THE SAFETY OF OUR PROVIDERS AND THE FAMILIES THEY SERVE IS OUR TOP PRIORITY. LEARN HOW.
The months leading up to the arrival of a baby can be a whirlwind. However, things don’t calm down after the baby is born. In fact, the real busy season doesn’t begin until you bring your baby home for the first time.
A newborn care specialist (NCS) can help families adjust to their new normal as they welcome their bundle of joy to their home by providing their time, attention, and knowledge to the new baby and their parents.
An NCS can help your family during the first 12 – 16 weeks of your baby’s life, providing care and comfort to the entire family and helping you settle into a new routine.
If you are expecting a baby or have recently given birth, here are some reasons you may want to consider hiring a newborn care specialist to help your family adjust.
There’s no denying that having a newborn in the house is tiring, especially in the first weeks when your baby is still adjusting to a sleep schedule. As a parent, you need to get some rest so you can take care of your little one.
A newborn care specialist can take over the night shift, managing bottle feedings, diaper changes, and midnight soothing to help your baby fall back to sleep. That way, you can get the rest you need to care for your baby during the day.
In addition to being awake when your baby needs something, a newborn care specialist can help establish healthy sleep routines. Newborn care specialists are experts at helping babies learn how to self-soothe and get to sleep to ensure they will be able to fall asleep (and stay asleep) as they grow. They can keep track of feedings and changes to identify patterns and recognize concerning behaviors quickly.
While having a new baby is an uncommon event in your life, newborn care specialists are accustomed to it. They understand the importance of a routine for a family and can help you settle into one that works best for your situation.
After the first few weeks at home with your newborn, you might be thinking about going back to work. Whether you are working from home or going to the office, making the transition after having a baby is challenging. Let your NCS know when you will return to work so they can simplify the transition.
New moms can have difficulties breastfeeding. A newborn care specialist can help you figure out the best way to breastfeed your baby and offer support as needed.
They are accustomed to working with new moms and can give one-on-one guidance to ensure you and your baby settle into a breastfeeding ritual that works for both of you.
It’s a good idea to hire a newborn care specialist before your baby arrives. That gives you time to meet qualified candidates and get comfortable with them.
