Hi, there!

As a certified NICU occupational therapist with a decade of experience caring for hundreds of medically fragile babies in one of the largest NICUs in the United States, I'm here to help you learn the skills that will allow you to parent your baby with purpose and create the most positive NICU experience possible. Because you're not a bystander, you're a parent.

There are a lot of newborn courses and support out there, but your NICU parenting journey will have unique needs that general newborn care won't help you solve or understand.

If you want to learn how to navigate the NICU and be there for your baby in the most supportive ways possible, you're in the right place.
