After experiencing an unplanned c-section with my first born, I was nervous about welcoming my second. Besides the recovery process, the sleepless nights made postpartum an incredibly lonely journey. I knew I needed help the second time around – enter Madison from Serene Moments. I wasn’t familiar with a doula. All I knew was overnight care equaled more sleep. Madison was so much more than that. Madison took the time to get to know what was important to us and what we wanted from this experience. After each visit, she would send us notes from the night. They included every bottle, diaper change, fussiness, sleep cue, etc. — she really got to know my baby’s personality and shared helpful tips and tricks so that we could seamlessly transition care during the day (she was also available by text during the day in case we had questions or needed advice). Madison not only gave me peace of mind that my baby was safe and cared for, but she also provided us with the tools for future sleep success once her time with us was over. When that time did come, the anxiety that I had with my first born wasn’t as palpable. I knew I was in a good place mentally, emotionally, and physically so I could be more present with my baby and actually enjoy the newborn stage. For that, I can’t thank Madison enough. I would highly recommend Serene Moments to every new mom.
