Kaila Stephens Newborn Care Specialist in Pleasanton, CA

Kaila is simply amazing. She was with our family for the first ~15 weeks after our daughter was born (initially for 10 weeks but we loved her so much we extended). As first time parents we were nervous and a little crazed when our little one was born early at 38 weeks - from the moment she entered our home Kaila brought a calming warm energy. Not only was she incredibly sweet with our daughter, she was kind and supportive of us. We had great peace of mind knowing our little one was well cared for at night (and we got much needed rest!). Additionally in her capacity as a certified lactation consultant she gave advice and support, helping us monitor baby’s weight and advising on pumping / increasing supply when we struggled with breastfeeding. Kaila was sweet with our pups as well - she truly became a part of our family. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to help us through our first few months adapting as new parents. We’re more than happy to recommend her to any family looking for a reliable, kind and knowledgeable caretaker!

Kaila was the best thing that happened to our family post partum!!! We had her come the day after our baby boy was born, and she immediately eased our tired minds and hearts. We weren't the type of couple that did lots of research pre-baby, but that was OK (only) because Kaila came in and taught us EVERYTHING - from bottle sterilization, to pumping and how to measure the flanges, to newborn behavior and sleep patterns, to literally how to change a diaper.. She taught me how to breast feed and pump, and was supportive through my struggles. I get emotional even just thinking about HOW crucial having her help was. She was always on time and was flexible when we needed to increase hours. You can tell she really loves what she does which is so important in my opinion! We were originally contracted to work with her for 6 weeks but ended up extending our time because we found soooo much value in working with her. The peace of mind that we could rest at night without worrying about our baby was absolutely priceless. If we have a second child, we will 10000% work with Kaila again, and I recommend using her to every person I know who is currently pregnant or thinking about becoming pregnant. Getting help with a baby during the night is pricey, but it's hands down the best, most important money we've ever spent.

It was such a pleasure working with Kaila! She stayed with our newborn twice a week overnight so that mom could catch some consolidated sleep. Kaila helped us with some light house chores like washing bottles and baby laundry. She helped us make it through those tough early months of newborn life!
