I’m Donesha, a newborn care specialist with 11 years of experience working alongside medical teams in some of the most specialized newborn care settings. My background includes five years in a Level 4 NICU, five years in a Level 3 NICU, five years in Labor and Delivery Transition, and five years in postpartum care. Working as a CNA in these environments gave me an invaluable, hands-on education in neonatal care and deeply shaped my understanding of newborns across the full spectrum of needs.
My experience has made me comfortable and confident supporting complex situations, including premature infants, cleft palate, colic, GERD, reflux, apnea, oxygen therapy, NG and G-tube care, and NICU-to-home transitions. I also have extensive experience supporting families with multiples and infants with disabilities. I’m skilled at recognizing changes in a newborn’s condition, and I bring a calm, knowledgeable, and reassuring presence into every home I work in.
When working with families, I provide overnight newborn care, feeding support, diapering, bathing, nursery organization, bottle washing and preparation, breastfeeding assistance, sleep training, medication administration, and newborn care education. I’m passionate about sharing evidence-based guidance and helping parents feel confident in caring for their little ones, while always respecting their individual wishes, preferences, and parenting styles. I genuinely love being part of such a special season in a family’s life and feel honored to help make the transition into parenthood as smooth and supported as possible.
Outside of work, I’m a self-described girly girl and true foodie! I love brunch, shopping, listening to music, and anything pink. I bring that same warm, vibrant, and caring energy into every home I enter, and I love building meaningful connections with the families I support.
