Raqell provided overnight care for our newborn, and she was an absolute lifesaver. Having her in our home gave us complete peace of mind knowing our baby was in such gentle, knowledgeable, and reliable hands. She was attentive to every detail, supported our routines, and gave us the gift of much-needed, restful sleep. I cannot recommend her enough to any family looking for exceptional, evidence-based newborn care!
