She was amazing. Always went above and beyond, even my older kids loved her. Wish I can keep her forever. She made postpartum very relaxing, even answering all my questions when it came to breast feedings etc. we love Malkah.

Cindy was beyond awesome with my postpartum care. From Showing me ways to breastfeed my little one , to checking my blood pressure to just checking in on us . After I gave birth my milk wasn’t in yet and Cindy made me some DELICIOUS cookies and oatmeal I swear made them come in the next day !! I will always come back with every baby I have ! Thank you so much for everything you did for me and my baby boy .

Malkah is an amazing doula! She was extremely supportive during my pregnancy and even more supportive postpartum. Being a first time mom it didn’t occur to me how much postpartum takes a toll on your body, and your mental, there are so many unexpected factors. She was there every step of the way, always available when I needed assistance, or just wanting someone to talk to. I was never alone which was my greatest fear. Also being a single mom having Malkah by my side at appointments, grocery shopping, birthing classes, pre labor, early and active labor meant everything to me!! Having a doula made my pregnancy bearable but having Malkah as my doula made it beautiful, she completely gave me a whole new level of appreciation for birth workers, she goes above and beyond. She is an outstanding human being!! I honestly could not have gotten through my whole pregnancy, birth experience, and postpartum without her looking back now. I loved my birth experience and I’m so happy that I can say that!
