What families say

Shamika was an absolute gift to our family during the early postpartum weeks. She provided exceptional lactation support as we navigated both breastfeeding and bottle feeding, helping us build confidence and calm around feeding in a way that felt supportive and never overwhelming.

★★★★★ — Emma, 2026-01

Stephanie has been an incredible doula, offering unwavering support, extensive knowledge, and genuine care throughout our entire pregnancy. We were consistently impressed by her deep understanding of every stage, patiently explaining complex topics and providing practical, tailored advice.

It was a terrific experience working with The New York Baby and our night nurse Arlene. The New York Baby made the process of finding a match for our needs easy. They provided multiple qualified options, had an efficient process, and offered fair pricing. Arlene was a terrific match for us first-time parents.
