Alexia

Trained Newborn Care Provider

What I love most about working with newborns and new mothers is being able to support families during such a special and sometimes overwhelming time. I also love watching babies grow, learn, and reach new milestones while being able to support new mothers along the way.

When I am not soothing your precious newborn to sleep, you can find me going for a walk, trying a new coffee shop, spending time with family and friends, or curled up with a good book!

Client Love Notes

MR Family

Alexia has been an incredible source of support during my transition into motherhood and since bringing our baby, Brielle, home. Alexia helps with everything from hands on infant care to household tasks, like washing bottles and doing the baby’s laundry.

Alexia is wonderful at calming Brielle when she is fussy and is especially skilled at gently transitioning her into the bassinet for naps without waking her. She keeps Brielle on her feeding schedule, handles diaper changes, and supports her development through activities such as reading and regular tummy time.

Having someone who understands my daughter’s daily routine and helps support her developmental milestones has been a true blessing. It gives me peace of mind knowing that Brielle can stay comfortably at home while maintaining her normal routine.

Alexia is caring, dependable, attentive, and supportive. I highly recommend her to any family looking for help with their newborn!
