Su Yin is an absolute lifesaver! I truly would not be breastfeeding today without her.

I was referred to Su Yin by a friend, and from the moment she walked through my door, her warmth, experience, and knowledge made all the difference during the most overwhelming weeks of my life.

My daughter had a tongue and lip tie that we hadn’t yet discovered, and Su Yin was with me every step of the way. From teaching my husband and me different latching positions, showing us how to do stretches and mouth exercises with her, and even helping me get properly fitted for my breast pump. She came to my home, which meant so much during those early days when leaving the house felt impossible.

I’ll never forget one visit where after a brutal night with a crying newborn I was so overwhelmed. Without missing a beat, she just hugged me and told me I was doing a great job and that everything was going to be okay. I needed that more than I can say.

Beyond the in-home visits, Su Yin went above and beyond by answering texts, checking in daily, and sending me helpful websites, articles, and videos throughout my entire breastfeeding journey. She never made me feel alone in it.

If you are a new mom struggling with breastfeeding please reach out to Su Yin. She is knowledgeable, compassionate, and genuinely invested in you and your baby’s wellbeing. She is worth every penny and more. 🙏

I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience with Suyin.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience with Suyin. She is incredibly knowledgeable, calm, supportive, and truly made me feel comfortable during such a vulnerable stage of motherhood. From the moment we spoke, I felt reassured and cared for. What I appreciated most was how accessible and approachable she was, never judgmental, always patient, and so generous with her guidance and support. She took the time to answer every question thoughtfully and helped me feel more confident and at ease with breastfeeding.

You can truly tell how passionate she is about helping mamas and babies. I’m so grateful for her support and would recommend her to any mama looking for compassionate, evidence-based lactation support 🤍

I cannot recommend Suyin enough!

I cannot recommend Suyin enough! After struggling with pumping and feeding issues for weeks, I had already seen two other lactation consultants and spent over 6 hours with them, but saw very little improvement. I was exhausted and feeling defeated.
When I finally saw Suyin, everything changed in just 30 minutes. Unlike the previous consultants, she immediately identified that I was using the wrong equipment and provided me with the correct flanges to try. The difference was night and day—my supply doubled instantly.
She truly cares about you and becomes a dedicated coach who is there for you long-term. As a nurse and midwife, Suyin is incredibly knowledgeable, extremely experienced, efficient, and genuinely invested in your wellness. If you are struggling, save yourself the frustration and go see her first. She is a total lifesaver!

Exceptional Care During A Challenging NICU Journey

I had previously worked with two lactation consultants during my daughter’s NICU stay, but I left those consultations still feeling uncertain and without the guidance I truly needed. When I began working with Suyin, the experience was completely different—she provided clear, thorough, and individualized support that immediately made an impact.

One of the most valuable things I learned from her was the importance of proper flange sizing. I had no idea how critical this was to both comfort and milk expression. With her guidance, pumping became significantly more effective and, most importantly, pain-free. This was especially meaningful during an already emotionally challenging time, as I had been experiencing unnecessary discomfort for weeks prior.

I am incredibly grateful for Suyin’s expertise, compassion, and willingness to support me. Her care made a lasting difference in my breastfeeding and pumping journey, and I would highly recommend her services to any mother seeking knowledgeable and attentive lactation support.

Su was very helpful & knowledgeable. Being a first time mom I was quite anxious & she really helped steer us in the right direction. She genuinely cares for her clients & would frequently check in!

I had the pleasure of

I had the pleasure of working with Suyin during my postpartum journey and her expertise in breastfeeding support was very helpful in the early days. From the very first visit, she offered thoughtful and practical advice with my goals in mind. She patiently helped me with latch issues, answered all my questions, and provided the encouragement I needed to feel confident. I truly felt supported both physically and emotionally. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and knows their stuff when it comes to breastfeeding, Suyin is the person to call!

My husband and I had the pleasure of having Suyin as our postpartum doula. Her knowledge and expertise over the past 2 months really helped us grow our confidence as first time parents. I also appreciated her support especially with my breastfeeding journey and always being there to provide me with educational material, recommendations and encouragement. Suyin navigated us through challenging newborn times and we can’t imagine what it would be like without her care and support. I highly recommend Suyin as she brings so much knowledge and passion to what she does. Thank you Suyin for always going above and beyond to address our concerns and needs. We will miss the magic you brought to our home and are forever grateful for your support (:

Suyin has it all!

I’m so glad to have stumbled across Cherry Blossom Doulas and have Suyin come in and support me after the birth of my first child. I was originally looking for Chinese post-partum cuisine but received so much more. Suyin’s extensive knowledge from her previous career as a nurse was incredibly helpful in my recovery and my baby’s care. Also I was thrilled to have lactation consulting in my early days to ensure I was able to breastfeed my child. Also I was extremely happy to have belly binding as part of my care. If you’re a new parent looking for amazing support don’t hesitate to contact this company – you’ll be really pleased with the service and attention.

