San Diego Postpartum Doula Services

From the start (and in each visit), their priority was understanding how I was feeling emotionally and physically, and what my goals were, so they could tailor their time with me to meet my needs without ever making assumptions. As a nurse and mental health professional, it was important to me to work with people who value maternal mental health and follow evidence based practices. I was consistently impressed by their breadth of knowledge and references to recent research.”

My baby was born early at 35 weeks and was initially not strong enough to breastfeed. Rachel helped me transition from bottle feeding to breastfeeding. She offered helpful advice on breastfeeding positions and dealing with mastitis. Most importantly she made me feel confident that I could feed my baby. It was so wonderful to have in home visits, and Night and Day helped me find out that I could use health insurance to cover the cost. Overall I had a great experience and would highly recommend Night and Day if you are looking for a lactation consultant.”

Rachael and Sarah were very responsive and made time to see me quickly when I was feeling very discouraged and uncertain about how our breastfeeding journey was going. For the actual appointment, Sarah was prompt, very warm and welcoming, and patient with all of our questions. After just an hour, I feel much more confident in being able to continue breastfeeding and wish I had found them sooner and saved myself a little worry. Will definitely reach out to them again if the need arises, and highly recommend.”

They are professional yet warm, they are incredibly knowledgeable but never overwhelming, they are thorough and never make you feel rushed. They gave me so much confidence, peace of mind and encouragement during some very rocky early nursing moments. On top of it all my sweet baby (who had colic and didn’t take to most people) loved them both. Their energy is patient and soothing. I am so grateful for both Rachel and Emma, I would have given up on nursing without them. We are 7 months into our breast feeding journey and thriving because of Night and Day.”

She visited my home for two lactation consultations and provided me with excellent tips that helped improve my breastfeeding experience, milk quantity and confidence. She is very personable and knowledgeable and I felt comfortable with her immediately. I am grateful that I was referred to Night and Day for lactation help and highly recommend their service.”

and all of her expertise during my postpartum journey. She is a life saver and the sweetest, kindest and most knowledgeable lactation consultant there ever was!”

I have been so thankful for the care and detailed help I get and have ended every appointment feeling more confident and joyful. I met with Sarah and I would be in tears explaining the challenges and I was always met with patience, kindness, understanding and help, she had great and practical guidance, because of them I am over a year into my breastfeeding journey. Thank you night and day!”

It was not easy to breastfeed for us, but the consistent troubleshooting, home visits, weigh in's to provide reassurance made the process manageable. Sarah is who we saw the most often and she is consistently kind, warm, and a wonderful listener. It's easy to see she cares about the families she is working with. 100% recommend this service for first time parents wanting to breastfeed!”

- Danielle H.

Both of whom were amazing and offered so much support! I firmly believe that having Katie’s support made all the (positive) difference in my postpartum journey. She was truly incredible, I had (and continue to have) so much trust and respect for her. Sarah was incredibly supportive and helpful and I left that visit with the support and confidence I needed to continue my breastfeeding journey (still going strong at 7.5 months postpartum!).”

from becoming confident in breastfeeding & pumping (and then, weaning) to being a science-based and balanced sounding board for navigating sleep, baby wearing, and several other matters. I appreciated how kind both Sarah and Rachael were in each home visit, how information was shared without judgment or fearmongering, and how they validated my (and my partner's) parental instincts along the way. Thank you for being part of our new parent journey!”

- Stephanie L.

I have used this company postpartum, they are so responsive and helpful, I couldn’t recommend them more. Professional, kind, attentive, responsive and such a blessing. They were there for me when I needed them most!”

- Chelsea B.

She was a much-needed, calming, soothing presence and we deeply appreciated her being there for me. Thanks so much!"
