    Would I recommend Brandi Jordan as a sleep consultant? Not unless you're a celebrity or have…read morethousands of dollars to waste. For the average parent, you'll likely spend thousands of dollars only to end up back where you started--with vague, generic advice you could easily find online and some added reassurance. Brandi's approach offers little to no long-term guidance. She works on a day-by-day basis without providing written materials or a structured plan to follow, which makes it nearly impossible to build consistency once the sessions end. It feels like being handed a toolkit for a toy bike when you're trying to fix a kitchen sink, completely mismatched and ultimately unhelpful. Throughout our experience, she asked for detailed information about our child's sleep schedule, feeding patterns, and behaviors, which was time-consuming to document. Yet, those details seemed disregarded, as the feedback almost always boiled down to a generic "you'll have to let the baby cry," delivered in a reassuring but repetitive way. Months later, we're still struggling to get our child to sleep independently. We received no follow-up documents, no lasting framework, and no practical tools to help us move forward. After spending over $1,000, we were left feeling misled, frustrated, and uncertain about what to do next. If you're considering hiring Brandi, I urge you to think carefully. Save your time, energy, and resources. Look for a consultant who offers structured support, written guidance, and consistent follow-through; not someone whose attention is divided elsewhere. Parents deserve more than being treated like another number in the queue. Updated response to Brandi... I actually worked with you in April 2025, and communication stopped soon after the contract period ended. We followed your instructions exactly as outlined. Not every child responds the same way, and sometimes a more individualized approach is necessary, but it became clear you didn't have the time or availability to provide that level of support.

    TW: postpartum depression, prematurity, self-harm…read more There's a reason there are very few reviews more recent than 2021, and they are negative. We contracted Brandi Jordan as a sleep consultant in June 2025 when we were in a truly desperate situation; I was hallucinating from sleep deprivation and suffering terrible postpartum depression. In hindsight, I figure that's how we fell for this. We paid over $1500 and here's what we got: a single one hour Zoom, a single 30 minute phone call about a week later (for which she was 20 minutes late), and 30-40 days of "text support," though there were several instances where she did not respond for three days despite our texts. I felt "left on read." To be fair to her, it was in our contract that this is what we could get: a one hour zoom, up to 3 follow-up calls and 30 days of text support. When I signed the contract, I did think this was sort of minimal, but I was desperate and figured "hey, maybe she can work magic." At our initial Zoom call, she said she had "never met a baby that couldn't sleep through the night after 2-3 weeks, max," so we were thrilled and hopeful! Now I know why this is true; she doesn't actually *meet* the babies- It's all virtual! She absolutely cannot work magic; please don't fall for this marketing that preys on desperate parents like we did. I feel stupid for having believed her. As other reviews have said, there is no individual tailoring, and the method she uses is essentially soft Ferberizing: letting the baby cry and cry with intermittent check-ins that get progressively longer. This was torture for all of us. Our baby was born extremely prematurely at 26 weeks and spent nearly 3 months in the NICU before coming home on oxygen. We did this contract when she was about 9 months old (6 months adjusted). We were obviously all still traumatized, and she had a lot of difficulty self-soothing at all. There was no troubleshooting about what how her and our individual situation might be contributing to sleep issues. Listening to her cry for 90 minutes in the middle of the night resulted in my self-harming several times (again, I had bad PPD). We did it though, because Brandi told us to. How it would work is that every morning we would text Brandi how the night went, and she would maybe respond that day saying something like "okay let's do that again" or "let's push this feed back 15 minutes" or something. A lot of the time she just wouldn't respond. I gave two stars because after the 30-40 days, our baby was sleeping a bit better than at the beginning (only 2-4 wakeups a night instead of 10). Additionally, this is way too expensive for such minimal support. You can find all this information online (Ferber with intermittent check-ins and dream feeds). Maybe if you have a normal or semi-easy baby this would work, but otherwise only time will help. Our baby is now 1 and wakes up about once a night every other night; only time got us here.

