What Is A Baby Nurse?
A baby nurse is someone who specializes in care for newborns to babies 1 year in age. A baby nurse can help establish a bedtime routine, organize the nursery, help with feedings, and make sure you are taken care of and well fed in the first few days after returning home from the hospital. A baby nurse can also show you how to deal with common issues such as colic, gas and excessive crying, any one of which can stress out first-time parents.
My Services
My care for babies includes; feeding; swaddling; bathing; umbilical cord and circumcision care; baby laundry; accompanying parents to doctor appointments; assisting with breastfeeding; recommending products, and much more. I am experienced in identifying each baby’s unique needs and developing eating, sleeping, and wake schedules that blend seamlessly with each family’s lifestyle.
