Spencer Greenway Newborn Care Specialist in Portland, TN
About Spencer
Hi! My name is Spencer. I'm a mom of five, a Newborn Care Specialist, a Postpartum Doula, and I've been working with newborns and new parents for the past eighteen years. I've always been a nurturer, and infant care came naturally to me. I began as a nanny, and found I was particularly drawn to positions with families who were welcoming new babies. I took my first newborn care class in 2014, and my passion grew from there. I took every class I could register for, read books, took every popular infant sleep course, etc. and then, in 2017, I became a mom for the first time. Admittedly, I expected things to be easy. I was an expert on newborns and young infants. When I say I was taken aback. Y'all. I was taken aback. Postpartum kicked my butt, and I was left wondering why nobody had told me about this part. When I could finally make my way through the hormonal fog, I had a newfound purpose. I was going to add Postpartum Doula to my skillset, so I could make sure no new mom was left alone, confused, or without support in those first few sacred postpartum weeks/months. Since then, I've had the privilege to work with many different families over the Nashville area. There is nothing more important to me than helping to make your first few weeks with your new baby feel safe, peaceful, cozy, and beautiful. I will be there to support in any way you need me to be, during the day or overnight. I look forward to meeting you and your family. Thank you for sharing this special time with me.
