MY STORY

Twenty years of listening closely.

For two decades, I have cared for children from their first days of life through adolescence. Again and again, I have learned that exceptional care begins with attention: noticing the smallest changes, understanding what a baby may be communicating, recognizing when a parent needs reassurance, and knowing when quiet support is more useful than another opinion.

I hold a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education and Psychology and am a Certified Newborn Care Specialist and CAPPA-trained New Parent Educator. Those qualifications give me a strong foundation, but families and children have been my greatest teachers.

I have supported singletons and twins, breastfeeding and formula-feeding families, first-time and experienced parents, and homes with older siblings adjusting to a new arrival. I have worked overnight, on 24-hour and rotational schedules, in temporary placements, and throughout extensive domestic and international travel.

Whatever the setting, my role remains the same: to bring thoughtful preparation, gentle expertise, and a calm presence into the home.

HOW I CARE

Expertise should feel reassuring, never imposing.

I arrive with experience, knowledge, and a plan—but never with the assumption that one method belongs in every home.

I observe your baby, listen to your priorities, and work collaboratively with parents, pediatric providers, lactation professionals, household staff, and other caregivers. Together, we create practical rhythms that protect rest, support feeding, encourage development, and feel natural within your family’s life.

Babies are individuals. Parents deserve to be heard. Peaceful nights begin with trust, not rigid rules.
