Ratings and reviews
We are so grateful for the support and care Joan provided during those first few weeks home with our newborn son. As first-time parents, we were overwhelmed and unsure of what we were doing, and she brought so much experience, knowledge, and reassurance. She helped us establish a schedule for both the baby and ourselves, taught us so much, and gave us the confidence to feel more comfortable in our new role as parents. Most importantly, we trusted her completely with our newborn son, which gave us incredible peace of mind during such an important and overwhelming time. We would highly recommend her to any new parents!

Joan was the absolute best. She was and still is such a blessing to our family. We are first time parents, and from the minute we brought our daughter home from the hospital she was invaluable to us. She taught us so many important skills and best practices that we still use today, even now that our daughter is 2. Joan will always be a part of our family, and we will always appreciate what a loving, reliable, sweet, knowledgable baby nurse and friend she was to us at such an important time of our lives. I cannot speak highly enough of what a wonderful experience we had with Joan when she was with us in the early months of our daughter’s life.

Joan played an integral role in the early lives of all four of our children, including our twins, serving as their baby nurse. From the moment she joined us, her warmth and nurturing spirit created an atmosphere of comfort and reassurance. Her extensive knowledge and experience shone through in every interaction, whether she was soothing a fussy baby or offering us practical advice during those sleepless nights. Joan didn’t just care for our little ones; she also provided us with emotional support, guiding us through the challenges of parenthood with patience and understanding. Her presence made a world of difference, allowing us to navigate those busy early days with more confidence. We often found ourselves leaning on her expertise and insights, which eased our worries and made us feel more equipped as parents. Reflecting on that time, it’s clear that we would have struggled immensely without her support. Joan was not just a caregiver; she became a cherished part of our family, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she did for us.

Joan is magnificent! We had her stay with us after both of our children were born. She helped with all aspects of our newborn adventures, including sleep training, nursing, bathing, and general care. Her help was invaluable and educational. She taught us so much and provided loving, gentle care when most needed. I have recommended her to many friends over the years. We feel very lucky to have had Joan in our lives!

Joan is a gem of a newborn specialist. She comes with a lot of experience and expertise that assures that your baby is good hands. She is incredibly calm and creates serenity in the home. She was our calm after the storm of a traumatic birth experience. She took charge as soon as she arrived, while maintaining a quiet presence in our home. She is very organized and takes the mental load of newborn care, allowing mom to heal both physically and mentally.

We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Joan. She was an absolute gift to our family and we genuinely did not want our time with her to end. From the very beginning Joan taught us so much and made those early newborn days feel infinitely more manageable. She helped our son learn to sleep through the night, guided us through his feeding and sleep needs, and prepared us for what to expect as he got older. As first time parents having someone with her knowledge and experience was invaluable. We learned so much from her and always felt completely comfortable trusting her guidance. Joan also took care of everything you could possibly think of from bottles and baby laundry to helping us figure out what we actually needed and keeping everything organized. She was always one step ahead and made our lives so much easier. Beyond how incredible she is at her job, Joan was simply such a pleasure to have in our home. She is warm, caring, dependable, knowledgeable, and someone we trusted wholeheartedly with our baby. She truly became part of our family during our time together. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Joan. She is truly fantastic and we are so grateful for everything she did for us.

Joan took care of both of my children from the day they came home from hospital for 8 weeks. She taught me how to take care of my babies and to have the best routines. Joan brings calm and peace to the home in a way I can’t even describe. She doesn’t just care for the baby, she cares for the whole family. Joan became part of our family. She is meticulous and professional and if I could have her here always I would. I would recommend Joan to any expectant parent- she has a true gift and is the absolute best!
- Beth H.
Joan is the absolute best. She cares deeply, leads with confidence, loves and knows babies so well, and is a wonderful teacher. She is a true professional and a pleasure to be around, while she helps care for your newborn. She taught us so much with our first child and also our second. I cannot recommend her enough.
