Testimonials

"Just wanted to say a big thank you to Gricette and NEDS for helping us through the first few months of parenthood! Gricette was such an asset for us as we made the transition to parents. Our daughter got such great care (and we got extra sleep!)—truly helped my postpartum experience immensely. Gricette was such a joy to have around and we learned so many tips and tricks from her. Truly a huge kudos for the group you’ve put together and for matching us up! We will miss her greatly but also feel much more equipped to be on our own. I cannot recommend your services and Gricette enough!"

"Just wanted to let you know that Doreen is absolutely wonderful! She is a wealth of knowledge, there was so much I didn’t know as a first time mom that she has shared that has made my life easier (as easy as it can be with twins at least) and the girls are capable of sleeping 6-7 hours at night now (they don’t always but they have!) I feel like a new person and much less overwhelmed caring for two babies. Thanks so much!"

"We loved working with Bryn in the early weeks of postpartum. She was extremely helpful, supportive and kind as we navigated first time parenthood. Our son loved her and we really appreciated teaching us about bathing, diaper rash, nursing, and any other concerns that came up. Thank you for helping us build confidence as parents and get some rest."

"Kate has been absolutely incredible and we are forever grateful for all the support and advice she’s given us, we’d recommend her to everyone."

Mom in Needham
"Amy is amazing! Our daughter has never slept so well in the past 2 months. She must be a magician because I’m still flabbergasted. Also, her notes that she put in our Huckleberry app are great - I woke up this morning and felt like I already knew what happened overnight without even talking to her. Thank you for sending Amy our way!"

"My husband and I have been reflecting on how incredible yall have been and how bittersweet our farewell will be.

Vee, just in case you aren’t aware - you have truly been a godsend. You came in when we were sleepless and still finding our parenting legs. You reinforced our belief that there’s no spoiling a newborn and you held our baby through the night when he just wanted cuddles. You gave us peace of mind that our boy was going to get all the love and attention he needed and you became one of his favorite people (and ours!). THANK YOU for all that you’ve done to care for our baby and by extension, us.

Bryn, thank you for getting us into y’all’s network so quickly. I’m sure you could hear the overwhelm in my voice when we spoke and I’ll be forever grateful for your quick turnaround."

"Absolutely loved our lactation consultant! She had a few things for me to tweak to make breastfeeding even easier. 10/10 would recommend everyone meet with her postpartum, if only to give yourself some added confidence."

"Quick summary: if you have a child on the way or have a newborn, and you are considering seeking some support, hire Bryn and her team right away. The support you will receive is incredible.

We hired Bryn as a postpartum doula. We don't have family around, and we really needed support. From day 1, she made us feel completely comfortable and made our transition to parenthood seamless. Our baby arrived early, and our house was strewn with packages for the baby we didn't get time to unpack. Bryn got to it right away, and within an hour our home looked amazing—things back in place, baby items sorted systematically, my wife made comfortable, the baby relaxed.

Subsequently, Bryn and Lucy teamed up as our care providers. Our biggest ask was to help us learn to take care of the baby ourselves. Bryn and her team delivered admirably—they explained every detail, from the baby's behaviors to the stroller. We actually never felt that Bryn and her team were care providers—they felt like family. Thanks New England Doula Support!"

"Bryn and the NEDS team are INCREDIBLE! From pregnancy, labor and delivery, and the tender postpartum period, they have been there for support, knowledge and to hold space for our experience. I especially appreciate Bryn’s services throughout my birthing experience where she supported my partner and I at the hospital, making us feel confident, comfortable and cared for. Thank you so much to New England Doula support services for all of your guidance during this amazing transition for our family."

"As a mother of three young children, and working full time, life is hectic. Brynentered our lives 18 months as our nanny and she has been nothing but ablessing. My children adore her and she has become my “right hand man”. Shegoes above and beyond daily to accommodate the kids (and my) needs and isa vital part of our household. Bryn is a mother and knows what it takes tohelp us other moms. We are truly blessed to have her."

"We had the best experience with New England Doula Support! Our night nurse was caring and capable and became a cherished member our household during our sons first five months. Bryn was so helpful in finding us care and her whole team was a delight to work with through the whole process. They provide the best newborn care that helps new parents confidently drift off into that much needed restorative sleep."

"I highly recommend NEDS to anyone looking for doula services. I'm not sure we would have survived these first few postpartum months without Bryn's support. We hired Bryn for overnight newborn care. I have Carrot Fertility benefits through my company and Bryn was incredibly knowledgeable about navigating that process. In the first few weeks postpartum we were dealing with a reflux baby, breast feeding issues due to an undiagnosed tongue tie and our 4 year old struggling to sleep due to the family transition. We were struggling through a special level of sleep deprivation that we didn't really experience with our first. Bryn connected me with an amazing lactation consultant who helped us solve a few issues - and Bryn gave us expert perspective that helped us figure out that our son had a milk protein allergy. All of that was on top of giving us full nights of sleep a few times a week! We're so grateful to Bryn for helping us get through these first couple of months and we've been recommending her to everyone we know."

“We used NEDS services for several months with our recent newborn, and were beyond happy with the team.

Two things are of the highest importance when using a service like this:
1) That the newborn care is excellent, and
2) The coordination + communication is excellent

The “no stress” thing can not be overstated – there’s enough curveballs as a parent. Being able to trust that NEDS would be there for us as life happened was a huge mental load off. Their communication and adaptability is absolutely top notch. We enthusiastically, unreservedly recommend them!”

“Melinda has done such an incredible job with our daughter, which is completely expected, and she is now sleeping through the night.
 
It’s a happy and sad moment, happy because our daughter has reached an important milestone, but then sad because this means I no longer get to see Melinda every day.
 
Melinda to me, is just someone that I am in complete awe of. I remember the first time I ever met her, when we brought our son back from the hospital – I was feeling so anxious and I was exhausted and sleep deprived and the moment she walked into the room, I felt calm. She has this calm, kind spirit that translates to everyone around her, and especially the babies that she cares for. I am so happy that my daughter was able to experience that kindness and calm even just for a little bit. Melinda is a master baby whisperer, the absolute best of the best, and a special soul. There is no one like her (of all the night nannies we have seen, no one even comes close to Melinda) and she should be recognized and celebrated for her skill and devotion to her work.”

"I am so excited to be working with Bryn/New England Doula Support. We have experienced so much trauma with pregnancies and doctors in general so it's a true God send to have someone as kind as Bryn to be there to support us through this beautiful and scary experience. I know that Bryn is going to be such an amazing help and the hand massages will be an added bonus. I am so happy to have found Bryn/New England Doula Support - it's going to take a lot of stress out of birth!"

"Bryn was so supportive and would send texts just to check in on me leading up to my brith. She was helpful with staying with my sleeping child so we could go to the hospital when I was in labor. She offered lots of text support after birth too!"
Kate

"Bryn and her team were amazing to help my wife and I transition home with our first child. Her team was so supportive and kind and offered so much important and helpful advice as we learned to care for our new baby. We cannot thank them enough!"
