Bringing a baby into the world is beautiful—but let’s be honest, it can also feel completely overwhelming. Whether you're preparing for your first or adding to your growing family, the early days are filled with big emotions, sleepless nights, and questions you never knew you'd have. That’s where a newborn care consultant can be your biggest support.
At Cradle and Care Consulting, I offer gentle guidance and expert support to help new and expectant parents feel calm, confident, and cared for. Wondering how that support looks in real life? Here are five ways I can walk alongside you during this precious (and sometimes chaotic) season:
1. Personalized Preparation—Before Baby Arrives
From planning your nursery to packing your hospital bag, pregnancy can feel like a never-ending list. A prenatal session with me helps bring clarity and calm to your plans. We’ll talk about your birth preferences, how to prepare for those early days at home, and what newborn care basics you really need to know (and what you can skip).
✨ Bonus: You’ll get a free Prenatal Prep Checklist to stay on track and feel more ready.
2. Gentle Guidance During the Fourth Trimester
The early newborn days can be beautiful—but also exhausting and full of doubt. I’ll support you as you settle into your new rhythm with weekday text support and weekly check-ins. Think of me as your go-to resource for questions, routines, and emotional reassurance—without judgment or pressure.
3. Feeding Support That Fits Your Family
Whether you are breastfeeding, pumping, using bottles, or a mix of all three, feeding your baby should feel supported. While I’m completing my IBCLC certification, I currently offer guidance on breastfeeding basics, bottle-feeding techniques, paced feeding, and building confidence in your feeding journey—whatever that looks like for you.
4. Newborn Sleep That Respects Your Baby (and You)
Newborn sleep isn’t about strict schedules—it’s about tuning into your baby’s rhythms and creating peaceful patterns. I take a responsive, developmentally appropriate approach that helps build healthy sleep foundations while honoring your baby’s cues.
5. Emotional Support That Truly Gets It
Sometimes, what you need most is a calm, experienced voice who simply gets it. With Cradle and Care, you’ll have unlimited weekday text check-ins that allow you to ask those “is this normal?” or “am I doing this right?” questions in real-time. As well as a weekly video check- ins
for you momma or any concerns you may have ran into, that we haven't texted about. Because peace of mind matters.
Let’s Take This Journey Together
You don’t have to figure this all out on your own. Whether you’re prepping for birth or finding your way through those early newborn weeks, I’m here with calm support, evidence-based education, and a lot of heart.
With care,
Brandi
