​HELPING YOU

We’ll  help by taking care of you and your baby during the first weeks after your baby’s birth. We stay nearby baby while you:

• Rest or nap, while we tidy up
• Heal from childbirth and/or adjust to life with your newborn,
• Eat healthy, delicious meals we prepare,
• Shower, take care of yourself after delivery,
• Take a break from caring for your other children while we do
• and more.

​HELPING BABY

We’ll help you learn about all the things newborns do and need. We'll help you in:

• Feeding your baby: breast and bottle,
• Reading your baby’s signs for so many things such as: needing to eat or sleep, or beginning to wake up
• Learning ways to do these things and much more with your baby:
  • be safe while asleep and awake,  
  • calm during fussy times,
  • give baths or massages,
  • wear in baby carriers,
  • play with and find Montessori ways of being with your baby
  • most of all: enjoy your baby!

HELPING THE REST OF YOUR FAMILY

We are also there to help partners and siblings (even pets!) adjust to and care for their new baby too.
