Empowering Families With Simple Solutions & Expert Guidance
What is a Newborn Care Specialist?
A Newborn Care Specialist is a professional caregiver who helps with the wonderful, yet sometimes overwhelming, experience of bringing home a new baby. The most important job for the NCS is the care and protection of the baby through the night. In addition she supports new parents by suggesting approaches on basic newborn care, including issues regarding breastfeeding and normal sleep schedules. Her primary focus is to provide a calm, confident and safe environment for both babies and parents.
NEWBORN CARE SERVICES
Hiring an NCS is a very important decision but it’s also a very personal one. Having someone in your home, at the most vulnerable time of your life, requires a person who has exceptional communication skills. My clients know that they can trust me. They need to know that no matter what choices they make with their postpartum experience, they have someone who will respect them. Communication is paramount for me in the interview process and beyond.
Itsy Bitsy offers all inclusive perinatal support. Birth support services, Prenatal classes, Postpartum care, Lactation support and education, and Sleep conditioning/training services.
BIRTH DOULA SUPPORT
As a doula it is not only my job to provide nurturing physical and emotional support during childbirth, but also to equip each family ahead of time with the knowledge and tools to feel confident going into birth. I believe this makes all the difference in the outcome.
LACTATION EDUCATION
Itsy Bitsy has Certificated Lactation Educator Counselor (CLEC) to help with your breastfeeding needs. A lactation educator will ensure that each nursing mother has the breastfeeding support she needs, to establish a healthy/happy breastfeeding relationship from the start. Lactation Educators can be requested in conjunction with our newborn care services.
SLEEP TRAINING SERVICES
Getting your baby to sleep through night is one of the most beloved gifts any parent could ask for. With the right plan, fit for each child, most babies can be sleep trained around 18 weeks, sometimes sooner.