We felt really supported by Suyin

Suyin was super supportive for our newborn and also for me and my husband. Our baby being our first child, it was a very stressful time with many new things to learn. Suyin gave us many advice and tips and is really responsive via our chat.

We really trust her being with our child and knows that she would take really good care of him.

Asides from taking care of our baby, she also provided emotional support for both my husband and I, which is very important during this tough (but also happy) time.

We 100% recommend Suyin’s services to others, and if we have any future children, we will look for Suyin’s help again!

Best decision ever

We hired Suyin as our night time doula for the early newborn stages. She was very helpful with showing me how to breastfeed, and providing different options/apparatus and helpful tips along my journey. She brought my baby to me when it was time to feed and promptly took him after, to give me more rest. She also helped to fold baby’s laundry, and washed bottles while I was sleeping.

Suyin is very friendly, easy to communicate with, knowledgeable, very good with babies and does not hesitate to follow up with any questions you have with her colleagues. She was always on time/early and gives you the feeling that she truly cares for you and your baby’s wellbeing. 10/10 would recommend

Thank you Cherry Blossom Doula!

I decided to do belly binding for my second pregnancy postpartum. Suyin was amazing she took her time to show me how to bind my belly and made sure I was comfortable doing it myself. Suyin answered all my questions and concerns. She was easy to talk to, very professional and knowledgeable. Suyin is also very caring she took the time out of her busy schedule to message me on several occasions to see how I was doing. It’s been two weeks and so far the postpartum belly binding has helped with my abdominal muscle heal. Thank you Suyin!

We were lucky to have support from Suyin (and Petra who we were also lucky to meet) for the first month and as a first time mom it made things so much easier. All of my worries were soothed, my questions answered with patience and I trusted them to leave my newborn in their care while I took a nap and caught up on much needed sleep. Suyin solved all of my breastfeeding woes and made the process so much easier when it was initially painful. She’s also an amazing cook and it was so great to not have to think about that while figuring out how to take care of a newborn. My husband and I both felt like we had a shortcut to better understanding our baby. Most of all our newborn was able to feel calm and well supported with Suyin’s care and guidance – she’s almost three months now and is very easygoing, which I believe is because we learned how to understand her! We highly recommend Cherry Blossom Doulas!

As a first-time parent, having Suyin support us as our doula during my postpartum period was a game changer. It was reassuring to have access to her knowledge and expertise as we navigated through the confusing and sleep deprived newborn stage.

I was especially grateful for Suyin when I was struggling (and in a lot of pain!) from breastfeeding. She provided helpful tips and videos over text and then even came for a visit the very next day to provide in-person assistance. I’m happy to report that breastfeeding is now a breeze.

Also, Suyin’s cooking is amazing and we appreciated her help keeping our house in order while we had our hands busy with our new baby.

Thank you for everything, Suyin! We’ll miss you!

A+ teacher

I had the privilege of undergoing doula training with Suyin last year. SuYIn is a very knowledgeable teacher, someone who knows the profession at the back of her hand among many other things. Sharing her knowledge does not stop after the training and she is always ready to support and help build your confidence in doing the job. I will always be thankful to you Suyin and for all the things that you do.

One of the best Doula in the GTA

Ms. Suyin is one of the genuine people I know. She is really informative, caring, reliable, and patient. She kindly shares lots of ideas that will make her students feel equipped and ready to face the Postpartum doula world! I am grateful to have met her and will recommend her to anyone who likes to be a PPD someday! Kudos!!

Having SuYin as our postpartum doula was one of the best decisions we made for the birth of our daughter! Not only did we gain some much needed rest as SuYin taking care of our baby and the house chores, most importantly, she helped us in the big transition of life with a new baby. As first time parents, we didn’t know much about caring for a baby. SuYin taught us through every step of taking care of a newborn, so we have the confidence to carry through after she moved on to help other parents. Suyin’s background in midwifery and years of experience in the field really provided her with the wealth of knowledge to answer any questions we had. As new parents, you are sure to have lots of worries about the baby. Having Suyin kept us calm and stress free, so we can focus on building a loving relationship with our baby. I also can’t imagine my breastfeeding going so well if not for having Suyin there, teaching me how to do it, and ensuring that latching was always correct. Suyin is a caring person and a good listener who makes you feel like chatting with a dear friend. She respects your decision as parents and will support you in anyway you want. She is also a great cook and can whip her magic with whatever you have in the fridge into delicious dishes. I will recommend her to anyone I know and will use her again if we have any future baby.

Suyin is the best doula you can possibly get for your child! She is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. From sleep training, to how to properly latch your kid, to what to do with a clogged milk duct, she knows it all. In addition, even after our subscription with her, she still followed up with us to make sure we are doing great. Lastly, she is very prompt at responding to our text. P.s…her lactation cookies were amazing

Both Mabel and Suyin were very helpful throughout my pregnancy. They are passionate in what they do and were very caring to me and my baby. Having them around for the first 3 weeks took a lot of stress and anxiety off of me and my husband. I would recommend Cherry Blossom Doulas to all of my friends. Thank you Mabel and Suyin!

