Susy has been such a blessing for our family. She is very responsive and given us a great plan to get our daughter sleep on the right track!

— Sophia Champieux

Susy is simply priceless. We were so incredibly fortunate to find her - especially in light of having very strong views on a child's development journey, right from the start. What makes her very unique is the combination of being extremely well informed and educated, along with a natural and authentic love for babies. She is compassionate, professional and serious about what she does all at the same time. She has made a lasting impact on our lives - especially our daughter. HIGHLY recommend her.

Susy is an absolute angel. She brings such love and care into your home. I felt like a mess our first night home from the hospital and Susy took such wonderful care of all of us. She is so knowledgeable, kind, and consistent. She provided such helpful information with love and kindness. She is so easy to get along with and trust immediately. It is obvious she loves what she does and loves each of her babies so well. Our family loves Susy!

— Liz Bolar

Susy is what we call a baby whisperer! She has been such a godsend to our family. Of course her physical presence keeping a watchful eye over our baby so I can get more sleep was life-changing, but more than that was the wisdom she shared over the course of the three months she worked for our family. She has multiple degrees and certifications spanning every relevant topic pertaining to a baby and child development, and it helped us learn so much about how to raise our sweet girl. I know she will stay a part of our family for years to come, and we will forever be grateful for the confidence she gave me as a new mom.

— Bianca Rae

I highly recommend Susy and her team for postpartum support! We primarily worked with CC who was such a welcome addition to our family. This was my second baby but first time working with a postpartum doula; my first was a terrible sleeper, so I knew I needed some extra help with my second. CC did overnights with us, and she was incredibly hands on, attentive, and loving to our newborn daughter and to me! CC and Susy also both provided a ton of emotional support as well as breastfeeding and sleep education. Andrea, who helps on the admin side, was also incredibly kind and flexible as we worked through paperwork, logistics, scheduling, and extending our contract when we weren’t ready to lose CC! We are so grateful for CC helping us get through the fourth trimester and setting our family up for success!

— Gabrielle Arons

We are so thankful to Susy and her team (Kelly & Delmy) for their knowledge, kindness and support with our newborn son! With them, we knew he was in great hands. Susy was also flexible and accommodating when we had to make schedule modifications last minute, which was so appreciated! We will be happily recommending these ladies to anyone looking for newborn care support in the future! Thank you so much Susy!

— Devon Caracciolo

I don’t even have the words to describe how grateful I am for Susy. From the very beginning, she has been a source of knowledge, support, and genuine care. Her product reviews were a lifesaver, her expertise is unmatched, and she brought such a calming, reassuring presence into our home. This is our fourth baby, and with Susy and her team by my side, I’ve experienced the smoothest, most positive postpartum recovery — both mentally and physically. They cared for our baby with such love while also making sure I was cared for as a mom. Susy truly feels like family, and I will forever be thankful for the peace and confidence she gave us during this special season of life.

— Jill Carleton Bondy

I am so grateful I found Susy! I contacted her a month or so prior to giving birth to set up care at night. Susy was there for me and supported me by answering any questions I had regarding anything pregnancy or post partum. She is a plethora of knowledge. She had someone ready to help the very night I came home from the hospital. They focused on me and my recovery just as much as my baby and I am so grateful. I worked with Susy and Cici and both were warm, positive, kind, patient, and everything you'd want and need to help bridge that tough time between pregnancy and birth and post partum. Cannot recommend Baby and Doula Care enough!

— Nikki Stout

Susy Caracas has been instrumental in my postpartum recovery. She will forever have my admiration and respect. The moment Susy picked up my phone call she became an angel in my life providing help and support at a new mother’s most vulnerable moments. My husband, baby boy and I are thriving as a family and I wholeheartedly believe it is all because of Susy’s tremendous support at each twist and turn. I am forever grateful to Susy and her team.

— Abigail Goodman

We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Susy who supported our family a night nanny. From the very first evening, Susy brought a calming presence into our home. She is professional, nurturing, and endlessly reassuring. She cared for our newborn with such expertise and gentle attention allowing us to get the rest we so desperately needed in those early weeks. We always felt completely confident that our baby was in the very best hands. Beyond her work overnight, Susy was a phenomenal resource for all things baby related including sleep routines, feeding support, health concerns, and calming techniques. Susy always made me feel cared for as new mom. She is the ideal mix of warmth and knowledge. She never rushed us and always made us feel empowered in our choices. If you’re lucky enough to have Susy support your family, you will be in the best hands. She was a gift to us and we love her very much!

