Hi! I’m Annika and I am excited to support you through your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. For as long as I can remember I have been fascinated by pregnancy and birth and I took many opportunities to explore this interest further during my time as a student at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University. I currently serve as a Public Health Project Coordinator for Scott County, working to promote healthy families. I truly believe that the start to every healthy family is birth, and every family deserves a beautiful and empowering experience, whatever that looks like to them. My goal is to best prepare you through your pregnancy so you have the best chance of having your ideal birth. I will help ensure that you are well informed so you can be your best advocate, and I will advocate for you when I’m asked. My care is comprehensive, evidence based, and rooted in the multitude of education I have received, which is ever ongoing. I hope to build a connection with you and your family that will last long after your birth. I cannot wait to meet you! I serve the West Metro area of the Twin Cities.

Recent newborn care specialist reviews near Mankato

"Libby is a great help and also emotional support. She is quick to do any tasks such as cleaning or helping in any way with the baby, as well as happy to be a listening ear. I've had a great feeling about her since first meeting her."

— Christine M., review of Libby Halbmaier June 2025

Having Libby's support during the early days with our baby was truly a gift. She brought such a calm, gentle presence into our home and cared for Brooks with so much love, patience, and intention. From the moment she arrived, I felt completely at ease. She’s the kind of person you feel you can instantly trust, which is incredibly comforting during such a tender and vulnerable season. Not only did she care beautifully for my son, but she was also a quiet, steady support to me as a new mom. Whether it was helping with small tasks, offering encouragement, or simply being a calming presence in the room, her thoughtfulness never went unnoticed. She has a true gift for caring for both babies and mothers. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to any family looking for support in the newborn stage and well beyond. She is kind-hearted, respectful, nurturing, and incredibly trustworthy—someone you’ll be grateful to have by your side during one of life’s most precious (and often overwhelming) seasons.

— Ashley M., review of Libby Halbmaier June 2025

"We had postpartum support from Libby after the birth of our second child, and we’re so thankful we did. I had a c-section, and recovering while caring for both a newborn and a toddler was no small task. Having Libby there made a huge difference. Those first few weeks can be really challenging. Libby came to our home and helped care for our toddler, giving us the chance to manage the busy moments—like bath time or prepping meals. Just knowing she would show up made everything feel more manageable. She was always punctual, kind, and ready to help with a positive attitude. On top of all the practical support, she was also there emotionally—I really appreciated being able to talk with her during that time. Libby is amazing, and we’re so grateful for everything she did for our family. I would absolutely recommend her. She’s someone you can trust."
