What I Offer
DAYTIME VISIT (between 8am and 8pm)
-
Newborn care, so you can focus on rest and recovery
-
Meal and snack preparation. I can cook your favourites, or some of my own specialties.
-
Emotional support. I’m here to lend a supportive ear while you process your birth and transition to this new phase of parenthood.
-
Education. I provide you with evidence-based guidance on newborn care, lactation, feeding and postpartum healing. I will always refer you out to a specialist when needed.
-
Support for the family, including partners, siblings and animals. A new baby is a transition for everyone!
-
Light household work. Let me take a load off your plate! I’ll take care of the baby’s laundry, tidy up, keep feeding and pumping equipment clean, and help with other practical household chores.
SUNRISE VISIT (3-4 hour visit, beginning as early as 6:30am)
I’ll come to your home early in the morning, to help you with the morning rush.
I can get your coffee going, take care of the baby while you and/or older siblings get ready for the day, and provide new parents with emotional support and check-ins when needed. This is especially ideal for parents with older siblings, chaotic mornings, or if you just want to get some rest after a long night with your baby.
NIGHTTIME VISIT (between 8pm and 8am)
Let me take the night shift with your baby, so that you can get a good night’s sleep.
During a nighttime care visit, I’ll handle feeding, changing and soothing your baby. If you’re breastfeeding, I can bring them to you for feedings, or feed them pumped milk. I’ll also make sure you have clean bottles, feeding supplies, and laundry ready for your baby in the morning.
Reach out to me if you’d like to customize a different package! We can figure out what would work best for you.
