How can I help?
Are you looking for support during the day so you can rest, bond with your new baby, have a shower, go to appointments, or take care of your other children? Or maybe the sleepless nights are keeping you from relaxing and enjoying your baby during the day.
Would you benefit from guidance while learning to breast or bottle feed, burp, diaper, bathe, swaddle, or soothe and comfort your newborn?
Are you concerned about safe sleep and other precautions? I am prepared with information from the AAP and CDC.
Is your little one colicky? Let me give your arms a rest.
Twins or multiples? My favorite!
