I'm a Newborn Care Specialist, Pediatric Sleep Consultant and a Lactation Counselor. As a Pediatric Sleep Consultant I am prepared and able to put to use all my knowledge to help your little one get into a routine you and your family are comfortable with. A bachelors in business and raising three children have helped me fine tune my skills in multi tasking and being self-motivated to establish daily routines independently. I'm comfortable with a multitude of jobs; establishing daily feeding and sleep routines, assisting with breastfeeding support or mixing formula, preemie care, managing stressful situations and guiding children in safe learning through supporting "learning through play". In addition to these items I tidy the child's area, clean/sanitize bottles (pump parts) and am happy to complete infants laundry. My renewal training in CPR and First Aid through the American Red Cross is current and will be renewed in July, I'm Read more a non smoker, am comfortable with dogs and cats (we have 2 large dogs and a cat ourselves) and I have my own reliable transportation. The care and safety of your child is of utmost importance to me. Please look over my profile and contact me with any questions. Warmest regards, Christy Prefontaine Specializing in newborn and infant care are my passions. I'll assist you in getting your infant sleeping through the night. Becoming a mom and watching my own children grow has been a lifechanging experience and ultimately what drove me to work in the childcare field. I am a pediatric sleep consultant (My Sweet Sleeper), newborn care specialist (Newborn Care Solutions) and a Lactation counselor (Healthy Children Project). My CPR and first aid certification are up to date. I've loved every moment of raising my now 3 teenagers (yes, even the teenage years). My favorite part of my job is when I'm able to assist parents in feeling more confident in their ability to care for their infants. When baby sleeps everyone else can sleep. Please feel free to message me. I would love to discuss how we can work together.

Christine is amazing! She is very organized and professional. She gives you a detailed report of when your baby takes naps, feeds, play time ect. She is very knowledgeable and I learned some tricks for when my baby has gas or spits up sometimes. She has an impressive resume and work experience so I felt very comfortable with her. Thank you ! I look forward to working with you.
