Mother's Helper

"Lin is wonderful! I cannot say enough good things about her. She is kind and caring and very knowledgeable and professional. I was about ready to give up breast-feeding when she was recommended to me for her lactation consultant services. I left our meeting encouraged and excited to try the tips she had given me. Not only did those help, but she also was able to help assess my son for a tongue tie, which we have since gotten corrected. Because of her things are going both of us! I highly recommend Lin in her services."

"My Husband and I chose Lin Cook to be our Doula, Lactation consultant, and took the Bradley Method classes with her. We learned so much from Lin during the Bradley classes. She is so knowledgable and has such a passion for it. The classes helped us to feel much better prepared for a natural birth and to understand the labor and delivery process. Lin and I were in contact regularly leading up to the birth. Since I was late my doctor pushed for an induction. Lin was always reassuring and there to talk which helped ease any anxiety I had about the induction. Day of delivery Lin was amazing and is your biggest advocate! We didn't need to ask for anything because if it was needed Lin had already gotten it. She set up an amazing bath that I was able to labor in, and she ensured we kept changing labor positions frequently to keep up momentum.With Lins help I had a wonderful and natural birth experience. Both my Husband and I say we couldn't have done it without Lin. Lin came over after the birth to check in and help set up a good breastfeeding foundation as our lactation consultant. She was the only one who caught that our son had a tongue tie, that we were able to quickly get assessed and fixed. She has been a crucial part of helping me have a good breastfeeding journey with my son. I could go on forever about all the ways Lin has helped and continues to help during this chapter of our lives. We will definitely be calling Lin when it is time for baby #2"

"My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the Bradley Classes that Lin teaches. As first time parents, we had a lot of questions and the classes were so thorough in answering all of them. We now feel better prepared for our upcoming birth and are grateful for all of the insight, experience, and education Lin shared with us. Highly recommend!"

"We just had our first baby and we hired Lin as our labor doula and also took her Bradley Method class. I knew I wanted an unmedicated natural birth and Lin made me feel at ease with her wealth of knowledge and availability to us when we had questions. We felt so prepared for birth and learned so much in the process. She helped coach me through the challenging moments and was a great support and champion of our birth plan when we needed it. My husband and I both agree that Lin was well worth the investment. If you are wanting to hire a doula for an unmedicated child birth, Lin is so helpful and we HIGHLY recommend taking her Bradley Class along with it."

"I'm so glad we hired Mother's Helper for our first childbirth! I wanted a natural birth with no medications or accelerants. Lin coached my husband and I through the entire process because we hired her as a doula and took her Bradley Method classes. We put in the time to do the exercises and eat according to the plans of the class and ultimately had a completely unmedicated child birth. I am confident that we wouldn't have had the tools or knowledge to accomplish this without Lin and her expertise. After many of our doctors appointments, we would call Lin to get her advice on decisions. She always gave her opinion based upon her experience and education but ultimately respected whatever decision we made. Even after birth, she has been available to answer questions about lactation, sleeping habits, and so much more. Hiring Mother's Helper was worth every penny! I hope every new mother feels empowered and excited about their birth experience, and if you don't, Lin will help get you there."
