After each night feed, Cheryl would look after our baby so I could get a little more rest. She showed us how to bathe and care for our newborn and establish a routine. The early days/weeks can be overwhelming for sleep deprived new parents. It was comforting and reassuring having Cheryl around. We recommend her whole heartedly. Sophia and Stephen Choi

This is a new clinic, located in Markham. Great location plenty of parking…read more Everyone in the clinic is very friendly and professional, great atmosphere. They work with the whole range of patient, from babies, to elderly people. I'm a patient of Martina Di Gioacchino, speech language pathologist. Over the course of 5 treatments she helped me tremendously. I initially came to Martina for the voice control and treatment. The nature of my job requires me to attend client's calls and sometimes conduct the presentations where I have to speak for 1 - 2 hours. I used to start loosing my voice after the first 30 minutes. After working with Martina I see a huge improvement. She taught me how to control my breath, posture and how to improve my voice projection. Another area I needed help with was an accent reduction. English is my second language, and Martina was the first professional who could identify the areas I need to work on right away and explain how to pronounce certain sounds correctly. I still need to remind myself to focus on those, but when I do I can pronounce them right. I know I won't get rid of my accent entirely, no do I strive for it, but it's nice to sound intelligently. It's been a very pleasant and productive experience and highly recommend this clinic

I took my little one to get an assessment to see if he requires any Speech articulation therapy…read more While I was trying to encourage up my shy little to talk, the supposedly professional was telling me not to be pushy and let him talk as she tries to ask him to talk. As if a shy little kid will talk to a stranger?? How can she assess her if she don't talk? She was very contradicting when she tells me that parent participation is encouraged on the phone, and telling me to SHUT up when I'm there? She was RUDE and making the experience unpleasant for the Parent, which are the ones that decide to pay for the service. Please reconsider another clinic if possible. TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE experience.

I didn't even know what a night doula was until I was probably a month or so away from giving…read morebirth. I was so incredibly grateful for Helping Hands and Sharon fitting us into their schedule. As a first time mom new to Toronto I had zero support. I was so grateful for Sharon's care of our daughter and guidance for me as a new mother. She showed me how to use my breast pump, ways to help feed a bottle, burping and baby wrapping methods. She made me feel at ease and helped me get some rest in those early nights. Something I didn't think I could do anything about. I highly highly recommend considering a night doula if it's in your budget. It gave us peace of mind and we would definitely hire again for another child.

We had a WONDERFUL virtual/in person experience with Kristi and Jabir. Due to the pandemic, when we…read morehired them we went for the virtual package pre and post natal. We had a really informative and helpful one on one zoom call about 1.5 months prior to my due date, but they were answering my questions in our group WhatsApp chat from the moment I signed up! They always responded so promptly, and put our minds at ease. I had a c-section scheduled, but went into labour two days before! So Kristi was able to help guide me through the symptoms and contractions and advise us when we should head to the hospital. After we came home, we utilized them a LOT for all our baby questions from sleep patterns, rashes, breastfeeding, anything! We upgraded to have our lactation specialist come into the home and help us - 100% worth it and we still refer back to what we learned with her. Kristi is well versed in breastfeeding techniques, so helped us keep up with things - and when our baby cried straight for two days, was able to advise us over a call that the baby might still be hungry and need top ups, and solved our crying baby! We used our last session for an in person visit with Kristi, so she could meet our baby (lower risk times) and still she helped us with gas issues/ideas to help baby, etc. I cannot recommend this service enough! I'm a first time Mom, and having them in my corner was the best thing I did for myself and my family. Do not hesitate to hire them - even virtually - because they really do go above and beyond and it's a wonderful experience.

Thank you Kate!

Kate the great! It's cheesy but true. Here's why:…read more We hired Kate for my second labour. My first labour was okay. It was a textbook labour (aka "easy") and epidural-free, under the care of midwives in a birth centre. That being said, I felt traumatized by it for quite some time afterwards. The pain totally surprised me and I felt like things got out of control. It was otherworldly and, quite frankly, I needed more support than I got. During my second pregnancy, I did some research. I realised midwives, doctors, and nurses are great as healthcare providers, but they don't provide much emotional support. I wanted more emotional support and I wanted A LOT of suggestions on how to manage the pain in the moment. Enter Kate. She impressed me right away because I could see she was super organised. She also had an immense toolkit to manage pain and calm emotions. Hiring her was a no-brainer (although I admit I had some sticker shock -- more on this later) My second labour ended up being more challenging than the first (epidural failed, baby was stuck, etc.), but it felt better and more peaceful thanks to Kate's presence. Nothing about it felt traumatic. I cannot recommend Kate enough. Don't believe my review? My husband was skeptical prior to meeting Kate. "I don't think she'll be able to offer much more than a midwife", he said. After meeting her, he was surprised and impressed by her knowledge and toolkit. After labour, he agreed with me that she was worth every penny.
