Are you sick of wasting time and energy wondering what you need for baby and yourself? Don't know where to start with creating a registry?

You Make the Baby,

I'll Make the Registry

Entrusting me to create your baby registry will give you mental and time freedom, as I have spent many many hours researching and using all of the items you want and need for your newborn, baby, and yourself.  There are so many things to do to prepare for baby... researching and creating a registry does not need to be one of them!

Create My Registry

If you’re feeling nervous and unprepared about what you need for baby and yourself, you’re not alone. 

For years I have worked with people, just like you, who are having the exact same concerns:

  • I think I want to breastfeed, does this mean I don't need bottles?  If I do, what kind?  Should I avoid plastic?
  • There are so many types of carriers (or bassinets or _____).  Which one should I pick?
  • I don't have time to research sound machines / swaddle sacks / pacifiers / etc.  How do I know I'll choose the best one for me?
  • Nobody talks about postpartum recovery.  How do I know what I will actually need?
  • What stroller works best for my lifestyle?  What if I would like more kid(s) in the future... does it accommodate more seats?

If you can relate to any of the above, I can help.

 

But before I get into that, allow me to introduce myself…

Hi, I’m Olivia

I’m a psychiatric nurse practitioner, former newborn night nurse, and mom of three, who specializes in helping women make the transition to motherhood.

As a fellow mom who’s walked the path of pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and early parenting three times, I understand how overwhelming and exhilarating this journey can be. Coupled with my education and professional experience, as a perinatal (pregnancy and postpartum)-mental health certified provider, I am well suited to provide the support you need to move through and ENJOY this time.

 

My Journey Into Providing Support for Motherhood Started Back In 2014... 

when I was working toward my Masters in Nursing.  I began working as a newborn night nurse, taking care of newborns in their homes overnight while their parents slept and/or between feedings if they were breastfeeding, and providing education and support for the new parents.  I realized that caring for these newborn babies, and supporting and educating their parents about their care brought me so much joy.  Then, I started working as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, and focused solely on this clinical work and teaching for many years.  

And One Day, Something Amazing Happened…

A couple years into having my own practice, I realized that the patients I most enjoyed seeing were those who became pregnant and/or postpartum while I was treating them.  While working with this population, I realized that much of what they were struggling with was answers and support around pregnancy-related topics, anxiety about birth and the unexpected aspects of postpartum, and baby care.  Unfortunately, educating them about some of these topics does not fit neatly into my role as their psychiatric provider.

At the same time, my sisters, friends, and myself were having babies, and I found myself feeling so happy and passionate when I was able to help someone make a decision during pregnancy, talk through something they were struggling with, or simply suggest a type of bottle or sleep sack.  At one point, a loved one told me that she "would not have been able to do postpartum" without me, and I knew that providing this type of support is how I wanted to use my passion in the next stage of my career.

 

This Is Why I’m Writing To You Today

I am now able to use my professional knowledge and experience, coupled with my personal experience of helping many new parents, and my own experience as a parent of three to provide widespread education and support to new parents all over the globe.  Aside from being with my family, there is nothing that makes me happier than talking with an expecting parent about pregnancy or labor and delivery, talking through baby gear, helping parents-to-be complete postpartum planning, or educating around all things baby.

I have spent the time and energy gaining professional education and experience, researching guidelines and professional societies high and low, Googling anything you will ever think to Google, and learning through personal experience, so that you do not need to invest this same time and energy and can focus on your journey to becoming a parent.  I am thrilled to be your support in motherhood.

Are you ready to get your baby registry off your to do list?


Then let’s do this. 

No more worrying about what you do and do not need, when you will have time to research products and spent countless hours reading blogs, and whether or not you should believe that stranger pregnant with her first kid who says you need that viral bottle warmer.

My Create My Registry service is here to solve all of the above.  You will complete a survey to inform me of your lifestyle (ie traveling, active, homebody, professional, small living space, etc.); your preferences (ie convenience, cost, aesthetic items, organic, etc.); and more, and I will use your survey results to create a COMPLETE registry of everything you need for baby and yourself, so you can focus on your pregnancy, caring for yourself, and your family.
