Find a Night Nanny Near Me in St. Joseph, MO

I am a mom of 4 and grandmother of 7. I am a RN having working in Labor & Delivery, Postpartum, Nursery and NICU. I have been an LC for 10+ years. I have a passion for assisting mom and families to develop a plan with feeding that work for mom and that helps her reach her goals.

Hello families, my name is Misty Morgan and I am a seasoned Postpartum Doula, Newborn Care Specialist (formerly known as a night nurse), Sleep Consultant and New Parent Coach located in Kansas City, MO with over twenty years of experience. I have cared for hundreds of infants and their families. My career began in Orange County, CA while also traveling nationwide to support families. I embody respectful and responsive care through nurturing practices. I have extensive experience with multiples, medically fragile infants, hospice care, gentle sleep training, 24/7 care, private travel and nursery set up. I have the experience to help make your fourth trimester as stress free as possible. I will help with bonding, healing, trusting your natural parental instincts and learning along the way. I might be a wealth of knowledge, but I will not push anything onto you. This is your time to feel supported and loved while you transition into this new phase of your family. I cater my care to you. I do not have one specific style as I need to be able to adjust as things change or your needs change. I consider myself to be nurturing, able to multitask, calm in emergencies, organized, great at communicating, able to read a room, confident in the care that I provide and always eager to keep learning. Prior to working overnights, I was a household manager and long term nanny. I have a family of nine, former licensed foster home, cpr and first aid certified as well. I have trained with CAPPA, Summer Hartman and alongside a NICU nurse ten hours a day for two months caring for twins. That hands on experience out weighs any course I have taken since. Please feel free to reach out to me with any of your family's needs.

Did you know that a mother does not see her doctor until four to six weeks postpartum? Many health issues can arise during that period; it's comforting to know that your questions can be answered and problems addressed with a medical trained postpartum doula. I want to bring home health care back to its roots with at-home follow up care for families following birth. To have a trained medical profession in your home teaching you how to care for your newborn baby, while also caring for your entire family is a rare gift. ​ Acupuncturists undergo four years of Eastern medical training which includes three years of Western medical training. ​​ ​I also happen to be a baby expert, caring for over 105 babies and being a single parent foster parent to a set of 3 month old twin baby girls. If there's one thing I know, it's the language of babies. A few examples of what I offer my families include: -Videos with helpful techniques such as putting on a nipple shield, pace bottle feeding, or multiple options for newborn carriers - Newborn care - Bottle washing, sterilizing, CDC guidelines for bottle care - Infant laundry and nursery set-up - Nighttime care - Errand running - Organizing anything Marie Kondo style - Dietary suggestions to help heal the post birth body, to address joint pain and for lactation support - Cooking healthy meals and snacks for family - Keeping mom hydrated, rested and cared for - Create a daily feeding schedule for Mom/baby that optimizes Mom's ability to rest and restore her body - Researched information on environmental and safe baby-care products and topics - In-home acupuncture treatments which aren’t extra cost, they come as a perk to me being your doula :)

I have been working with families for 28 years. I am a DONA trained Postpartum Doula, an Advanced Newborn Care Specialist, a Certified Nurse Assistant, an Infant & Toddler Sleep Trainer, a Stillbirthday Certified Birth & Bereavement Doula, and a Parent Coach, solving behavior and sleep issues in children of all ages with personalized guidance.

My passion as a doula is empowering pregnant women to take control of their prenatal preparation. I learned with my first pregnancy that birth is a huge physical feat, so I give you tools and simple movement exercises (that I wish I had back then!) which will train and balance your body specifically for the task at hand: pregnancy, birth, and recovery. I hired a doula for my first two births and I was SO grateful for that decision!! I gave birth at a free-standing birth center, with the support of her and my spouse. If it wasn't for my doula, I know I would not have made it through the marathon of labor! I came away feeling supported and strong. I was certified as a doula in 2016 and then in 2022 trained as a Body Ready Method Pro & Childbirth Educator. My wish is for everyone to be able to bring their baby into the world feeling supported, cared for, and prepared. I believe in the empowerment that comes from taking charge of your own labor which reveals a deeper strength you didn't know was there. You deserve a strong support system so that you can have a beautiful birth experience.

I’m a certified postpartum doula, and experienced mama of three. In my free time I enjoy gardening, painting and reading. My passion is to support parents, offering them the best evidence-based care to build their confidence and enhance their overall well-being during this precious time. Whether it's providing emotional encouragement, practical support or simply a listening ear, I am committed to making your postpartum experience as positive and fulfilling as possible.
