"I had the pleasure of having Marie-Andree as a postpartum doula after the birth of my son. I knew Marie already before the birth and she came over a few times, helped me get the house ready for the baby, take care of things in advance which really helped me with some anxieties i had with this. We also cooked (or Marie cooked while I sat and watched) to freeze in advance. After the birth, Marie's visits allowed for so many things in our family. My husband could leave with our older child, knowing that someone was with me at home, we knew we would have a warm meal ready that day, I received a massage, the laundry would be done. The practical and emotional support that Marie gave me and our entire family was exactly what we needed in the first and extremely important 6 weeks of our life as a family of 4. Even though I had family support, I decided to take a postpartum doula once a week to give myself and us a different kind of care that i felt my family couldn't give. The perspective of a non-family member is different and I wanted that for us as well. I am so grateful for the visits we shared with Marie-Andree and for the part that she played in my postpartum recovery and healing. Thank you Marie."