As a first time mom I had no idea what to expect during the birth process and I was very nervous. Nancy helped us prepare for birth and guided us through the labor experience. It was so helpful having such a kind, non-judgmental doula on call anytime I needed advice or support. She's extremely responsive and felt like a second mom looking out for me the whole time. She had lots of useful resources and books that she leant me to help me prepare. I was committed to doing the Hypno babies program and she knew exactly how to support me in that throughout my birthing time. During birth Nancy and my partner took turns giving me hip compressions for hours to help alleviate the pains from contractions. When it came time to make game time medical decisions during birth she was a knowledgeable expert to consult with. She has been through so many births and understands the process and how things can play out. Thanks to Nancy's guidance I was able to have a natural unmedicated birth and she helped start me on a successful breastfeeding journey. Nancy was instrumental in helping us have a calm and healthy birth. Both my partner and I would give her a 10/10!

She was incredibly knowledgeable, answered all our questions with patience, and made me feel confident, supported and prepared.

I truly felt cared for every step of the way. She felt like family. If you are looking for someone who is compassionate, professional, and deeply dedicated to her clients, Nancy is the perfect choice. As new parents, we look back at the experience & She made such a difference for me and my husband. We are blessed and grateful to have her guide us through this beautiful journey

Linda was able to come out asap and she very much helped me! We realized he did better on a nipple shield and have been using one the last two weeks. He's been getting stronger and able to breast feed no problem. During our first session, she was able to confirm that my insurance would cover a postpartum Doula. So I get 11 sessions through Kaiser, which has been wonderful! So Linda comes to my house once or twice a week to help me in my recovery and breast-feeding journey. It has been really nice to have the support and the help. She's really been great! We will be working on getting him off the nipple sheilds, hopefully in the next few weeks. But having the help at home has really been great as well as the lactation support. I would definitely recommend calling her and seeing if you were insurance will cover visits from her.

I found Natal through my insurance, and we connected right away. She came to my home for a visit and immediately addressed the issues I was experiencing. We worked together for several weeks until I felt confident that my daughter was latching correctly. She also helped me learn how to effectively use my pump while nursing. I just had my second daughter recently and I didn't think I would need a lactation consultant since I had been through this before. However, my second daughter had a shallow latch, and I knew I needed to contact Natal right away. I was so glad to reconnect with her. I reached out on a Friday, and she came to my home first thing Saturday morning. She made me feel comfortable immediately and reminded me that every baby is different and comes with their own challenges. Natal now has an office as well, so I went there for follow-up visits. This time around, I didn't need to see her as often since I felt more confident, and we were able to quickly identify and correct the issue.

At our first appointment, she was not only so patient and gentle with my baby, she was knowledgeable and informative with me. Breastfeeding is something I really want to accomplish, but before Natal, I'd honestly given up. The lactation consultants at the hospital were so dismissive of me, as I have larger breasts. Baby had a difficult time latching. They kept pushing me to the bottle route, and honestly, I was close to giving up on my breastfeeding journey. However, now with Natal's guidance, I am more motivated than ever before. She takes insurance and has a reasonable travel fee if you'd like a home visit. As new moms, you know you're on baby's time... not ours. So her providing the option for house visits is a game changer!!! Baby and I thank you!!!

    PLEASE AVOID KATHLEEN. READ THE OTHER RECENT NEGATIVE REVIEWS. She somehow got our last review…read moreremoved. I assume she has been doing this with a lot of reviewers. Long story, short: Kathleen should not be taking care of babies at night. I'm rewriting this review because she is putting babies in danger and this could cause harm to baby. She showed up to our house after eye surgery and could barely see and walk around our house at night time. I have camera proof that she fell asleep with our baby in her arms as well. After that, she refused to give back our deposit and took all our money. She claimed it didn't apply because the deposit was applied to the substitute. What a scam of a lady. Putting babies in danger and taking new parents money. Please do not use Kathleen for night nanny/doula services.

