What Our Clients Are Saying?

“When my husband and I found out we were pregnant, we knew we needed extra help, (especially at night), was a necessity, so we found Gentle Giraffes. The newborn care specialists we worked with were reliable, caring and professional.”

~ Emily, Brookline

“We used Erin for the birth of our third daughter, Freja. It was our first time using a Newborn Care Specialist, and honestly, our only question has been why didn’t do it for our others!”

~ Amanda, Jamaica Plain

“When you are leaving your child in someone else’s care, especially a newborn, you need to have the full confidence in the caregiver – The Gentle Giraffes team epitomized that confidence.”

~ Ana, Cambridge
