It all begins with an idea.

“Caroline was with me in the early days of breastfeeding my first baby and I'm so grateful she was! I remember calling her at 5am asking why my newborn wouldn't stop crying and settle in her bassinet?! She kindly said "she may just want to stay close to your breast". And just like that I understood the power of my breasts to soothe and comfort and nourish my little one. Caroline normalized the early days of breastfeeding pain and exhaustion, helped me learn to nurse lying down so I could rest and celebrated alongside me when I found my groove. Her nonjudgemental, knowledgable and empathetic approach made me feel safe in the overwhelm of early motherhood, setting me up for a beautiful breastfeeding relationship with my daughter.” Alison B., Toronto

It all begins with an idea.

“Every new mother deserves the incredible care provided by Caroline Donni. I will never forget the overwhelm I felt bringing my daughter home from the hospital. It was the biggest love I had ever felt, and the weight of my new responsibility threatened to overshadow everything. I assumed breastfeeding would be automatic and instinctual. It wasn’t. I didn’t know if my baby was getting what she needed from me. I was scared. And I was too scared to admit I was scared. Maybe you know that feeling too? Caroline came to my home, sat beside me and smiled. Her presence brought immediate reassurance. She showed me how to create a proper latch, and how to listen to the tiny hum of my baby’s swallows. “There, she’s drinking. That is the sound you want.” In that moment I finally relaxed. I was able to trust my body and my baby. I’m so grateful for our breastfeeding journey. I’m confident it helped establish a deep bond with my daughter, and a secure and trustworthy attachment. The guidance Caroline provided gave me the confidence to navigate through those critical early days. Being able to provide nourishment to our children is a deep and primal need. If you are struggling with breastfeeding, or need reassurance on your journey, Caroline would be the first person I would call. She is wise, knowledgeable and filled with loving kindness. She is the kind of woman every mother deserves to have in their corner.” Melissa Moore, Toronto