    I am writing this review after giving it months to process- we hired Kathleen after an incredibly…read morestressful and horrible situation where our infant nearly died in the middle of the night and we were not sure we would ever sleep again due to the trauma of that. Kathleen was very responsive when I called initially and continued to check on us when we were in the hospital. I thought that was a good sign - but we couldn't have been more disappointed with the outcome and fired her after two nights. The first night she showed up she made fun of the way I swaddled sarcastically (yes, I'm sorry I don't know how to swaddle I just got my baby home from the hospital where nurses were doing it BECAUSE HE ALMOST DIED) and isn't it your job to teach me how to do those things? We should have sent her home then and there after that tone deaf sarcasm. We were desperate though. Even given the situation, Kathleen was far more concerned about how she would sleep comfortably and even had me looking for her glasses for her in the middle of the night because she couldn't find them. Wtf??? I've just been through the worst experience of my life and now I am caretaking you???? The second morning after she left the baby's diaper was falling off, the place was a mess including her crackers under the couch, even though we didn't have anyone else lined up we had to let her go. I was going to refrain on writing a review as she did send me an apology note and mentioned she was too old for the night jobs anymore and would be transitioning into education only (yes, 100%, should not be in charge of nighttime infant care) but for some reason I decided to look her up on here and I see she is or course taking those jobs still. I feel the need to note my experience and forewarn anyone else considering hiring her that she has the bedside manner of a screeching Tasmanian devil and to be frank my baby would probably be dead if we had hired her before the event. I'm shaking writing this because it is just that upsetting . Oh , and after finding out I was a hairdresser, on night two she was ASKING ME WHEN I COULD DO HER HAIR . ????????????????????????? Excuse me I just had major surgery, my baby almost died, I'm clearly not well and taking maternity leave as long as I can, and you are really asking me that? I also had a musical healing mantra playing in the room for my baby and she said "she wanted to blow it up". I think I've painted the picture for you- I would recommend running far away from this one. The lack of professionalism is enough, but she's also quite possibly a smoker-she smelled like febreze over cigarettes- which is a HUGE Nono around babies. This is all extremely dangerous and I really don't want anyone else to have the experience that we did.

After researching and speaking with many doulas, we decided to go with Jana. She was extremely professional, organized, knowledgeable, and most importantly, listened to what we wanted and even asked us questions that made us think about aspects of the birth we had not considered. At our first visit, she gave us a very comprehensive overview of what to expect and how to best prepare for the big day. When my contractions started, we were in constant communication via text and phone. She immediately recognized that the baby was not in a favorable position and was causing me immense pain. She suggested exercises and positions to try and get baby to turn. At the hospital, Jana worked very well with our nurse and was our advocate and spokesperson when we needed her to be. She was prepared with snacks (juice can only go so far) and other comfort items like a vaporizer with essential oils. Throughout the almost 12 hours at the hospital, Jana struck a balance between knowing when to step in and suggest positions to my husband and I, when to back off and let me do my thing, and when to push me to drink or rest. Having someone we trusted there to help guide us was invaluable, especially in allowing my husband time to get food or rest. Without Jana, I wouldn't have had the natural childbirth experience I wanted. The week after my son was born, Jana followed up to check in on us and also stopped by for a visit. It was re-assuring to have her there to answer any questions and be a resource for us first time parents. I strongly recommend her doula services and she will be my first call if we decide to add to our family!

I got to Rosa because I know she will help me put my body back together and those benefits are longer-lasting than any massage I have received from anyone else before. I have lost track of how many times I have recommended her to family members, friends, and clients that I work with. My husband has also been to see Rosa. At first, he thought Rosa only worked with women and fertility, only to discover that she is equally amazing with athletic recovery, lymphatic drainage, and other areas of massage and detoxification. Rosa is more than just a trained massage therapist, she has a gift of healing hands. She may as well be a doctor!

For all you weekend warriors who are looking for the fastest recovery, you won't find a place better than this! Anything that Rosa doesn't know how to do herself, she's really great about referring you to other people on her team.
