Wonderful post-partum doula. She has lots of experience and it shows. In an overwhelming time, Kim was full of calm energy and personal warmth. She took good care of me by providing healing food and drink. She also assisted with lactation concerns. Finally, she gave me some much needed rest by holding and caring for baby when needed. I keep in touch with Kim to this day and feel grateful to have found her. Highly recommend!!
