Erica's Child Care Services

Erica's Child Care Services I am a professional baby nurse, trained in infant sleeping techniques. I have over 24 years of experience with close to 1,000 clients.

I assist mom's with breast feeding methods and I have specialized experience with twins and premature babies. As a Newborn Care Specialist, my main objective is to teach Mom and Dad how to take care of their newborn. I have worked all over the United States and abroad. I work with singles, twins, triplets, and premature babies with or without reflux and apnea monitors. I train the baby to sleep through the night, put babies on a feeding schedule, and provide postpartum care for mothers with or without Cesarean sections. In addition to training newborns and teaching parents, I take care of all baby needs including feeding, bathing, play, interaction, and organizing the baby's nursery. I am CPR trained and have specialized education in child care management from the University of Pennsylvania. I teach newborn care classes for expecting parents. I also provide one-on-one guidance and positioning for mothers on effective breastfeeding. I am flexible and work in many different settings. My client is my first priority, and I will watch older kids if necessary. I am organized, patient and will work with you to create an optimal schedule for you and your children. After my time with a newborn and family has ended, I continue to make myself available to my clients by phone for any questions on newborn care that arise. References available upon request. MY SERVICES AS A BABY NURSE
A Baby Nurse is also known as a Newborn Care Specialist. I am trained and highly skilled in all areas of infant care and parental education. Entrusting the care of your baby to an outsider can be daunting, and you can relax in the knowledge that I have over 20 years of extensive experience. FEEDING ROUTINE
Your baby can stick to a feeding routine and I will show you how to make it happen. I am well versed in the techniques to ensure your baby always has plenty of milk. Some mothers worry that their baby is not getting enough to eat while other mothers experience the discomfort of sore ni***es. Whatever feeding issues you encounter, I will guide you through it. If you are having trouble feeding your baby, you are not alone. I have helped hundreds of new mothers through a rocky start. If your baby is not quite latching on, I can offer plenty of advice. SLEEP ROUTINE
I hear lots of stories about months of sleepless nights. I teach your baby to sleep on a schedule that fits yours. When it comes to naptime, your baby will fall asleep naturally. It is so important for you and your spouse to take care of yourselves and get your rest. A set sleeping schedule also makes it infinitely easier for baby to eventually transition to sleeping through the night.

Note :
Leaving the skin on pork, especially when cooking pork belly or shoulder, can help retain moisture and create a more flavorful, juicy result due to the fat layer beneath the skin acting as a natural barrier against drying out during cooking.