Suyin was amazing to chat with as our first contact and then she connected us with Andrea. We had Andrea help us for our child for 1 month. She was very kind and reliable and was great at taking care of our child. The first month would have been quite difficult without her. She was really flexible with timing and was available sometimes at a moment’s notice. We really appreciate the help she gave us during this time!

I truly enjoyed this Postpartum Course. As a seasoned PP Doula I wasn’t expecting much to be honest but I found the course to be very well delivered, with new information for me and with lots of knowledge being shared as we shared our experiences with other doulas and professionals. Our instructor was full of knowledge and thought about different ways to keep the class engaged even though it being an online course. Great refresher course for me and really hoping to be able to reach my certification.

First of all, I would like to thank Suyin for recommending Andrea as our postpartum doula! Andrea was amazing! As new parents, we were so anxious of taking care of a newborn. Due to the pandemic, both our parents couldn’t come to help. I did a lot of research online and I interviewed several doulas. Although Suyin was not available, she was so nice and helped me find a suitable alternative. I’m really glad that we had Andrea help us for the first two months! My baby was born one month early. Andrea tried her best to come as soon as possible. She’s really good at taking care of newborns. She also helped me with breastfeeding and light housework. She was flexible with time schedule in order to accommodate our needs. I really appreciate her help and I highly recommend Andrea to any new parents who need an extra pair of hands!

We felt very safe, non judgemental, supportive help from her. She went above and beyond her duties to help us find what we were wanting in our specific holistic birth plan!

I worked with Andrea for doula service and Suyin for sleeping assistance. Both services helped me a lot. Especially they transferred a lot of knowledge to me, a new parent without a lot family assistance during Covid time. This means a ton to me. It will make your parenting life much easier during the early stage when you are sleepless, tired, and exhausted. I remember during my first month in postpartum, everyday I was waiting for Andrea to come to help so that both me and my husband can have some sleep. I highly recommend both of them to parents!

We were referred to Suyin by family and although she wasn’t available at the time to help with my newborn, she recommended Andrea to us and I’m glad she did! I wanted to have confinement meals prepared and newborn help and Andrea did just that! She was organized and proactive in researching the types of meals to prepare and always made sure I was well nourished and well rested during her time with us. She also helped me with breastfeeding and newborn care. I’m so glad she was there supporting me and my baby during the fourth trimester!

Kim is an angel!  She is very kind, caring and understanding!  She was incredibly supportive and encouraging during the most difficult stages of my labour and delivery.  Kim is also a fountain of knowledge and has always been available to answer my millions of questions.  I’m so grateful Kim was my doula!  I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone!!  She is a superstar!

I didn’t have a doula until my third child and I can’t imagine having chosen anyone but Kim.  She has a calm presence who made myself and my partner extremely comfortable.  Kim always had a reassuring or encouraging word when my labour threatened never to start.  Thank you Kim for giving me the confidence to have the birth of my dreams.

Meganne

We had the pleasure of having Kim as our doula for the birth of our daughter.  Kim was exactly the support person we didn’t know we needed during labour and delivery.  Kim came prepared to the birth very familiar with our birth wishes and advocated on our behalf to ensure we had the best birth experience possible.  Kim was very professional and knowledgeable and provided excellent suggestions and guidance during labour –  she even reminded me about the jacuzzi tub I had forgotten about!  Post birth Kim supported us with skin to skin and breastfeeding during the golden hour.  We are so grateful for Kim’s birth support!  With her help we were able to have the birth we wanted without pain medications and limited interventions.  I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kim to any expecting parents.  She is truly a gem!  Thank you again Kim for everything!

We are new to Canada and just had our second child.
I was mentally prepared for a hard time, as we are still adjusting to the new place, the pandemic makes it worse, and there is no family around. But in the midst of these challenges, Yonit proved to be a God’s sent.
After coming back from the hospital, I was weak & frail, but Yonit walked in with a lot of energy and wisdom.
She quickly got a sense of our needs and filled in all the gaps to keep us going. Whether it was cooking us delicious food (with so much love!!) or helping me with my aches and pains, caring for the baby or engaging with my first born, Yonit did it all beautifully.
She helped me understand the baby cues and provide better for her needs.
There were times when I needed emotional support and assurance, Yonit gave all and helped me bounce back to the normalcy of life.
I really commend her for her quick understanding of people and situations, as she gave us all the care while accommodating for our way of life.
She was exceptionally good to my first born, and he grew extremely fond of her and waited for her visit each time ?.
Can’t go without saying that she religiously followed the covid protocols, which gave us so much comfort.
A big big thanks to Yonit for helping us sail through these times ??????.

