My Story

savvy mama mentor

For as long as I remember I have had a way with babies. I gravitate to them in every situation. If there is a baby in the room, you will find them in my arms. In 2018 when I sent my youngest off to nursing school, and in an effort to keep me from drowning in my tears, she prompted me to pursue my dream job. I immediately began training as a postpartum doula and newborn care specialist. Along the way, I identified a particular need for overnight newborn care, although I offer my services anytime, day or night. I continue to learn and grow in my desire to service the needs of young families.

Children are the most precious gifts of our lives.

Parenting is the most challenging job of our lives.
 
I believe every child deserves the best start in life. I hope my support will be a link in a positive chain reaction which will foster the nurturing love each child needs to thrive.
