About me

I’m Amanda :) I’m a Night Nanny and Infant Caregiver with 20 years of experience supporting families and caring for children from the newborn stage through early childhood (and beyond). I bring a warm, calm, and intuitive approach to helping babies—and parents—feel cared for, supported, and loved. I’m currently completing my training to become a Postpartum Doula and Newborn Care Specialist, deepening my skills in newborn sleep, feeding, recovery support, multiples care and gentle nighttime routines. Families often describe me as a “baby whisperer” and “real-life Mary Poppins.” I have a background in teaching, psychology, and Master Life Coaching, with studies in child development, attachment, trauma-informed care, and emotional regulation—all of which guide my responsive, heart-centered approach. I’m Infant/Child/Adult CPR certified and experienced in supporting healthy sleep routines, emotional attunement, and nurturing environments. My care style is gentle, playful, and grounded in child-centred connection. Whether I’m feeding, burping & soothing a newborn, playing with a toddler (helping soothe tantrums or find ease & connection in transitions), or helping parents find more play or rest in parenting, I bring compassion and genuine love for the work I do & the families I get to care for. When I’m not with little ones, I also support parents and children as a Play-Based Healer and Family Coach, helping families navigate big emotions, communication, and connection. If you’re looking for calm, caring daytime infant/postpartum care or nighttime support for your baby (or babies!), I’d love to be part of your family’s journey. 💜 Supporting families in these early days & being part of your family's care team is truly an honour. I look forward to getting to know you & your little one(s)! :)

Service introduction

Newborn Care Services I provide gentle, loving care for newborns while supporting parents to rest, recover, and feel their best. Nighttime Care (8+ hours): I help babies sleep, feed, and get their needs met throughout the night, including diaper changes, bottle/pump care, and breastfeeding support (bringing baby to you) —so parents can enjoy a full night’s rest, knowing their baby is cared for and supported with love. Daytime Care (4+ hours): I support babies and families in the newborn stage, helping with sleep, feeding, cuddles, and adjusting to life with a new little one—while also assisting siblings and parents in creating a calm, nurturing home environment. This can be a beautiful and tender time of new and learning. It's okay to let someone guide, support and care for you too as you become new parents or seasoned parents with a new baby in the home. Every shift is designed to ensure babies feel loved and cared for, and parents feel supported, rested, and confident their baby is in good hands.