Love,

Suyin was so amazing that I used her for both of pregnancies. The first pregnancy was for labour doula services and second pregnancy was for sleep consultant and also post partum doula services. I went through 22 hours of labour that Suyin helped me through. Second pregnancy I had trouble sleeping around the middle to end of the pregnancy. She did a full assessment and asked a lot of questions to understand the situation and then gave me a list of recommendations to help me sleep better. I found her suggestions very useful and I still use some of her suggestions even a year after my son was born. During post partum, she made sure I got lots of rest and cooked delicious Chinese healing dishes and soups for me and my family. It was so much stress lifted off my shoulders knowing she was coming and helping to feed us and to make sure the baby was ok. She was so knowledgeable and was always so happy and smiling. I would absolutely recommend her.

As first-time parents, we were extremely nervous with the birth of our son. In our first meeting with Suyin, she thoughtfully asked us about our concerns and worries and upon answering that we lacked confidence in being parents, Suyin confidently said “there’s nothing to worry about because you have me.” That statement could not have been more accurate. From answering questions prenatal, to being our pillar of support post partum, we were blessed to have Suyin as our doula. Not only is she knowledgeable, but she is patient, kind, and caring. Her guidance was always tailored towards our needs and how we wanted to raise our child and when times got tough, her comforting words and smile carried us forward. We learned how to properly breastfeed, bathe, swaddle, change, monitor, and engage with our child. Twelve weeks later, mommy and daddy are more confident parents, and little Nicholas is healthy and active as ever. Thank you Suyin for being nothing short of amazing. N.B. Dads, don’t feel bad about eating some of those homemade lactation cookies (yes, Suyin is a baker as well). Not only do they work (for the mommies), but they are delicious ?

Suyin for postpartum doula!!!

We were extremely anxious about bringing baby #2 home with a 3.5 year old. We asked Suyin to come help us with the first couple nights to help us get settled at home with a newborn again. With my milk not in yet and a baby that wanted to be held throughout the night, Suyin was exactly what we needed!!! She brought baby to me when it was time to feed and helped with his latch and attended to anything I may have needed. After every feed, she would take baby and sooth him and I could go back to sleep and get adequate rest for the next day. She also helped guide me to establish my supply which was a concern after our first baby. She was amazing and we’re so glad we had her help! Suyin is also extremely patient and willing to share her knowledge.

Suyin is MAGIC!!!

Suyin has been an integral part of our baby’s well being from the very beginning. She worked with us during pregnancy to birth to the newborn days and now sleep training support for my toddler. J was always a great napper and sleeper, but when he was about 2 and a half, he suddenly became independent, demanding and stubborn. He was suddenly refusing to go down and refusing to let us leave his room. We were held hostages in his room until he decided that it was time for us to leave. We tried leaving when we said we would and every time he would have a major meltdown. It was frustrating and tiring for both of us. One night, we decided to let him cry it out, but he ended up crying so hysterically that he climbed and fell out of his crib. Head first. We were beyond devastated. That is when we reached out to Suyin, desperate for help. First, she soothed our anxieties and then asked for J’s schedule, habits, emotions, everything- full picture! She then made her suggestions. To be honest, I was skeptical, I was thinking there’s no way her strategies would work, but because we were desperate, we stuck to it and tried what she suggested. Magically, within 3 minutes, J understood and calmed down and told us “bye bye Mommy Daddy.” Everyday since has been just as peaceful and calm. J is able to calm down and go to sleep by himself, knowing that Mommy and Daddy are watching and waiting for him. Suyin is a true miracle worker! She has a true understanding of baby/toddler’s every need and desire! Her calm manner, wealth of knowledge and gentle approach is every parent and baby’s dream!

– J’s very happy parents

Andrea for Postpartum Support – The Best Decision!

Having a first baby during a pandemic brought with it many unknowns, but one of the best decisions we made was connecting with a postpartum doula to support us in our transition to parenthood. Andrea has been key in having a relaxed and wonderful first few weeks with our daughter, filled with learning, rest and discovery. She’s been our personal coach and mentor in all things newborn-related, especially breastfeeding and baby care. With her guidance and wealth of experience and knowledge we now have the confidence and skills to be successful caregivers. We’ve loved having Andrea with us during this special time as a new family. Even our 11-month old puppy has welcomed Andrea as part of our family. If we ever have a second baby we wouldn’t hesitate to have Andrea help us again, she’s been amazing and we can’t recommend her enough!

CAPPA Postpartum Training

Great training Suyin, even though I have already been working as a postpartum doula, it was very informative, well presented and interesting. I loved the games and breakout rooms used to keep the training engaging. Suyin’s passion, expertise and wealth of knowledge went over and above what was expected giving us a strong foundation for the postpartum world.

My husband and I worked with Suyin for about 3 weeks to help our 10 month old son establish independent sleep and a healthy schedule. She listened well to the needs and concerns of our family, and when she provided a detailed action plan, she made sure that we were in agreement with all of it before starting. When sleep work proved to be difficult, Suyin was always respectful, responsive, emotionally supportive and praised the progress we had made, which was so important because we weren’t so sure if we were even making progress. Even though there are still many kinks to work out with our son’s sleep, the work we did with Suyin was a game changer – all of us are getting more sleep!

