As someone who has professionally supported growing families for 15 years, I am very particular with whom I refer my clients (I work within the birthing community in Boulder and Denver with Balanced Beginnings Doulas and work within the hospital, birth center, and homebirth settings) to for childcare and Magda is one of the few! She really goes above and beyond, is extremely knowledgeable and compassionate with little ones of all ages, trustworthy, and follows every families lead, which is so important when working with newborns.
As someone who is highly involved with newborns on a day-to-day basis, I love that Magda is always staying up to date on options for families to try (feeding, nutrition, nap and bed time, play time etc.) because every baby and family is unique. In addition to helping a few of my clients immensely, Magda has also watched my son (who is ten months old) and has built an amazing connection with him. His face always lights up when she walks through our front door and is always sad when she leaves. I truly wish there were more professionals like Magda in our community, whom serve families with children of all ages. Any family that hires Magda is truly blessed and I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for her.
When I first met Magda, she was taking tremendous care of a past client of mine and their two children. One of these children is higher needs due to having heart disease and Magda did everything within her power so that this child could exceed physical, cognitive, and emotional milestones. Magda would even take this child to physical therapy appointments and would update the parents on her progress. Seeing Magda in action is so remarkable – she will do anything to make the experience the most satisfying for both children and parents.
Most recently, I referred Magda to a birth client of mine who had two twin girls and was limited on resources. Magda knew of the situation and came to the rescue to assist me postpartum with this family and is doing an amazing job following the family’s lead. I am not sure what this family would do without Magda’s non-judgmental approach and warm heart.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to me regarding this candidate. She will go above and beyond with every family she works with and her value is priceless!
