Meet Stacy

I grew up in Brazil and now call New Jersey home. I live here with my husband and our cat, Wolfie. I love a good iced chai, especially when I get the pumpkin cold foam just right.

What a Night Looks Like

01

When I arrive

We'll take a few minutes to talk about how the day went, when your baby last ate, and how you'd like the night to go. If it's been a long day, a quick handoff is plenty. You don't need to tidy up or have a routine figured out before I come over.

02

While you rest

When your baby wakes, I'll be there to feed, change, and comfort them. If you'd like to nurse, I'll bring your baby to you and take over again when you're ready. We'll decide together what you'd like me to wake you for and what I can handle while you sleep.

03

In the morning

Before I leave, I'll tell you how the night went and when your baby last ate and slept. We can take a minute to talk through anything on your mind, so you know where to pick up when I head home.

What's Included

We'll start with what works for you and your baby. I'll take care of your little one and help with the small things that can feel like a lot when you're tired.

  • Feeding, your way. I'll give your baby a bottle or bring them to you to nurse, whichever works for your family.
  • Changes, cuddles, and settling. I'll handle diaper changes, burping, and soothing, and follow safe sleep practices when it's time to put your baby down.
  • A few things off your list. I'll wash bottles and pump parts and help with baby laundry as time allows. There's something nice about reaching for a clean bottle or finding a fresh onesie right when you need one.
  • A quick update before I go. I'll tell you when your baby last ate, how they slept, and anything you'd want to know as you take over.
