Gaia Luna Matrescence Services

Leilani helped me with my first baby — he was a very large baby, almost 12 pounds at birth, so I had a C-​section. With that and his weight, I could hardly hold him, and even more stressful, I had trouble making enough milk for him. Leilani was a great help, holding my heavy baby constantly (he did not like to be put down) and preparing all kinds of traditional new-​mom foods to try and help me increase my milk supply. She was very professional in terms of communication and scheduling, and at the same time, very warm, gentle, and personal with both me and the baby.
She was very accommodating and was willing and able to help with a whole range of services for both the baby and mom, including basic baby care, preparing foods, some household help, resources and advice for baby care and postpartum recovery, reiki, and other potential areas I didn’t completely take advantage of.
I had a very hard time in the first few months after delivery with some early medical problems and some postpartum depression, and I don’t know how I could have gotten by without helping hands from family, friends, and patient, accommodating doulas like Leilani.
