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.

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.

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!

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!

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).

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.

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.

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! 🙂

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.!!! Andrea L

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!

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.

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,
Amrita

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!

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.

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!!

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!

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.

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!
