About me

Hi expecting parents!

I started providing postpartum support in Feb 2017 but have been an infant nanny since 2005 and a mom of 2 since 2008 :) I provide non judgmental support, evidence based education, and guidance through the 4th trimester all while helping parents get some much needed rest ✨️ My goal is to help parents feel comfortable and confident in their parenting abilities!

Service introduction

I'm a CPR certified Newborn Care Specialist, New Parent Educator, Lactation Educator Counselor, Postpartum Doula and former nanny with 20yrs of experience working with families in Los Angeles. My approach is very gentle and educational. I don't just come in and take over (unless that's what you need!) I love to include the parents I work with in everything I do so they feel comfortable and confident during the times I'm not there. My goal is to educate, guide and support parents through the 4th trimester while helping them get some much needed rest!
