Something exciting is happening… 📝🤍

My first blog post is now live on my website!

“Is Powdered Infant Formula Safe? What Every Parent Should Know About Formula Prep”

I’m starting with a very important and often underrepresented topic for new parents because so many families use formula, yet few are ever taught how to properly prepare and handle it safely. With so much conflicting information online, my hope is to make these conversations feel less overwhelming and more approachable for parents navigating the newborn stage. My resources are linked at the end for you to read on your own time.

My goal with this blog is to provide approachable, trustworthy education that helps families feel more supported and informed during the newborn stage.

I can’t wait to keep sharing more with you all!

Newborn Care Specialist & Postpartum Doula | Charleston, SC Area Powdered infant formula isn't sterile and that matters, especially for newborns. Learn CDC and WHO-recommended steps for safe formula preparation and storage.

🎼These are a few of my favorite things!🎶

From days that I’m nap-trapped to the overnights I’m soothing baby, my bag goes with me everywhere!
And she’s filled with all kinds of stuff!
This post is all about the things that I personally use and love while on the job with our most precious clients 🤍

I personally love posts like this because it inspires me to shop more (don’t tell my husband 😜). Hopefully it inspires you too!
I’d love to see what’s in your bag 👀

Well hello there… Long time no see!
Did y’all know we’re supposed to post on this thing?? lol
Kidding 😅
But seriously though, I haven’t disappeared. I’ve been quietly lurking these last few months just enjoying the content and working working working!
It’s been extremely busy over here. Between holidays, clients, my book, family, and all the moving pieces in my life (naturally happening at the same time 😵‍💫) it’s been difficult getting into a steady rhythm. And I know I’m not the only one feeling that..
However, in the middle of the busy, it’s important to take a step back, and look at the bigger picture. There’s so much that has happened and is happening in my life for which to be thankful. All the little things are piling up, but once I lay them all out, it creates a beautiful picture that shows the blessings in my life.
This gift basket is a great example 💝 Given to me by my last wonderful clients, it holds many different individual pieces that once put together with love, show a job well done, a happy client, and an end to a beautiful chapter in the book of “Childcare by Liz.”
To all you gentle readers, I hope you all have been well!
I can’t promise regular scheduled programming, but I can promise lurking (and liking of course) ❤️😉
Remember to count your blessings today!
Love ya 🫶🏻

With a major winter storm potentially affecting dozens of states, we recognize the concerns many have about stored milk.

Updated to add: A stand alone freezer will maintain temperature for 48 hours in a power outage if unopened. A freezer compartment within a fridge will maintain temperature for 24 hours if unopened.

[Image Description] Photo of a wintery scene. Text on top reads, "Power outage? Worried about your frozen milk? Try to keep the freezer door completely shut while power is out. Once power is restored, check to see if there are any ice crystals that remain in the bags. If there are any frozen ice crystals at all, it may be refrozen." The La Leche League USA logo is below the text.

It’s so heartbreaking that families feel like they have to resort to these types of products to make it through the day…
If you ever feel overwhelmed or wish you had an extra set of hands, please call someone! Even if it’s not me, it’s okay to ask for help ❤️
