Summit Session #16: Mindful Newborn Care With Grace Koinange Wrap-Up

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

Summit Sessions is an ongoing educational series for nannies, educators, newborn care specialists, and other private service professionals who gather monthly for inspiring and cutting-edge experts and leaders in their fields, who will offer their expertise in the form of live, interactive sessions for attendees to take in, ask questions of, and learn from.

 

 

 

 

OUR TAKEAWAYS:

In this session, we talked about everything from bringing the baby home, to helping parents develop their parenting style, and checking any preconceived notions at the door.

Sometimes all of our experience and education are not necessarily needed and what the family actually needs is for their care provider to be fully present in every situation. In this session, we’ll learn how to be more intuitive and read non-verbal cues from the parent so we can provide the support their family truly needs.

Grace has worked in the childcare industry for 18 years as a Pediatric Sleep Consultant and Lactation-Trained Newborn Care Specialist. She currently works privately as a concierge Parent Coach and full-spectrum Postpartum Doula.

Grace loves supporting growing families by nurturing new parents, building confidence in infant-parent relationships, and helping them to navigate all newborn challenges like breastfeeding struggles, sleep issues, and more. Grace’s approach is all-inclusive and she adheres to the respectful parenting approach.