As an aspiring doula I took my time doing my “future trainer” search. There are so many organizations and trainers out there that you could get so overwhelmed!. During my research, one experience doula told me “contact Suyin Jordan” , so I did. After a couple of minutes talking on the phone with her I felt an special connection. She was so approachable, knowledgeable but very humble at the same time. After I hanged up I said to myself “this is my postpartum doula trainer” I have no doubt about it!! (On a side note, she was the ONLY ONE that took time and interest to talk to me over the phone). After taking the training with her almost 6 months ago Iam working as a pp doula and I cannot feel happier. I heard some stories about doulas finishing their training and asking themselves “well now what do I do ? Where do I start? With Suyin I never had that problem , she guides you all the step of the way, she is your mentor, works with you, keeps training you, she answers all your questions, she calms down your anxiety when starting with your first families. She is always there when you need her and she is happy to share what she knows. What else can I say? She is the real deal. Suyin loves what she does and backs up everything she says with a wealth of knowledge she acquired over the years as a midwife and a nurse and of course her personal experience. I cannot recommend her enough. If you are looking for a doula trainer do not look anywhere else Suyin is the one.!!!

Suyin has tons of knowledge and experience to share. She made the workshop interactive so it wasn’t boring. Also, she paid personal attention to each of us, and equipped us with confidence to handle the work of a doula. The journey doesn’t end when the workshop ended. We went on to be successful doulas, and Suyin continues to support us as our mentor. Really grateful I found Suyin!

a consummate professional

Suyin is a consummate professional and was an indispensable part of my prenatal and postpartum “A Team”. Her postpartum doula colleagues, whom she personally trained and I had the pleasure of meeting, are also excellent. I frankly already miss Suyin and her confident and capable care for both my first son and myself for the time that she was with me. Her background as a midwife in the UK affords her a vastness of knowledge & credibility that far exceeds other ‘night nurses’ you may be interviewing. She is worth every penny of her higher price point and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone and everyone. She essentially gave me a crash course in newborn care that provided me with tremendous confidence & allowed me to successfully exclusively breast feed. She is always on time, extremely helpful and giving of herself, and intuitively supportive from both a mental and physical wellbeing perspective. Suyin is a godsend.

Suyin is beyond amazing! Not only does she provide top notch care for your baby, but she is a new parent coach – always showing encouragement and positivity. She is extremely knowledgeable and is there for you (even on the off hours) to answer your questions. I could not imagine coming home post pregnancy without her. Thank you so much Suyin. I am so grateful to have had your help and support!

I did not consider hiring any help before I delivered the baby thinking I could do it all. I did survive, physically, the first two months. Unfortunately with a colicky high need baby, I developed a very bad case of postpartum depression by week 8.  In a desperate effort to feel better, I reached out to my friends and asked for referral for someone trustworthy to help for a week just so that I can take a break during the day. Suyin’s name came highly recommended. My friend said “she’s god sent.” And “she’s very booked. But even if you can only hire her for one day, it will make a world of a difference.” As I reflect on the few days we had her here, and the tremendous support she gave me the following 5 months, I can vouch for both statements. In addition to the fact that Suyin was VERY good with my then colicky baby (Suyin was the first person to make my always miserable baby smile, that’s how good she is): – She cares for the mom just as much as the baby.  On the first day she was here, she worked on establishing my confidence as a first time mom by teaching me techniques to sooth my baby to sleep and reassuring me that I am doing great, and pointing out moments when my baby was showing love for me.  It was the first time since the baby was born that I felt empowered knowing that I have the tool to sooth my child instead of letting her cry for hours and feeling completely helpless. – Suyin is very professional, generous, and caring.  She’s always on time. VERY responsive with emails and messages. Even though we only used her for a few days, we talk on a weekly if not daily basis for the months that followed. She messages me to make sure I am doing ok. She’s my go-to person when I have any baby related questions.   – Suyin is flexible in her approach. She worked with us to develop a plan we feel comfortable (we worked with another sleep consultant before and she’s very firm about her way or the highway even though her way clearly didn’t work for us).

We were lucky enough to have Suyin as both our birth and postpartum doula. She was SO approachable, knowledgable, reassuring and caring. Suyin communicated with us all the time; even when she was on vacation she checked in with us! Suyin taught us a lot and with her knowledge and medical background, it was very easy to trust her. As first time parents, we really needed her guidance through a complicated pregnancy. I am so thankful that Suyin was with us for my baby’s birth. It was a long labour, and as a first time Mom, I didn’t know what to expect. Suyin was so gentle, present and encouraging. When we got home, Suyin took care of Baby, mine and my husband’s needs constantly! I couldn’t imagine going through that whole experience without Suyin’s help! And also as a bonus, her cooking is delicious! 🙂

Long before our baby was born, Suyin checked in with us, giving reassurances and answering questions along the way. She and her team drew on their expertise and knowledge to offer excellent postnatal support. We are so grateful to have been guided through the exhilarating and daunting days of newborn care and given the chance to rest and recuperate. She is now “Auntie Suyin” as she quickly put us at ease welcoming her into our home, and entrusting her with our precious daughter. How do you measure peace of mind, or confidence when embarking on a big journey? Truly, the help of Cherry Blossom Doulas changed our lives!

