I found Camila through Carrot’s recommended list of postpartum doulas, and as a first-time mom, I’ll admit I was nervous about having someone else care for my daughter. After our consultation, I had such a good feeling about Camila, and that’s where it all began.
We had Camila with us for six weeks, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better postpartum doula. Her experience with babies is evident in everything she does. She cared for my daughter as if she were her own—with so much patience, love, and understanding, even through the most restless nights.
Beyond caring for my daughter, Camila was also an incredible source of support for me. She gave me so many helpful tips and advice as a new mom, and I’m incredibly grateful for the confidence she helped give me during those early weeks. She was not only our doula but also became a friend who was there to help me navigate the ups and downs of new motherhood.
Knowing my daughter was in such capable and loving hands allowed me to truly rest at night, which was invaluable during those first six weeks.
I’m so grateful we found Camila and would highly recommend her to any new mom looking for compassionate, experienced, and trustworthy postpartum support. She was such an important part of our transition into parenthood, and we’ll always appreciate everything she did for our family.

We had a wonderful experience working with Camila as our postpartum doula. She is incredibly sweet, sincere, flexible, and supportive. As my due date got closer, she proactively checked in on me and offered help, which made me feel truly cared for. When I was admitted to the hospital, she was consistently available and ready to support us which gives me so much peace of mind. Camila worked beautifully with our entire family, including my mom and my husband. She genuinely cared about our baby, and we always felt very comfortable with her. She brought a warm, calming presence into our home and quickly became someone we trusted.What I appreciated most is that Camila offers guidance from her experience while still respecting each family’s preferences and way of doing things. She gave us helpful advice on sleep routines, bedtime and wake-up routines, swaddling, bathing, breastfeeding, and pumping. When I considered pumping to get more overnight rest, she offered practical guidance. Later, when I had blockages and wanted to return to exclusive breastfeeding, she was 100% supportive and helped me work toward that goal.Camila is also very reliable and punctual. Despite she lives far from us, we never had any issues with timing. She was always flexible, dependable, and easy to communicate with.Beyond her knowledge and professionalism, Camila is simply lovely to be around. She is like a friend to the whole family (she got us the best egg tarts when she heard that I like egg tarts) than just someone helping us postpartum. We truly enjoyed working with her and would highly recommend Camila to any family who has the opportunity to work with her.

We are so grateful for the support Camila provided as our postpartum doula. She is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, which gave us so much peace of mind as new parents. Thanks to her help, we were able to get great nights of rest knowing our baby was in expert hands.
Camila went above and beyond to set us up for success. She provided us with a baby feeding and sleeping schedule—both day and night—that gave us a clear framework to follow for our child’s healthy growth. She also taught us many little tricks and soothing techniques that our baby really enjoys, which have made daily care so much easier. On top of that, she shared valuable guidance on breastfeeding and latching, which made a big difference in our confidence and comfort.
Beyond her care, Camila always took the time to explain what she was doing and why, making sure we felt prepared to take things on our own. Her calm presence, thoughtful teaching, and genuine care made all the difference in those early weeks.
We recommend Camila without a doubt to any family looking for postpartum support—she’s truly wonderful.

We loved having Camila as our postpartum doula! She helped us immensely during the first 6 weeks of our daughter’s life. Camila was present from our first night home and gave us loving support, confidence, and advice. We were so grateful to have her guidance during this emotionally and physically demanding part of our lives. We highly recommend Camila!

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.
