I had the pleasure of working with Shannon in the fall of 2023 until the delivery of my first child in January 2024. As a first time mother, it was so helpful having Shannon guide me through what to expect during all stages of labor, delivery and the 4th trimester. Shannon is incredibly knowledgeable, patient and kind. Her calming nature really came in handy in the delivery room! With Shannon’s knowledge and support, me and my husband had the tools to advocate for ourselves during the prenatal appointments and in the delivery room. Overall I had a really positive birthing experience and I believe that Shannon’s presence and support contributed to that. I would not hesitate to recommend Shannon’s services to any person seeking support on their birthing journey.

"Shannon was an excellent postpartum doula that really helped my husband and I adjust to our new normal, within my son's first month of life. Her experience and extensive knowledge of newborns not only supported us as we navigated his overnights and feedings but she shared helpful tips and insights that we continue to use. Her guidance for his feeding and sleep routine gave us comfort and overall calmness in navigating the new experience of having a newborn. We would definitely recommend working with Shannon."

"My husband, Mark, and I were very fortunate to have Shannon's support for overnight care for almost four months for our newborn son. She was everything you want in a doula: warm, professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. Shannon provided a safe space for the whole family, including my older son, during a vulnerable time. I immediately trusted her to look after my son and very much looked forward to the nights she was with us, as it meant extra time for Mark and I to sleep and recover. Shannon has a calm and positive demeanor that is exactly what we needed, especially in those initial weeks. She is also a wonderful listener and sounding board. Shannon always held space for me to share my experience and the challenges I was encountering, and intuitively knew how and when to provide thoughtful suggestions and ideas. It's clear that her knowledge is vast about lactation and feeding, swaddling, sleep patterns, GERD/reflux, and other critical topics. We cannot recommend Shannon enough for anyone looking for postpartum doula support! She is truly passionate about the care she provides to babies and their parents. Any family that hires her is lucky to have her!" Thank you again for everything! -Flora & Mark