— Anna M. Boyle

Susy is a kind, enthusiastic and conscientious newborn care specialist. We relied on Susy to take care of our newborn for four months. She did an exceptional job looking after him and ensuring he was properly cared for, properly fed and that he developed the correct sleep patterns. She was patient and took the time to inform us of what needed to be done as we began to parent including how to bathe him, how to feed, how to change, how to swaddle and put down, the correct exercises to do with our newborn, and so much more. She exudes confidence in her work and has a naturally warm demeanor. She provides honest feedback and is 100% reliable. Susy provided us with invaluable tools, resources and intelligence that we will forever be grateful for. To this day we consult with her and check in from time to time. She feels like an extended member of our family.

— Chris Heywood

Susy is seriously the best postpartum doula!! Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and caring but she offers 24/7 support answering calls, texts anything you need even when she's not with you during the day. She took such great care of me and my little boy and taught me so much in the fourth trimester and she's become basically apart of my family! Her services also include connecting with a network of other doulas, nanny's and childcare support, I could not speak more highly of her and her business! Just had my second baby and so happy to have her back with me during the nights to help me recover and adjust to having two kids!

— Nicki Stone

Susy was amazing to work with. Her care for the baby and for the parents was beyond anything we could have ever asked for. She was kind, loving, knowledgeable, and put everyone at ease in all circumstances. She is a true blessing, a real professional and irreplaceable to the parents she worked for. We would recommend Susy to anyone and look forward to any future opportunities to work with her again!

— Christina Papasedero

Susy was beyond anything we could have ever hoped for. She was knowledgeable, kind, loving, and easy to have around. She is always one step ahead in caring properly for the baby and does everything with a caring and gentle touch. She is a true angel and there is not one thing we would change about our experience working with her. She is amazing!

— Christina P

I cannot recommend Susy highly enough! From the moment we connected, she brought a sense of calm, reassurance, and expertise that made all the difference in our postpartum journey. She took the time to truly understand our needs, answer all our questions, and provide unwavering emotional and physical support. Susy is an invaluable source of knowledge and encouragement, making the transition into parenthood smoother. She showed so much kindness and patience, ensuring we felt supported both emotionally and physically. If you're looking for a compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated doula, look no further than Susy! We are forever grateful for her care and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for the best experience possible!

I am beyond grateful for the incredible support my doula Susy Caracas and her team provided me and my baby girl ten months ago. As a single mom, those first six months were both beautiful and challenging, but Susy was there every step of the way, guiding, educating, and offering unwavering support. From late night feedings to understanding my baby’s needs, she gave me the confidence and knowledge to navigate motherhood with love and assurance. Her kindness, patience, and expertise made all the difference in my journey. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to be by my side. Thank you for your dedication and care, you are a blessing...we love you !

— Cathy WD

Susy has been a God send for our family. She is so knowledgeable and really answered all of our questions that arose. She is not only great with our son, but she has been amazing with us parents, as well. Highly recommend Susy and her services!

— Alexandra C

Susy is quite literally the biggest blessing to our family in the post partum months! We used her services for our first son in 2020 & then called her as soon as I found out I was pregnant with my second. Susy is truly the sweetest, kindest, most genuine person & her love for caring for young families in the 4th trimester & beyond is so evident! She truly loves what she does & it shows! I could never say enough about Susy & how much she has helped our family!

— Jessica Trout

To the world she’s Susy but to my family she’s our angel!!! Cliche but TRUTH! She has been everything you can ask for during the tough times and the great times of having a newborn. The last day at the hospital wasn’t a great one for us and as soon as I got home Susy was there to calm my nerves and emotions. She also helped me through my breastfeeding journey, which was a goal of mine. We worked all day and night to teach my body to produce breast milk. Susy is knowledgeable, experienced, professional and very trustworthy. Her support and advice was everything and more!! And the most important, she helped us through our journey of getting to know our baby’s wants and needs. It was a joy having her in our home and we will forever be grateful ❤️

— Yainee Alonso

Susy and her team are knowledgeable, experienced, professional, and her duties exceeded my expectations on many levels. My husband and I have twins, and are first time parents, and Susy and her team consistently assist my husband and I with suggestions, recommendations, guidance and direction. Our investment with Susy and her team has been so worth it, and we even extended her contract FOUR times!!!! She always makes sure to keep the babies' best interests in mind, and never over steps her boundaries with us as the parents...even our dogs love her! It was so important for us that we gave our babies the best, and Susy and her team ARE indeed THE BEST doula's out there!

— Diana Hardin

Susy is knowledgable, professional and a delight to be around. My husband and I trust her completely. She gave us peace of mind in those first nights we were back from the hospital. She helped us set a routine that we were confident and able to deal with. I would highly recommend her. She’s wonderful and babies love her!

