Nanny since 2005. Birth, postpartum & sibling doula since 2021. I offer attachment-based and responsive caregiving that honors baby's natural rhythms and supports secure bonding, healthy development, and optimizes nervous system regulation. I do not follow rigid sleep training or feeding schedules for infants less than 12 months, and may not be the right fit for families seeking those approaches. I listen to baby's early cues and respond to them immediately. Certified in Infant SIDS & Sleep Safety, Lactation Support, babywearing, elimination communication, and early childhood development educator. Experienced with cloth diapering, special needs care, and supporting newborns through teenaged kids. I'm also a certified prenatal yoga teacher and former after-school cooking instructor at Aki Kurose Middle School. I bring calm, creative, and grounded energy into the home to help children feel safe, engaged, and nurtured-while supporting the whole family with presence and care.