Suyin is amazing, we are so lucky to have her as our birth doula. She is so patient in answering our questions during the pregnancy and so helpful in reducing the physical discomfort and my anxiety. Her experience as a midwife in the UK makes her so knowledgeable which helped me greatly in going through the complicated labor that I went through . I didn’t take epidural during the induction for 16 hours and I still felt good because of her. Couldn’t have done it without her! And she keeps asking us if everything’s ok and visiting us after that! Highly recommend her! Wonderful experience!

We are more than grateful to have Suyin as our postpartum doula for the past month and I highly (more than highly, actually!) recommend her to other families – whether you just had a newborn recently or if you have a a toddler AND a newborn! When I first met Suyin, I was so impressed with her knowledge, patience and her educational/career background. The trust was built between us almost immediately as I saw how loving, caring and patient she was with my 1 week old baby. I felt comfortable knowing that my baby would be in her good care at nights and I was able to get as much rest as I could (and I needed the sleep badly). Suyin always asked my husband and I how we feel physically and emotionally (I love how she knows new dads need some encouragement too!). I remembered spending almost an hour every night talking to Suyin – about my anxiety, worries, thoughts and other issues/questions that I had. She would listen attentively and address all my concerns precisely. She was so encouraging and her reassurance helped me through the baby blue stage in which I am SO thankful for. Whenever I had questions & texted her – she would respond right away. I cannot imagine how I would manage without Suyin. Not only I feel like I’ve learned so much from her but I also feel like I’ve gained a dear friend! She truly is passionate in helping families going through the biggest transition and she will be there for you. I definitely highly recommend her to other families!

Suyin is amazing. She is so knowledgeable, patient and caring. She went above and beyond in helping my wife and I to go through the first couple of weeks after our baby was born. We first asked Suyin to come for a few days and then my wife and I decided to ask her to come help us more often. Suyin answered all of our questions and she gave us so much encouragement and reassurance. Sometimes as first time parents, you just need some encouragement and trust that you are doing the best for your baby. She would always tell us “You guys are the best parents for the baby.” and this touched our hearts. We highly recommend Suyin to other families and we are not hesitate to reach out to her again in future! I would love to give her a 10-star rating!

We can’t say enough good things about Suyin’s services! Suyin was our birth doula and post partum doula, but even before the baby was born, she was so caring! She educated and comforted us throughout a complicated pregnancy. She was there for us ALWAYS. She even checked in on us after an appointment even though she was on vacation! The information that was provided during the prenatal visits was so useful and it really helped to guide our decisions for our birth plan and also during the actual birth. Having Suyin’s knowledge really helped with our stress.

Suyin made the birthing process as comfortable as that situation can be. We were induced and had multiple appointments for check ups and Suyin was there every time. She was so amazing that when it came time for the epidural and only one person was allowed to be in the room, I kicked my husband out! She really kept me a lot calmer than I would’ve been! Our labour took 40 HOURS and Suyin was there with us the whole time! We couldn’t have done it without her guidance, reassurance, and support!

When we got home, Suyin supported the baby and encouraged us to sleep! As first time parents, the adjustment of bringing a new life home carried a steep learning curve. Suyin helped in any way that she could when she was around. When she wasn’t at the house, she kept in constant contact with us to ensure that we were ok. Not only did she take care of Mommy, Daddy and Baby- she even took care of all the requests of the grandparents as well! Suyin is also an amazing cook. She made well balanced, nourishing meals for our family.

We couldn’t be happier with Suyin. She very easily became a part of our family. She was gentle, caring, educated and SO helpful to us. I don’t think we could have done this without her! Looking back now, her support in the early days was invaluable and we are so glad that she was a part of our journey into parenthood!

Su Yin has a gift for what she does. She is one of the most compassionate people I have ever met. I am truly grateful that I was able to have her support when I came home with my second child. Not only was she able to help me care for my newborn, I was able to care for myself and heal quickly due to her incredible support. Su Yin went above and beyond to make sure my entire family’s needs were met during this wonderful yet challenging time. I am forever grateful for the professional help that Su Yin provided. Her personable care made it feel like she was a long-time friend on a journey with me. I don’t know what I would have done without her. I’d recommend her services in a heartbeat!

We are grateful to have had Su Yin as our postpartum doula and highly recommend her for other families!  We are first time parents and were impressed with her training and background as a nurse and midwife. Su Yin helped us with overnights when we first brought our newborn home, it saved us to have trusted help so we could get some rest and recover from the hospital stay.  She helped us with “firsts” like bathing and we learned practical things like how to soothe the baby and washing/sterilizing pump and formula equipment just by watching her.  It was nice to have someone to ask and rely on so it was less overwhelming to do everything for the first time.  I also appreciated her company and conversation during those late night feeds, the tips and reassurance were helpful.  She also did some light chores for us overnight and was always proactive to help where she could, not just with baby.  Her approach is very warm and practical – she would ask questions to see how I was doing (even before baby was born) and offered suggestions if needed, it struck a good balance of helpful and supportive.  She was also very flexible with the hours we needed, helping relieve anxiety over not knowing what we needed beforehand.  We also love that she stayed in touch with us after our hours to provide support and sometimes the check-in would come just as we were navigating a new challenge.  Su Yin was an essential part of our start in parenthood – she is reliable, practical and caring.

