POST-PARTUM
Baby
My purpose is to prepare, encourage, comfort, guide & support:
Newborns spend their first weeks of life adapting to their new environment and bonding with their parent(s). Routine and structure are just as important as giving your baby warmth, love, security, attention, cuddles, smiles and gentle talk. I provide solutions to help you get your baby used to the outside world.

Bathing, changing, nail trimming, swaddling, soothing techniques
Choosing baby products
