Emily has been nothing short of amazing for our family through both of my pregnancies, offering a mix of virtual and in person newborn care expertise, education, and postpartum doula services.

You can tell just how passionate she is about the work she does. We trust her fully and we couldn't recommend her services enough!!

Emily at Meet Your Milestone has helped us through so many challenges and milestones over the years! We are so fortunate to have had her expertise, advice and support during the first several years of our daughter’s life. From sleep training to potty training, to practicing consistent boundaries and routines Emily has supported us through it all. I still continue to rely on her advice whenever we seem to be entering a new phase with my daughter.
- Katy Johnson
I’m so glad Emily helped me realize it’s never too late to start sleep training. A routine can be established and sleep habits can be improved. Thanks to Emily my toddler is able to be put down awake, sooth herself to sleep and sleep through the night. One of the amazing side affects of a healthy sleeper?! My health! Mommas don’t have to run on 4 hours of sleep and caffeine. Book Emily TODAY no matter what age or where your child is at in their sleep journey!
- Jennise Morin
Emily was incredible in helping us transition into being new parents and hitting our milestones. She helped navigate sleeping through the night, starting solids and feeling more confident in the challenges we faced. I would highly recommend her Emily as her expertise and collaboration will help you thrive!
- Abbey McErlean
I highly recommend working with Ms. Emily if you want to up your skills and your knowledge in nannying and taking care of children. I hired Emily to mentor me in the nannying field and she truly knows what she is talking about. I feel like I gained so much from only a few sessions with her. I am very grateful to have found Ms. Emily. I hope you can have the same experience with her as I did!
- Casandra Bretschneider
Emily was so great for our newborn, she met us where we were at as parents, providing us education and information around sleep, swaddling, feedings, hygiene, etc. She allowed us parents to make informed decisions around our baby’s care and was supportive. She is communicative, knowledgeable, and supportive, definitely recommend her services!
- Tia Edmons
Emily is extremely knowledgeable with everything kids and childhood development. Emily actually inspired me to become a nanny myself during the COVID pandemic. Here I am, 6 years later, STILL nannying and loving it, which would not have been possible without YOU!! When I transitioned into becoming a mother myself, she helped educate me on specifics regarding the newborn, infant & toddler phases, helped coach me with potty training (amazing tips and tricks that work!), and most importantly my post pardom support. You are inspiring, exemplary and elite, and I would hire you again and again and again!
- Marisa Rios
Emily is an absolute treasure. I've learned so much about the domestic staffing world and professional nannying through her mentorship. Her guidance was thoughtful, practical, and tailored to my needs—she truly meets you where you are. Save yourself years of trial and error in this space and book a mentoring session with her!
- mac Marley
I highly recommend Emily and Meet Your Milestones. Our family dynamic benefitted from Emily’s childcare expertise as our family grew. She supported us and our three kids from newborns to toddlers to school age kids. Emily’s approach is loving and consistent while understanding each child is different.
- Liz Sheehy
Ms Emily is truly a professional. She has changed the way I engage with children. Aunts, uncles, friends, all say I am so good with their kids after working with Emily. I highly encourage parents, new or old, to consider booking a session with her!
- Tyler Denahan
Emily's knowledge and expertise far surpassed anything I expected. There is no one size fits all plan- she curates the support plan to meet your family's specific lifestyle and needs. She is extremely passionate about helping children and parents reach goals that make daily life flow easier, especially regarding sleep training, which once seemed like an impossibility for us. I highly recommend!
- Kelsey Jay
We hired Emily when our second was a newborn. She established a feeding and sleeping schedule, which made our lives as parents exceptionally easier. She also helped me build my confidence up as a new mom of two. Her techniques encouraged our daughter to successfully reach milestones at appropriate times, something we would’ve never been able to accomplish so seamlessly on our own.
- Melissa Kamelhair
I highly recommend Emily and her expertise in her field! She has a strong passion and intention to support parents in any given area! Her compassion shines brightly through her work!