It was wonderful to have Su Yin’s support after the birth of our second daughter. She was extremely professional, caring and is truly passionate about what she does. I was completely comfortable having her look after my baby both during the day and at night giving me a much needed break and sleep!

Thank you Su Yin!

As first-time parents, we found Su Yin’s postpartum help during the first 5 weeks after our son’s birth to be instrumental in successfully dealing with all the adjustments of new parenthood.  Su Yin was proactive in checking up with us leading up to our son’s birth, and she was incredibly responsive to all of our questions, whether it was an email at night, or a WhatsApp message in the morning.  Because of her medical training, Su Yin was able to put us at ease and advise us on our son’s health and behaviour.  She gave us helpful, practical tips and always approached all situations with patience and kindness.  Su Yin also prepared healthy, delicious meals that followed traditional Chinese dietary recommendations for new moms, and she helped with light housework without any prompting.  We cannot thank Su Yin enough and highly recommend her as a postpartum doula.

We brought Su Yin into our home to help our family after our second child arrived,  and my husband was going back to work, which includes a fair bit of travel.  I was tired, having trouble feeding, pumping many times a day and had to care for the baby, my 3 year old and myself.  We were immediately comfortable welcoming Su Yin into our home and right away helped me.  She would come in and take the baby, feed or calm and get him to sleep, whatever he needed and I could just go and shower, eat, or sleep.  She made sure I had eaten, she made us some (yummy) dinners.  She was lovely to chat with.  I would recommend her to any family.  Sometimes you just need a little extra support and she was just great.

I hired Su Yin for overnight doula services for my second daughter as it was tough for my husband and I with my first daughter.  Plus I had a hard time healing after my first birth.  A friend highly recommended Su Yin, once I met them at a home consultation I immediately felt comfortable and felt that I could trust her with my newborn.  She were very warm, friendly, genuine, great energy and knowledgeable.

Su Yin started the night I came home with my daughter and it was a blessing.  She arrived at bedtime and took my daughter while I went to bed to try and get some much needed sleep.  She came only when a feeding was required.  Not only did she make me feel comfortable someone trustworthy and reliable was with my daughter as I tried to rest and recuperate, they where helpful in so many other ways.  During the feeding times, she guided me through breastfeeding as I had a lot of issues with latching with my first little one.  My milk came in quickly and my daughter is a champion latcher all thanks to these two.  In addition, she talked to me about sleep practices and really any questions I had about a newborn that many of us struggle to find answers for when we bring them home.  She was so helpful that once we finished the week my husband and I looked at each other and said lets have her for another week!

I can go on and on about Su Yin, she genuinely cares and is a one stop shop for all doula services anybody needs.  She helped me build confidence and set me in the right direction with my newborn.  Thank you so much, I feel like I have built a friendship with her and would recommend her over and over again.  Sometimes I try to think of excuses so I can hire her again 🙂

Our experience with Su Yin was great as our birth doula.  It was our first baby so we had a lot of questions.  She took the time to meet us in person and answer all of our questions.  She is very cheerful and patient, at no point we felt rushed.  She is also very responsive to phone calls and messages.  Her presence was very reassuring during the delivery process.  Also since she has a medical background, she was able to explain to us what the doctor and the nurse are doing and demystify some of the medical term used.  She also checks up with us when we were close to the delivery date.  She followed up also during post partum.  We would high recommend her to anyone requiring doula services.

Su Yin was referred to us around a week after our daughter was born. At that time my wife and I were exhausted and confused by our daughter, mainly because there was much disconnection between the way that we were taught to handle and the reality.  During the several visits that Su Yin came over,  she offered professional recommendations based on our daughter’s behaviour,  after which we regained confidence as parents and the anxiety level was lowered.  I would recommend Su Yin to other parents who wants hands-on knowledge with their newborns.

My husband and I loved working with Su Yin.  She is so friendly and easy to talk to. And we loved that she understood the technical side of labour and not just how to cope emotionally.  She encouraged us to ask her questions anytime before and after labour and always responded promptly.  During labour she was very attentive and tried various coping techniques.  She kept my husband and I calm and made sure I was as comfortable as could be.  In our first meeting after signing on with her, she went through very thorough questions to understand our birth plan and to help us think of things we never thought of before.  Although I ended up with a c section, she stayed throughout until the baby was born to make sure baby and I were doing well.  She also had a follow up visit at home to see how we were doing.  I would definitely recommend Su Yin as a labour doula.

