NEWBORN CARE SPECIALIST ~ 👶 I'd love to support you! I provide overnight newborn care support so you can rest. Bringing home a baby can be amazing, but also exhausting. Sleep deprivation is real and lack of sleep can lead to postpartum depression. NEW PARENT COACH~ ❤️ I wish I knew then what I know now! I'm a seasoned mom of two grown boys and have gained a wealth of knowledge both personally and professional through hands-on experience, and on going education. Parenting isn't a cake walk! It's hard work and exhausting, mixed with amazement and exhilaration of love and joy like you've never experienced before. SLEEP TRAINING~ 😴 Sleep is essential to every family’s well being. Without adequate sleep, children cannot function at their best, nor can the parents. Every child’s sleep needs can differ. What works for one child and their family might not work for another, which is why my sleep training approach is catered to your family's goals and curated to your child's specific needs and abilities. Allow me an opportunity to end sleep deprivation for your family!

We used Suzi's services for newborn overnight support and I would 100% recommend that ANYONE I know with a newborn use her services! Helpful and caring all the way.

Suzi’s transformational support helping us with our son has been a game changer for our family. We were beyond frustrated when our son regressed with his potty-training. Suzi stepped in and gave us the confidence and calm we needed to help our little guy. She was spot on with all of her advice and as soon as we began to implement her suggestions my son responded quickly. Before we knew it, he was back to being a super pooper again. We are so grateful to Suzi for her reassurance, wise support and understanding. I highly recommend Suzi for all of your potty-training needs. Her knowledgeable and heartwarming sessions will help you get through any stuck place you may feel with potty training.

Suzi was wonderful. In the span of a few hours she was able to take us from rocking our screaming two month old to sleep (this could take an hour+ Multiple times a day) to being able to put her down drowsy in a regular crib (switched from bassinet) within minutes the very same day! I was floored. She continues to be responsive to any questions or issues that have come up. We cannot thank Suzi enough for giving us our sanity back.

Suzi is a wonderful and loving care giver and helper. She has a lot of experience in different areas, however she specifically helped me as a newborn care specialist for my newborn, as well as a potty training expert for my 2 year old. She is reliable, trustworthy and an expert in her field. I can’t recommend her enough!

Suzi was so wonderful. I am potty training my 20 month old. I was not sure if I was doing everything right. I reached out to Suzi, and she was so quick to respond. She called me that night and talked me through all my challenges. She was very knowledgeable and had great analogies and examples to put my mind at ease about our potty training journey. She was confident and empathetical to our family situation. She even gave more advice outside of our potty trying questions. She encouraged us to reach out again with updates and any other questions we may have. After our consult the next day we were already seeing improvements by the things we implemented. Suzi was wonderful!! I am so relieved that I reached to her for help!
