in frequently in the months leading up to my baby’s due date and made a point to visit our home and meet us in person before our daughter was born. I was immediately comfortable with Sharonda and felt her passion shine through in every interaction we have had. Sharonda was there with us the first night we came home from the hospital and for most nights in the first six weeks of our daughter’s life. There are few people in the world I would be comfortable bringing in to my world during such a vulnerable, intimate time and Sharonda made it easy."

  • "Sharonda became a confidante and a sanity-check to my husband and I during these first pivotal weeks when you are being bombarded with information and strong opinions from every direction all while learning how to be a parent for the first time. Sharonda provided a safe space to be honest and vulnerable and never had any judgement whatsoever. We really trusted her opinion and always appreciated her perspective. She was a deeply calming presence during what could be a chaotic time and it made a world of difference to have her support. I cannot recommend working with Sharonda enough. She is an incredible human and is extremely good at what she does. She has incredibly loving spirit and she not only cares deeply about the babies she supports but the parents as well. She made this time in our lives extremely special and we will never forget everything she did for us. We love you Sharonda!"

    Emma

  • "Initially we worried it might feel disruptive having a stranger in our home, helping to care for our newborn - but it took less than 10 seconds for us to feel immediately comfortable with Sharonda. Give yourself and your partner the gift of an experienced caretaker who will support you and nourish you as new parents. It will truly be the best investment you make post-baby. We cannot recommend her highly enough."

    A&A

  • "I cannot express enough how grateful my family is for the incredible support we received from Sharonda during the early weeks with our newborn. From the moment she stepped into our home, she brought a sense of calm and reassurance that we desperately needed. What truly set Sharonda apart was her unwavering dedication and kindness. She was always punctual and took her responsibilities seriously, allowing my husband and me to get the rest we needed. Her gentle presence provided a sense of security, and we trusted her completely with our baby's care. We wholeheartedly recommend Sharonda to any new parents in need of nighttime support. She is not only an expert in her field but also a genuinely caring and compassionate individual who has made a positive and lasting impact on our family. We are so grateful for her dedication and care."

  • "As a first time mom, I didn't realize how much support I would actually need postpartum. I almost didn't take on the opportunity, but I'm so glad I did. With all of the influx of information on social media and family, you can feel overwhelmed. Not sure what's "normal".  Sharonda was the comforting aunt in your family to hold your hand and comfort you throughout those initial whirlwind weeks. She always made sure to check on me, mama, first. Reminding me that although we love our babies, we have to make sure mama is okay first. Making sure I took time for myself so that I could be better for everyone in the household. We were able to laugh and find humor in the crazy, as well as soaking up all the amazing feels a newborn brings. I would recommend her to anyone and am so thankful she held my hand through my first ride becoming a mama. :)"

    Emma

  • "We learned so much from her about caring for our baby while also getting the help we needed so that we could prioritize our own rest and recovery as new parents. As new parents, this was truly invaluable. She was like our fairy godmother, and I could not recommend her more highly."

    Alysha

  • "Sharonda was such an asset to our experience as new parents. Her recommendations were spot on and I attribute her support with my postpartum healing. She helped with breastfeeding and getting us into a routine so we didn’t burn ourselves out but most importantly she was knowledgeable, educational and empathetic which is what we didn’t know we needed. I highly recommend her services and if given the chance I definitely would’ve extended her support; she was excellent!!"
