Are you a first time parent worried that your baby doesn’t come with an owners manual? Or maybe this is your 5th child and you just want a full night’s sleep! Or perhaps you have a preemie coming home from the NICU and you are nervous and overwhelmed. I can help you with that! I am a former licensed registered nurse with a neonatal certification and am a certified lactation educator transitioning to a newborn care specialist career. I love building confidence and knowledge in parents and trust and comfort in infants. I would love to help you transition your preemie or newborn from hospital to home, do overnight care so you can get some much needed rest, and help with special needs. I am based in Soldotna but am happy to travel as far away as Wasilla. I am a NCC certified and licensed previous nurse with 10 years Read more of experience with preemies, infants, multiples and special needs. Please contact me for positions beginning May 2020 and beyond, overnight or 24/7 care, and positions lasting anywhere from 4 weeks to 6 months. I can accommodate you!
