About me

Cathie Li Newborn Care Specialist | Night Nanny / Postpartum Support | Confinement Cooking Loving newborns with my whole heart—I aim to be their very first and best friend in life. With over 10 years of experience caring for 50+ babies, I specialize in 24-hour live-in newborn care during the first 30–90 days. I help establish gentle, healthy routines for feeding, sleeping, and soothing, while also supporting the birthing parent through emotional and physical recovery. I offer: • Newborn care and routine support • Gentle guidance with breastfeeding and sleep • Baby laundry, bottle sanitizing, nursery organization • Non-judgmental support and encouragement • Referrals to trusted professionals if needed I’m also a passionate cook, trained in traditional Chinese postpartum (confinement) meals—especially Cantonese, Shanghainese, and Japanese styles—that promote healing and healthy milk supply. I care deeply, listen with empathy, and support every family with warmth, patience, and love.
