Testimonials 

"I went back to work 16 weeks after my son was born and he was waking up every 2 hours through the night. I was at breaking point and was struggling to work. That is when I contacted Candice from Cove Valley Doula. She came in to take care of my son overnight and not only gave me some much needed rest but also provided lots of useful baby care advice that was much appreciated as I was a first time mom. 
I highly recommend Candice to take care of your child. She is one of the very few people I trust and will take care of them as if they are her own. In fact she still takes care of my son who is now a very energetic toddler!"

"Candice is a true blessing to have around, especially when you become a parent who doesn't have the support you hoped for. She always made sure both of my girls were taken care of just like they were her own! She was very attentive of what the babies needed, but also made sure I was okay and taken care of to the best of her ability. I couldn't have asked for a better woman helping me through the entire process of becoming a mother!"

​"Candice took care of my infant and then toddler daughter every week for a long time. I knew I was leaving her in wonderful hands. She was attentive to Hanna’s needs and cared for her like one of her own. Hanna always looked forward to going with Candice and I loved to see the way they interacted. Candice’s warmth and caring ways are part of what make her someone I would trust with any of my loved ones."

"Candice has been a gift to me even though I am not a first time mom! She’s very versatile with her advice and has excellent experience as both a doula & an experienced mom herself. Her genuine caring personality is the right type of continual support every new mother needs, no matter if it’s your first or fourth! I met Candice when I was pregnant with my third. Throughout my pregnancy and postpartum journey, she was always willing to care for baby and all his needs, as well as checking on me & my mental health. She has been with me during my last two pregnancies, a boy & girl. I truly do not believe they would not have been as positive births/postpartum experiences, if not for Candice with her incredible joy & love for my babies."

"Candice stepped in as a true lifesaver. She was there from day two and ensured our baby was well-attended to during those newborn nights, allowing me the much-needed rest to rejuvenate. Thanks to her, I woke up each morning feeling rested and ready to care for my entire family. Her presence was not just about helping with the baby; it was about supporting the well-being of our whole family. With her compassionate care and expertise, gentle techniques and reassuring presence, she helped baby to sleep through the night by 8 weeks. Her knowledge and approach not only gave us rest but also the confidence to establish healthy sleep habits for our little one. We are deeply grateful for her dedication and cannot recommend her highly enough. Any family would be fortunate to have Candices support during such a pivotal time."

"Candice was amazing at helping me. Being a new mom, learning how to multitask wasn’t easy. Being able to sleep knowing that my son was being cared for also made that possible. Candice was able to assist me in so many ways during this time. She is very kind, loving and patient. I could not have had a better person helping me with my son."
