What to Expect:

A typical shift is 10:30pm–6:30am (hours are flexible).
First night we will go over feeding plan, swaddles, sound machine, monitor, binki plan, app or notes to record info, hand off plan, your expectations and questions.
I arrive shortly before 10:30. We will discuss how the day went and share updates. Some choose to send a text update before I arrive to take advantage of the sleep!
We will discuss micro habits, the day feeding schedule, awake windows, routines at bedtime, sleep signs, if you choose.
Parents go to sleep, and I'm on duty to feed/change/soothe your baby throughout the night, while establishing good sleep habits from day one.
By 6:30am, all bottles/pump parts will be washed, and I will hand over the baby or the baby monitor, leaving you with a detailed log about how the night went.
This service is extremely flexible to accommodate each family's needs/wants.

Personal Life:

Married mother of two children, Lexi (26) and Liam (16).
Mom to a four-legged baby, Bruiser, a 9 year old Morkie.
We live in Mansfield MA. Lexi is also an NCS and is currently living in Vermont doing live-in newborn care. Liam is a sophomore at Catholic Memorial with a love for playing the game of football.
When not at work I love to read/listen to books, (I am part of two book clubs!) take a yoga/pilates class, walk with friends, and go to Liam's sporting events with our whole extended family.