Suyin’s post partum service has come to a close and both my husband and I can’t have anymore wonderful things to say about her. She provided the much needed support and expertise required. It was especially helpful to have her around when both baby and I had to stay a bit longer at the hospital. She was able to help me cope emotionally and physically a bit better. I will not hesitate to use her again in the future or refer her to any of my friends.

Satisfied Mom

From the moment we met, my husband and I knew that Su Yin would be the perfect fit for our growing family. Her professionalism, knowledge, doula training and extensive nursing background set her apart from her peers. Her energy, patience, willingness to “jump right in” and genuine love for our family won our hearts! We are forever grateful for the love and care Su Yin showered upon our family following the birth of our second daughter by c-section. My emotional and physical recovery during those early weeks were possible in large part due to the care Su Yin provided. She is a fellow mother, a trusted confidante, an amazing chef, a passionate child caregiver and a much needed friend at a most challenging time. Thank you, Su Yin!!!

We were referred to Su Yin about 2 weeks before our baby was due. Even after attended several baby prenatal classes, we know we needed professional help, someone with nursing and baby-care background.

Su Yin was the perfect choice, the first meeting she presented her credentials as well as criminal background check. Having worked in England as a registered nurse who worked in maternity ward definitely put us at ease.

As first time parents, we learned a great deal of baby care from Su Yin. From the first baby bath to skin rash problems, Su Yin was able to guide us from her past experience. As a mother of two herself, she had plenty of first-hand experience and we are extremely grateful for the help she provided.

In short, if you are in need of doula or baby care, Su Yin would be perfect choice. Even though its only for a month, we had an excellent experience and are so thankful for all the help and tips we received.

Friendly, trustworthy and reliable!

Client and first time mum

We are really glad that we hired Su Yin as our doula for the birth of our little girl. We were first time parents and had no idea what we were doing (or just really nervous about our knowledge) and having Su Yin support us during that time helped with our transition as parents, learn new skills, and eased my recovery. Su Yin is both knowledgeable and professional which helped us build our confidence in her. She also has a bubbly character which eases our anxiety, and as an added bonus she is a pretty good cook!

Second time mom

My husband and I are the type of people who like to do everything ourselves. But when my second daughter arrived with a big appetite and a distaste for sleeping, it finally became apparent that we needed some professional help. It really eased our minds after learning about Su Yin’s background in nursing and midwifery. We were overjoyed that she turned out to be a warm, easy-going and knowledgeable person whom both my children adore. It was one of the best decisions I’ve made to have her in our children’s life.

First time mom

I wish I had asked Su Yin for help right after the delivery of our daughter–it would have been a lot less challenging. But fortunately, we had her help for the second month of my daughter’s life.  Su Yin is very warm and knowledgeable, and her calming presence was always reassuring.  I’d highly recommend her to anyone with a newborn, especially first-time parents.

First time mum

I had the pleasure of having Su Yin Jordan as my post-partum doula this year in February.  My daughter had a 10-day stretch where she wasn’t breastfeeding or sleeping well, and Su Yin worked her magic in helping us and teaching us how to soothe and settle her.

Su Yin is extremely professional, always punctual,  and has a calming presence.   She has a great listening ear, and provides much advice.  She tries to help as much as possible, even at home she is willing to text us back with solutions to our questions.

As a trained nurse practitioner, I had no qualms asking her medical advice when I felt inflammation/lumps in my breast during breastfeeding.  She quickly told me how to get rid of the lumps which worked wonders.

Lastly, Su Yin provided overnight care to our daughter which brought much sleep and relief to us overtired parents.

I would undoubtedly recommend this caring lady to help you with your postpartum needs.

Happy, confident and breastfeeding mum

Su Yin is an extremely caring and nurturing person.  From the moment Su Yin came to our home, my husband and I felt extremely comfortable, as did our daughter.  We are first time parents with no previous experience caring for a newborn, and I was prescribed several medications as a result of the complications that I experienced during labour.  Su Yin’s expertise, knowledge and support allowed us to greatly enjoy this special time with our daughter in the midst of potentially overwhelming circumstances.  We find Su Yin to be extremely compassionate, caring, supportive, and helpful and we will recommend her to anyone that needs doula services.

Client, mum and friend

You were so very supportive before and after I had my boys.  No ordinary midwife, you have become a true friend.  Never ever judgemental, pure supportiveness, kindness and understanding.  You are a lovely woman and I have only known you give 100 percent to anything you do.

Friend, colleague and satisfied mum

I have known Su Yin for over 20 years – both professionally and personally.  As a fellow nurse I have always been impressed by Su Yin’s intelligence, professionalism and drive.  She is capable, knowledgeable, reliable and trustworthy and a loyal friend.  Such is my trust in Su Yin that it was her I asked to be my midwife during the birth of my second child – the most relaxed and straightforward of all births which resulted in the most contented, easy baby – something I put down to feeling completely at ease with my midwife.  I would have no hesitation in recommending Su Yin as a doula – she has a wealth of knowledge and experience to help guide and support you throughout your pregnancy and beyond.
