What Our Clients Say
As first-time parents, we were naturally apprehensive about caring for a newborn. Melissa's extensive knowledge of babies and baby care immediately put us at ease. Her expertise was evident in every aspect of her work, from feeding and diaper changes to soothing techniques and sleep routines. Under her care, we never once felt the need to intervene, as her competence inspired complete trust.
What truly set Melissa apart was her holistic approach to caring not just for our baby, but for our entire family. She showed remarkable empathy and support for me as a new mother, understanding the physical and emotional challenges of the postpartum period. Her thoughtful gestures, such as preparing the nursery chair with warm blankets for middle-of- the-night feedings, exemplified her attentiveness and care. The fact that she did laundry and cleaned bottles and pump parts was tremendously helpful during those early weeks
