Expert newborn care in the comfort of your home
Bringing a newborn home is magical, but it can also feel overwhelming.

You’re learning so much with your baby and your new life all at once.
Having experienced and compassionate help during this time can result in more rest, more confidence, and more space to actually enjoy your baby instead of being in survival mode.
That is where Audrey comes in.

Testimonials
We have twin babies who were born premature and required a lot of care once they came home from the NICU. Audrey was referred to us for help as an overnight newborn care specialist, and came to us when the babies were about 3 months old. Audrey also supported us regularly during the day for several months. Immediately, I felt relaxed in Audrey’s presence, and her passion and care for the babies was clear from the very beginning. Audrey was instrumental in providing education and compassionate support as we navigated first-time parenthood and newborn twins, helping set up routines and schedules that resulted in our babies now sleeping 12 hours at night and napping throughout the day. As an anxious first-time mom, the care Audrey provided for my babies and the ease I felt in her presence was absolutely priceless. I would highly recommend her to any parents seeking support.
-Alexis
Audrey provided excellent and detailed care for our newborn girl on nights. It is so hard to find someone who would take care of your baby the way that you do, but we found this with Audrey. She made sure that all of our daughters needs were met and having her allowed us to be more rested to take care of her in the morning. We also learned a lot about our daughter‘s cues from her and the knowledge she gave us was priceless. Better than we imagined. A great experience all around.”
-Shay and Nav
We were so grateful to have Audrey as our newborn care specialist. She cared for our baby from the tender age of three weeks up to eight months, and her support was invaluable during that critical time. Audrey's kindness and gentle nature were always evident in her interactions with our little one, putting us completely at ease. She was incredibly reliable and diligent, completing every task with efficiency and care. Her communication was always clear and proactive, keeping us informed and reassured. Furthermore, her expertise with all the baby equipment was a huge help, as she handled everything with confidence and skill. We wholeheartedly recommend Audrey to any family seeking exceptional care for their newborn.
