I am a native Seattleite dedicated to providing calm, compassionate, and non-judgmental care during the early postpartum period. I strive to be a steadying presence amidst the many changes that come with welcoming a new baby. I firmly believe that postpartum care should encompass the whole family, ensuring each member feels nurtured and heard every step of the way. I provide experienced and research-backed support to families in the first weeks with their little ones. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions. I would love to become part of your support system!

Esme took care of our baby overnight for five nights while I was visiting my parents in Seattle, and I highly recommend her! She was extremely professional and sympathetic. She took amazing care of our baby who wakes up multiple times a night. I appreciated the detailed notes she sent every morning about our baby’s overnight wakes, feeds, diapers, etc. Knowing our baby was in safe hands let us finally get a full night’s rest!

I can’t say enough about the gift Esmé was to our family. My wife and I welcomed twins while also caring for a 2-year-old, and Esmé seamlessly entered our home with a calm, grounding presence. She was a quiet, yet deeply reassuring support, helping us navigate our many questions and tending thoughtfully to our needs as postpartum parents. Without judgment, she skillfully supported and guided the care of both our newborns and our toddler. We are incredibly grateful for the care she provided our family during such a tender time. She helped our experience shift from surviving to thriving.

As a Parent Educator, I’ve known Esmé for years and have had many opportunities to witness her work with infants and families across a wide range of settings. She brings a rare combination of calm presence, deep empathy, and attentiveness to the emotional needs of both infants and caregivers. Her ability to listen, respond thoughtfully, and create a sense of safety is remarkable. She has a deep understanding of child development and the unique transitions and challenges of the postpartum period. Anyone working with Esmé will feel supported, respected, and cared for. She is exceptional. I can't recommend her enough.
