A friendly ear

Marraine Tendresse offers respite to parents of newborn babies, an open ear, and help to reconcile some aspects of their new situation as harmoniously as possible.

I was fortunate enough to meet two sponsors, and I was really impressed: they are extraordinary, loving, gentle, and generous women. I greatly appreciated their support, especially as they made no judgments on me or my approach.

the baby

My sponsor is a warm, dynamic, and enthusiastic person. She very quickly got involved with us, whether by listening, sharing her experience, or proactively caring for our baby, always in line with our expectations and ways of doing things.

Ma marraine est quelqu’un de chaleureux, dynamique et enthousiaste. Elle s’est très vite impliquée auprès de nous que ce soit par son écoute, partage d’expérience ou sa proactivité pour donner les soins à notre petite, et ce toujours selon nos attentes et nos façons de faire.