— Jamie Adams

Susy and her team are incredible and I cannot recommend her enough. My son was born early and had a number of minor but stressful health issues in the first couple months — Susy helped us navigate all of it, and brought a sense of calm, reassurance, and joy into our home. Susy not only managed to start helping me out earlier than planned, but her insights, assistance, and upbeat perspective were so valuable and appreciated during the first days and weeks at home. She made herself available for questions from both my husband and me, at all hours (even when she wasn’t on the clock). Susy provided us with tips and ideas on everything from nursery setup, daytime feeding schedules, pumping (and pumping schedules), how to take baby’s temperature, questions to ask our pediatrician, products to consider that were specific to issues we faced, and —perhaps most notably — how to get mom enough sleep! For the times Susy wasn’t able to be with us, she arranged for another newborn care specialist to help us out, and she was also excellent — we’re so grateful to both of them. Our baby continues to be a great sleeper, and I owe so much of that to Susy and team. If I have another baby, I will definitely be calling again!

— Sarah Shtylman

Forever grateful to Susy and her help with our fourth baby, Oliver. She was a blessing in so many ways, and the best decision we could have made in welcoming a new baby to the family. Her sweet, knowledgeable, capable and calming presence was a comfort and help beyond measure in transitioning into babyhood again- and in helping us be better, more well rested parents to our big kids as well. Could not thank her enough or recommend her with more enthusiasm!

— Jessie Harrison

Susy is nothing but the best! We have a 4w old baby and she came to our house a few weeks before he was born taught us some baby basics, helped with essential products to buy too. Once we got home from the hospital, she spent a few hours with us and helped with our setup, taught us baby essentials with the baby this time and gave us tips for the first few weeks. We plan to continue to call her from time to time like 1 month, 2 months.. and every time we feel she can help us understand the changes that are about to come. I highly recommend SuSy and her team.

— Camila Blosfeld

Susy has been more than we could have imagined when we hired her for postpartum doula care. She is an expert, and so kind and compassionate. She clearly loves her work, and the results speak for themselves. Our baby has a routine now and is sleeping so well. I could not recommend her more.

— Jake Rogers

Ms. Suzy is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She always answers my questions in detail, and as a first-time momma, I have many. I highly recommend her.

— Kira

We are so lucky to have worked with Susy. She helped us with our baby girl early on and still helps with her once and a while now. Getting sleep is so key to adjusting to parenthood. My husband and I would get so excited to see her. It was like a weight was lifted the second she arrived. We call her the baby whisperer and learned so much from her. My dogs are also big fans of Susy. Truly we feel very fortunate my doctor recommended her and connected us. Definitely look forward to having her around when we have another baby.

— kristin ajer

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Susy. She was recommended to us through my OB, and we couldn’t have found a kinder, more knowledgeable night nurse to help us with our baby. She has a peaceful presence and counseled me as a new mom as much as she took care of my newborn. Susy also has so much experience and was able to spot symptoms for our pediatrician and calm us when we were nervous. We will be heartbroken to say goodbye when our contract is over.

— Alexandra Hart

Susy's help after our first baby girl was born has been priceless. With her help, advice, and encouragement I was able to breastfeed my baby for 20 months though at the beginning I thought I would not make it at all! Her professional knowledge and support in good and hard times made our days as new parents much brighter not to mention restful as our baby was in great hands throughout the night. I cannot recommend her enough!

— Justina Z.

In the 3 months we have known Susy, she has truly become part of our family. Susy has a natural gift with babies; she instantly knows how to soothe and comfort them. She is very knowledgeable on different techniques to help the baby and the parents through the night.

— Ally C.

Susy is amazing! She is professional, friendly and knowledgeable. She helped us with our baby ‘s needs and schedule. She is trustworthy and reliable. We were able to sleep during the night knowing that Susy was taking the best care of our baby since he was only 1 week old. Her positive energy made us happy and reassured when she was at home. I don't know how we would have done without her. We would definitely recommend her!

— Raffaella Ferro

Susy is experienced, kind and intelligent. She is very quick to develop a plan based on a child's particular character. My wife and I were able to immediately gain a sense of trust and confidence in Susy and her work.

— Nathan Frankel

Susana is absolutely amazing. She was patient, kind, so knowledgeable when I needed help. She made everything so much easier and she is such a calming presence. Because of her and her assistance, I was able to be the best mom that I could for all of my children. She helped me navigate the postpartum period with such ease, our family is forever grateful for her.

— Elizabeth Bradley

I met Susy and we are so happy to have her around, and no matter if we are in a different country now, I can still always rely on her with her knowledge and professionalism through the distance.

— Martha Pardo

Susy is wonderful!! She’s so caring and attentive to newborns and infants. She has a ton of knowledge and even taught us a few things as second time parents. She’s very trustworthy and reliable and, as a new mom, I was very comfortable having her in our home. Highly recommend!!!!
