“Sara and her team were invaluable to us as we navigated the first few months at home with newborn triplets! She has such a calming presence and never shied away from a hard night or difficult situation. She cared for our three babies overnight including feedings, diaper changes and bottle prep/washing, which gave us some much needed rest at night. She’s very reliable and always checked in on us (physically and emotionally) as parents at the beginning of the evening. Sara is so skilled at what she does as a doula but is also an amazing friend, we looked forward to every night that she spent with our family! If you are considering doula, Sara is the best of the best!”

"Sara is amazing! She helped me take care of my tiny preemie son after his NICU stay. As a first time mom, I was terrified and exhausted. But Sara came in and showed me the ropes. She taught me all the essentials and answered all of my rudimentary questions with no judgement. She gave me the confidence to take care of my little one and provided a much needed comfort during this overwhelming time. Sara is truly the best and I would highly recommend her!”

"Our experience with this company and our doula Caroline was amazing. I am a 3rd time mom and was super anxious of how I was going to be able to do it all with 3 young kids and my husband getting no paternity leave. Caroline started when our daughter was only 1 week old and she was the biggest blessing for our family. Our daughter was very particular about anyone holding her other than myself and putting her to sleep and Caroline was like the baby whisperer that took over at night after hours of trying to get Annabelle down before Caroline arrived. Caroline was always successful in getting Annabelle to sleep! Caroline was punctual, communicative throughout the night, and a shoulder to cry on during a very vulnerable postpartum time. I was so sad when her contract was up! Sara was also amazing to work with when I reached out at 3am in the hospital with Annabelle requesting information on her services. She got everything set up so fast and made me feel at ease with everything! Anyone considering a postpartum doula you won’t regret it.

“I used Grace and Genesis for postpartum night doula services after having my first daughter and I cannot recommend them enough! Sara was great to introduce to what a doula service is, how it is works, and helped me get reimbursed through my employer (via Carrot fertility). Lyndsay and Abby were both simply amazing, they taught me so much in the tough early days coming home, and I can’t imagine my journey without them! They were so kind, helpful, and patient.. and I hope they can help me again when I have another baby!”

“Highly highly recommend this company! From the beginning, working with Sara was so smooth on figuring out exactly the help i needed after i deliver my baby to pairing me up with the BEST postpartum doula, Lyndsay. Lyndsay helped us so much with breastfeeding tips, caring for my newborn, helping with dishes and laundry, and playing with my 4yr old. Lyndsay has a calming nature about her that automatically makes you feel at ease. Im so grateful to have had her help for 2 months!”

“Sara came into our family to help us postpartum with our tiny twins who needed to be fed every 2 hours for months on end. I was broken from a long labor with so much swelling and no sleep. She stepped in and helped me with feedings, breastfeeding, and a shoulder to lean on. Her calm demeanor, positive attitude, and deep care for mothers, women, and babies is felt the minute you meet her. Long after we needed an extra hand, Sara has become a part of the family. I've had the pleasure of being a reference on multiple occasions where I am given the opportunity to gush about her and her services. Thank you, Sara!”

My husband and I recommend Grace & Genesis Doula Services to anyone we know expecting a child. Sara and Caroline were with us as Night Doulas shortly after coming home from the hospital with our second child, and they made this postpartum experience much easier than the first. The extra sleep, faster healing, and helpful advice in the middle of the night was priceless. Even with a breastfed baby, it allowed me to maximize how much I slept by not having to change diapers and get my baby back to sleep. Getting enough rest during the nights also allowed me to enjoy spending time with my toddler during the days. By utilizing the services frequently at the start (5nights/week) I believe our baby developed great sleep habits and is already a great sleeper by 2 months (also priceless!). My advice to any expecting mom is to utilize a Night Doula, and the professionalism and quality of care from Sara and her employees is impossible to beat.Sara has been with my daughter since she was a 2 week old preemie, she’s now 8 months old. She not only cared for her, but was an excellent support system for me as a first time mom. She is always available for comfort and guidance. I would highly recommend Sara to any parent, she’s very knowledgeable, nurturing and trustworthy. She has the ability to tailor to the needs of all of her clients.”

Working with Dana was the best thing that happened to our family postpartum! I had some medical complications after delivery and having her there the night we got home from the hospital was absolutely amazing. I totally trusted her, and felt so supported in my first time mom journey. She was easy to work with and so fun to chat with during late night feeds. I absolutely recommend working with G&G!”

"Sara and Caroline were our postpartum doulas and I cannot thank them enough for all their help, guidance, experience, and expertise shared during those first few, very challenging weeks. Both Sara and Caroline helped me tremendously with breastfeeding, knowledge on baby products, and sleep schedules which has helped our little one with sleeping through the night since week 6. They were a shoulder to cry on, a friend to listen, and an understanding heart through challenges with a newborn and made my transition into motherhood beautiful. If you are looking for postpartum care, I highly recommend Grace and Genesis.

"We have the pleasure to still be working with Sara now! Sara started as a postpartum doula helping with overnights when our daughter was just 2 weeks old. While her focus has remained dedicated to Norah (now 13 weeks old) through all of our feeding issues, Sara also asks us how we are doing. In this very vulnerable first few months as new parents, and while family/friends have not been able to be present with us due to Covid-19, Sara has been invaluable. She is invested. When Sara knows we have a doctor's appointment, she cares enough to ask. Sara has now shifted to helping us during the day and as we find our new normal as a family of three, we take huge comfort that Sara is here with us!”
