I'm a trained Newborn Care and Sleep Specialist, caring for babies from birth through six months old. I'm available for either daytime care, overnights, as well as sleep coaching. ~ My joy is nurturing new families both emotionally and practically. ~ Responsible adult with prior medical and health education experience. ~ Child/Baby First Aid, CPR & AED certification. Background checked annually. ~ Well-versed in establishing healthy routines that lead to independent sleep by 4 to 6 months old. ~ Vaccinated for COVID (plus 4 boosters), Tdap, Hep A & B, Flu, Pneumonia, and RSV. ~ Great with pets including large-breed dogs. ~ Excellent current newborn care references. In addition to being a parent and grandparent, I was a Medical Assistant / X-ray tech in my 20's and 30's, then founded and ran a medical nonprofit organization for almost twenty years. Now retired from the nonprofit sector - I became a Newborn Care Specialist because I absolutely love being around brand new humans. I completed Foundational Newborn Care Specialist and Sleep Solutions training with Newborn Care Solutions Institute and study care and sleep science continuously. I've worked with more than 50 families just like yours and I'm proud to have more than 30 five-star reviews from very satisfied parents! Please visit my website Newbornable.com to learn more about my background, training, qualifications, and care philosophy. I look forward to connecting with you!

I provide in-home "hands on" newborn care either daytime or overnights. I also offer Newborn Sleep Coaching. After an initial face-to-face consult in your home, we'll communicate regularly via text or phone as you and your little one navigate the amazing evolution in his/her sleep over the first few months.
