Client Testimonials

  • "We used Sarina for Overnight Postpartum Support and couldn't be happier. She always arrived on time, was kind, knowledgeable, warm and sensitive to my needs as well as my family's needs. She provided detailed notes about what my newborn was doing throughout the night which gave me peace of mind to know what was going on and feel confident as I got rest which helped me tremendously on my post-partum recovery. She was happy to provide community referrals when I asked her and consistently checked in on my recovery process and any support I needed. I would recommend Sarina to anyone!"

  • - Randi, Stamford, CT

  • "Sarina was amazing! She was such a great help! I needed help and some education right after I gave birth and being first time mother she truly helped me with everything! I didn't have to ask her for anything she actually volunteered with everything I can't thank enough. Truly appreciate it!"

  • - Anna, White Plains, NY

  • "We had a great experience working with Sarina. She provided our family post-partum support as well as a prenatal session. The prenatal session was very informative and gave us a lot of good tips and comfort measures that we used when we went to the hospital. As sleep-deprived parents with a newborn, the post partum sessions were invaluable to us. Having Sarina help us, especially overnight, made a huge difference. Our daughter adjusted really well to Sarina, who had a kind, compassionate, and calm demeanor, and so we were able to sleep knowing that our our daughter was really well taken care of. Sarina kept a detailed, shared document in real time, of everything that was happening (feeding, eating, sleeping, diaper changes, etc.) so if I could see it or refer back to it. Sarina also gave us a lot of tips and information around feeding and sleeping which was very helpful for us, as we are first time parents. Sarina also made light snacks and did light laundry and some other helpful things during the sessions. Overall, we had a great experience with Sarina and wish we had more time with her!"

  • - Lauren, White Plains, NY

  • "We had a wonderful experience working with Sarina and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone! She provided kind, warm, non-judgmental support throughout our journey. She was incredibly present in both the mental and physical sense, even when my labor ended up being a much longer process than any of us signed up for. We felt comfortable with Sarina from the moment we met her and knew we could trust her during the most vulnerable time in our lives. She listened to and validated us every step of the way. When I learned I would need to be induced at 37 weeks she jumped into action and helped us adjust to a totally new birth plan. She was a steady, reassuring presence throughout the 2.5 days of my induction. My husband and I were so comforted by her advocacy and support. When I ultimately needed a c section, she provided vital emotional support and information about what to expect. Her postpartum support was indispensable. She taught us practical skills including how to bathe our baby in our space, how to baby wear, and how to use my pump. She also was a calming, reassuring presence and helped us process our birth and cope with the stress and fatigue of becoming parents. We’re so happy we worked with Sarina and can’t imagine this experience without her."
