Having Camila as our postpartum doula gave us the opportunity to fully enjoy the magical experience of becoming first time parents to our beautiful daughter. We could not have asked for anything more - she was incredibly trustworthy, communicative, flexible, and compassionate. Within minutes of meeting her on the first night, we felt immediately at ease and knew she would be such an immense support over the following weeks as we adjusted to newborn life. We cannot thank her enough! TLDR: Don’t miss out on hiring Camila!

Deciding to invest in a night doula was a big deal for us. We are both in healthcare, and our finances were limited, especially with all the new costs of impending parenthood. However, we knew I was going to be having a c-section, and decided it was worth taking the plunge and making the investment. It was really important to me that if we were going to use a postpartum doula, they not only were someone we trusted and had good chemistry with, but that they could really offer expertise that we could learn from with each visit. When I met with Camila, I really felt that from her. She was kind and approachable but also seemed confident about the job and experienced. Once our daughter arrived, we were blown away by how smart it was that we decided to do this. I ended up having a complicated birth, and we really leaned on Camila's support in those first few weeks. I looked forward to her every visit, and she always put me at ease. On top of that, it was clear she made my newborn daughter feel comfortable and secure. She was also great with our dogs, who loved her (always a good sign dog people!). I would make this investment 100 times over. One of the most compassionate things I did for myself as a new mom. Highly recommend, you can trust Camila with your most precious new arrival. You won't regret it.

Camila came highly recommended from our neighborhood Mom community group and I count my lucky stars that she was available when my first was born. We hired Camila for the first 5 weeks with my daughter and she was an absolute godsend. Loving, caring, very knowledgeable, and in tune with my daughters needs and feelings. Camila taught us techniques on how to best bathe our baby, change her diaper, swaddle, get her to stop contact napping, helped us identify her tongue tie, and the list goes on. After only 5 weeks, our very fussy and clingy baby was sleeping 4+ hour stretches in her Snoo thanks to our baby whisperer Camila and the knowledge we gained from her.

Camila helped take care of my daughter for more than 3 months from the time she was 1 month old to 4 months. She did overnights as well as daytime care. It was a true pleasure to have her in our home & taking care of our baby. Camila was very gentle, loving & calm. She truly cared about my daughter & this made me feel very safe leaving them together. My daughter really looked forward to seeing her because they genuinely had a good time & Camila is so sweet. Camila made my life easier by helping with additional things like: labeling & storing milk, washing pump & bottle parts, washing & folding laundry, and cleaning up Evie’s room. She’s is also very observant & noticed when my baby had a rash behind her ears so we were able to get it treated right away. Whoever works with Camila next is very lucky!

My husband and I originally weren't going to hire any postpartum help, but we were convinced after talking to many of our friends. We only had a month to find a postpartum doula and even though Camila had a client already, we were so fortunate she agreed to incorporate us into her schedule for the first three weeks of our little one's lives. As first time parents, having Camila's support was priceless. She answered all our questions, showed us her tips and tricks with a newborn, and handled all the care of our little one at night. Having Camila overnight was the most valuable part of everything as it allowed me to get some extra time to rest. Since I was still trying to increase my milk supply, it was nice to not have to worry about cleaning pump parts after a middle of the night feed and pump session. It also allowed my husband to get a full nights rest so he could help the next day which allowed an extra nap session for me. I can't believe we almost decided not to have a postpartum night doula because Camila was so invaluable in the beginning of our parenthood journey.

After many evenings researching, and having met with several excellent candidates, we decided to go with Camila as a newborn care specialist for our first child. Neither my wife nor I have close family living nearby, so we thought we might need some support in the first few months. As things turned out, our baby was born 5 weeks premature, and — even though our contract wasn’t meant to start for a while yet — Camila made sure to be available for our first night home when we sorely needed a friendly and reassuring face (and helping pair of hands). Over the next 12 weeks, Camila continued to be a lifesaver. She has a wealth of knowledge and is generous in sharing it (always while being careful to respect boundaries and never, ever, feeling pushy or judgmental). Camila truly cares for the children she looks after. Even during her off-days she would text us to find out how pediatrician visits went, or to send links that might be relevant to something she noticed the night before. She also has a great support network, which meant that one night when my wife and I unexpectedly needed some extra support, Camila was able to hook us up with someone within half an hour, taking time out from her family vacation to help us. (The person she introduced us to was also great.) We have no hesitation in recommending Camila as an experienced, loving, and easy-to-work with specialist.
