About Briana "briie"

Hi, I’m Briie, a Certified Newborn Care Specialist and Sleep Consultant with 8 years of hands-on experience supporting families across the U.S. I’m also the founder of Trusted Hands Staffing (THS), a caregiver placement agency that connects families with experienced, dependable newborn, prenatal, labor and postpartum professionals. I support families who want expert care without the stress of guessing. I bring calm leadership, clear routines, and real-world newborn knowledge so you can recover, bond, and rest. What I help with: - Overnight newborn care (feeding support, soothing, diapering, safety, parent rest) - Newborn sleep foundations (day/night confusion, routines, settling techniques) - Feeding support (breastfeeding support, paced bottle feeding, intake guidance) - Postpartum support planning (what to expect, recovery support, household flow) - Staffing support through THS (matching you with vetted NCS, Doulas and postpartum doulas) If you want nurturing support with structure, I’m a great fit.

We had a wonderful experience working with Breana for six weeks after our baby arrived. As first-time parents, we especially appreciated her knowledge and guidance on everything from formula preparation and feeding to understanding our baby's cues and everyday newborn care. She was reliable, communicative, and always punctual, and we felt completely comfortable trusting her with our baby. Her support brought a sense of calm to what could have otherwise been an overwhelming first few weeks. We're incredibly grateful for her care and couldn't have imagined navigating those early weeks without her!

No one really prepares you for postpartum as a dad. I thought we’d just figure it out, but those first weeks were harder than I expected. My wife was exhausted, and I didn’t always know how to help in the ways that actually mattered. Getting support through Briie and her team made a huge difference. Having someone experienced in our home brought calm and structure when we needed it most. It gave my wife space to recover and gave me the confidence to step up. I’m really glad we didn’t try to just tough it out.

As a first-time mom, I can’t say enough good things about Briana. From the moment she walked in, she brought such a calm, confident energy that immediately put me at ease. She cared for my newborn baby boy like he was her own and was incredibly patient and gentle. She not only helped me understand my baby’s cues and sleep patterns, but also supported me through those overwhelming early weeks with so much compassion and knowledge. I always felt comfortable asking questions and truly learned so much from her. I’m beyond grateful for Briana’s care, professionalism, and genuine kindness. She made the transition into motherhood so much smoother. I’d recommend her to any new parent in a heartbeat! 💙
